You probably thought you'd no longer have to deal with breakouts once your teen years were over — but adult acne is real, and it's frustrating AF. One study, published in The Journal of Clinical Aesthetic Dermatology, found that up to 85 percent of women and 15 percent of men experience adult acne.

When it comes to acne, the right skin care routine can make all the difference. And what better place to put together a roster of pimple-fighting products than the beauty mecca, Sephora? You can find everything from cleansers to toners to spot treatments to masks that'll effectively keep your skin healthy and clear.

Here, we've rounded up 13 best-selling acne products at Sephora so you can finally enjoy a zit-free complexion.

The first step to clearer skin? Finding the right facial cleanser. Salicylic acid is a great ingredient to look for in a cleanser because it's gentle yet effective. The 2 percent salicylic acid in this cleanser exfoliates dead skin cells and unclogs pores, while the zinc compound in the formula minimizes excess oil and calms inflammation.
