You don't have permission to access "http://www.superdrug.com/skin/cerave/b/403790" on this server. Your average face wash won’t cut it if you suffer from breakouts.

Scour the ingredients lists a little closer and you’ll find other beneficial ingredients playing the supporting roles.

Hormones in the body — particularly progesterone and testosterone — have a significant effect on sebum production in the skin at different points in the menstrual cycle – most notably in the second half of the cycle when progesterone rises, leading to an increase in sebum,' Dr Ejikeme explains. How does a skincare brand break the internet? You could ask The Ordinary, which everyone seems to have an opinion on. Or you could look to the likes of Glossier and Fenty Skin, who have hooked their cult-like followings via relatable marketing and hyper-covetable design. Acne is primarily driven by genetics but there are environmental aspects that can precipitate or aggravate it,' says skin expert Dr Ejikeme. 'These include occlusive oils, over-exfoliation, stress, poor sleep and high sugar diets. When spots do occur, touching and squeezing them can make things worse.'

If you’re after an all-round improvement to skin, look no further. This cleanser eradicated blemishes for the majority, leaving them with a clearer, healthier-looking complexion.
