looking for a good acne cleanser or scrub...

I like Paula's Choice cleansers. I use the skin balancing one which is for combination skin, followed by 2% BHA (same brand). It is not tested on animals, fragrance free, great for sensitive skin and works. Another good tip is to use the salyclic acid/BHA under the benzoyl peroxide to make it more effective..

I've been using the St. Ives facial cleanser (not the scrub, but the clear green cleanser in a transparent plastic container) for years and it works really well for me. It's got 2% salicylic acid and I find it gentle enough on my skin as well. It can be a bit drying, but if you use a good moisturiser afterwards - you're good! :) Their scrubs with the salicylic acid are good as well (the apricot blemish control one is well-known), but I prefer the cleanser for everyday use. It removes all the makeup really well as well, which is an added bonus! :))

I'm using Mary Kay Clear Proof system right now (it includes cleanser, toner, acne spot treatment and moisturizer), and I really like it! I was concerned at first because I have sensitive skin but this system is effective and did not irritate my face at all...no redness. I'd recommend it.

I don't know if anyone one else mentioned but Obagi has a great 3 part system which contains 2% salicylic acid and works really well. There is one set for normal/combination skin and one for dry combination skin. It has really helped my t-zone and completely removed my white heads and blackheads. It is also readily available on amazon.

I use Oil of Olay Regenerist. It has scrubby exfoliants and leaves your face feeling so soft. You can follow with any beauty routine afterwards.

St. Ives Blemish Control Apricot Scrub is great! It has salicylic acid in it, and it is not too harsh for my skin. It makes my skin feel so soft afterwards too!
