The CeraVe SA Cleanser Bar 128g is a dermatologist-developed salicylic acid cleanser bar that gently exfoliates rough, bumpy skin while helping to protect the skin barrier. This soap-free, fragrance-free bar pairs chemical exfoliation from salicylic acid with physical exfoliation from spherical jojoba beads, sweeping away dead skin cells to leave the skin on your body feeling smoother and softer without stripping away moisture.

Why This Cleanser Bar Works

Rough, bumpy texture on the arms, legs, and thighs often comes from a buildup of dead skin cells. The CeraVe SA Cleanser Bar tackles this with dual-action exfoliation. Salicylic acid, a beta hydroxy acid, loosens the bonds between dead cells, while gentle jojoba beads physically buff the surface. Three essential ceramides and hyaluronic acid work alongside them to keep skin comfortable and hydrated rather than tight or dry.

Ideal For

This bar suits anyone dealing with rough, bumpy, or textured skin, including the feel of keratosis pilaris (often called chicken skin) on the arms, legs, and shoulders. Its fragrance-free, soap-free, non-comedogenic formula makes it a good fit for sensitive skin. If your skin is very dry or reactive, start a few times a week and build up to daily use as tolerated.

Every ingredient in this salicylic acid cleanser bar has a role to play:

• Salicylic Acid: a beta hydroxy acid (BHA) that chemically exfoliates and helps clear buildup around hair follicles

• Jojoba Esters (Jojoba Beads): spherical beads that provide gentle physical exfoliation without harsh scratching

• Three Essential Ceramides (1, 3, 6-II): help restore and maintain the skin's natural protective barrier

• Hyaluronic Acid (Sodium Hyaluronate): draws in and holds moisture to keep skin hydrated

• Glycerin: a humectant that supports softness and all-day comfort

Use the CeraVe SA Cleanser Bar in the shower or bath, primarily on the body:

1. Wet your skin and the bar with warm water.

2. Rub the bar between your hands or directly onto the skin to build a light lather.

3. Massage over rough, bumpy areas such as the backs of the arms, thighs, and legs.

4. Rinse thoroughly and pat the skin dry.

Avoid direct contact with the eyes. Keep the bar dry between uses on a draining dish so it lasts longer.
