CeraVe Psoriasis Cleanser with 2% Salicylic Acid, 8 oz — Fragrance-Free, Ceramides & Hydration

CeraVe Psoriasis Skin Therapy Cleanser is a dermatologist-developed, fragrance-free medicated wash that gently cleanses, helps remove scales, and supports the skin barrier with ceramides and sustained hydration.

This 8-ounce formula combines 2% salicylic acid and lactic acid with CeraVe’s three essential ceramides, niacinamide, urea and MVE delivery technology to address the needs of dry, flaky, and psoriasis-prone skin. It is non-comedogenic, allergy-tested, and formulated without fragrance, so you can use it on the face, hands, or body as part of a targeted skin care routine.

How does this cleanser help reduce visible scaling and flaking?

The wash contains 2% salicylic acid, a keratolytic ingredient that helps loosen and remove accumulated dead skin cells and scales. Lactic acid adds mild exfoliation to smooth rough texture while hydrating components help prevent tightness after rinsing.

• 2% salicylic acid targets scale buildup and helps ease flaking.
• Lactic acid promotes gentle surface exfoliation for smoother skin.
• Glycerin and urea lock in moisture to reduce post-wash dryness.

Will this cleanser support my skin’s protective barrier?

CeraVe’s formula includes three essential ceramides (1, 3, 6-II) to help restore and maintain the lipid matrix that preserves skin hydration. The product also uses MVE technology to deliver moisturizing ingredients gradually, helping skin stay hydrated throughout the day.

• Ceramides help rebuild and maintain the skin’s natural barrier.
• MVE delivery sustains release of moisturizers for ongoing hydration.
• Niacinamide soothes and contributes to overall barrier health.

How should I use this product in my daily routine?

Massage the cleanser onto wet skin with gentle circular motions; it works with a washcloth, loofah, or just your hands. Rinse thoroughly and follow with a moisturizing treatment — pairing with a CeraVe psoriasis moisturizer improves hydration and comfort.

• Use as a face wash, hand soap, or body wash where needed.
• Gently lather, avoid excessive scrubbing, then rinse completely.
• Apply a compatible moisturizer afterward to reinforce hydration.

Is this formula suitable for sensitive or acne-prone skin?

The cleanser is fragrance-free, non-comedogenic, and allergy-tested, reducing the likelihood of irritation or pore-clogging. As with any medicated product, introduce it gradually and consult a dermatologist if you have concerns about combining it with other treatments.

• Fragrance-free and allergy-tested to minimize irritation risk.
• Non-comedogenic to avoid blocking pores on acne-prone skin.
• Recommended for targeted use; discuss with a clinician for complex cases.

Who is this for: This cleanser is designed for people with dry, scaly, or psoriasis-prone skin who want a gentle, dermatologist-developed wash that helps remove scales while supporting skin’s moisture barrier. It’s appropriate for adults seeking a fragrance-free, non-comedogenic medicated cleanser to use on the face, hands, or body as part of a daily care routine. If you are under prescription treatments or have severe symptoms, check with your healthcare provider before combining products.
