Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne Stress Control Power-Clear Scrub clears breakouts and fights acne at the source before it starts. This creamy face scrub is formulated with 2% salicylic acid, a proven acne treatment, along with soothing green tea and cucumber to soften skin and prevent over-drying. The scrub features MicroClear Technology, which boosts delivery of acne medication deep into pores where breakouts begin. Exfoliating microbead-free beads sweep away dirt, oil, and dead skin cells to unclog pores, reduce excess shine, and visibly improve skin texture. Ideal for daily use, this oil-free and dermatologist-tested face scrub leaves acne-prone skin soft, smooth, and refreshed—no matter what kind of day you’ve had.

Ideal for oily T-Zone
I have a very oily T-Zone. This is the only face wash that has been perfect for that area of my face without drying out my cheeks. Any other face wash for oily skin ends up giving me dry patches on my cheeks and around my mouth. This one has the perfect balance.

Really helps to control breakouts, and gentle enough for my sensitive, dry skin.
I prefer the non-scrub version of this, but it’s hard to find now, and the scrub version is essentially the same thing with some not-really-exfoliating beads in it. I love salicylic acid for treating breakouts, and 2% is a pretty good concentration, and I find it non-irritating and non-drying in a rinse-off formula. I have dry skin that’s prone to hormonal, monthly breakouts, and this wash really helps my skin in staying clear without drying it out or causing irritation (but I’m generally good with skincare acids). I usually put it on when I first get in the shower and then rinse it off after a couple minutes, sort of like a treatment mask. I still need a cleansing balm or oil cleanser to remove makeup, but I always followup with this. It’s gentle enough that I can use it daily with no issues. I’ve also started my nephew on this to treat his teenage acne and shaving irritation, and it’s making a noticeable difference (along with a Colleen Rothschild acne spot treatment – the Gentle & Clear one). I think that the Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne Stress Control Scrub is one of the best on the market for face wash, and it performs better than more expensive washes I’ve tried.

Great for washing your face and cleansing skin
It worked pretty well. My daughter loves it. Was surprised of how big the container was. It has a good so be scrubbed texture, which feels well on your skin when you’re washing your face. Overall, it is a really good product.

Pair with the Cream Wash
I keep this in the rotation, along with the cream wash from the same line, as a daily reset — a light exfoliating scrub with 2% salicylic acid that doesn’t overdo it. The texture has just enough grit to feel like it’s doing work without wrecking your skin barrier.It’s oil-free, rinses clean, and pairs well with my minimalist skincare approach. I use this in the morning when I’m not using Paula’s Choice BHA, and it holds its own. Helps keep pores clear without drying me out or leaving any greasy residue behind.The 4.2 oz tube is compact enough to travel with, and it’s become part of my weekly rhythm when I need something consistent but not clinical.— Curated by Jaded John | #OrderlyCleanDesign

Great for pimple control
Favorite face wash product! Having a hard time finding in the store, so grateful I can still find it on Amazon. This is the only face wash. I swear by if you have trouble acne, you can’t get rid of.

Gentle but Effective Scrub
I’ve been using this Neutrogena Acne Stress Control scrub daily, and it’s been a game-changer for my skin. It exfoliates without being too harsh, helps calm down breakouts, and even reduces redness. I love that it leaves my face feeling clean and refreshed without drying it out. The cucumber and green tea in it make it feel soothing, which is perfect for stressed skin. Definitely a go-to in my skincare routine!
