Board-certified dermatologist Dr. Joshua Zeichner, MD, says this clarifying cleanser is the real deal: It's powered by a cocktail of acids that work overtime to keep the skin clean and radiant.

Yes, this clarifying cleanser is a bit on the pricey side, but Dr. Turner says it's a great double-duty product investment to consider: "This is a great face wash to use because it uses a combination of salicylic, glycolic, and lactic acids, he explains. "It also utilizes exfoliating beads for a physical exfoliate."

Board-certified dermatologist Dr. Jaimie Glick, MD says this foaming cleanser is great for dealing with maskne, since it easily removes built-up dirt and oils. He also likes that it has a 5.5 pH, which is the optimal pH that keeps the skin balanced, and secures a healthy microbiome and skin barrier function.
