Obagi Medical CLENZIderm M.D. Foaming Cleanser 2% Salicylic Acid, Pack of 2 — Cooling Menthol for Oily, Acne-Prone Skin

Obagi Medical CLENZIderm M.D. Daily Care Foaming Cleanser is a lightweight acne cleanser with 2% salicylic acid and menthol designed to help unclog pores and refresh oily, acne-prone skin.

This foaming facial cleanser from Obagi Medical uses 2% salicylic acid (a BHA) combined with cooling menthol to lift away excess oil, dead skin, and surface impurities. Formulated for normal to oily skin, it works as the cleansing step in a daily acne-focused routine and is part of the CLENZIderm M.D. Acne Therapeutic System, a line developed to support clearer-looking skin with physician-endorsed ingredients.

How does this cleanser target oily, acne-prone skin?

The 2% salicylic acid penetrates into pores to help loosen and remove trapped sebum and exfoliated skin cells, while the foaming texture helps rinse away debris. Menthol provides a cooling sensation that can make skin feel freshly cleansed without heavy residue.

Is this cleanser suitable for sensitive skin or daily use?
