Hi Gals,
As you all know that I’ve been always raving about Ahaglow S facial cleanser. And I swear by this product as it was recommended by my dermatologist. Since I am in Canada now and just finished off my ethical salicylic acid face wash. I thought to order few more bottles of it but I decided to move on and give any other acne facial cleanser a try & I happened to buy this Clean & Clear Advantage Acne Control 3-in-1 Foaming Face Wash.
Here is my take on this product and how it can be chosen as an alternative of Ahaglow S.
Price: $ 11.55 for 240 ml from Walmart
Active Ingredients:
Salicylic Acid (2%).

Benzalkonium Chloride, C12-15 Alkyl Lactate, Cocamidopropyl Betaine, Cocamidopropyl Pg-Dimonium Chloride Phosphate, Disodium EDTA, Fragrance, Linoleamidopropyl PG-Dimonium Chloride Phosphate, PEG-120 Methyl Glucose Dioleate, PEG-80 Sorbitan Laurate, Polyquaternium-7, Polysorbate 20, Red 33, Sodium Benzotriazolyl Butylphenol Sulfonate, Sodium C14-16 Olefin Sulfonate, Sodium Hydroxide, Ext. Violet 2, Water.
My Take on the Clean & Clear Advantage Acne Control 3-in-1 Foaming Face Wash
I have used Clean & Clear regular face wash in my teenage for almost 5-6 years as I thought that was just the perfect facial cleanser for oily and acne prone skin. Anyways, the packaging; I mean the bottle is almost same but with the dispenser this time and dark purple in color. Every clean & clear bottle has different color as per its specialty. This bottle is bigger in size but very handy.
It doesn’t have harsh smell, but cleanser itself could be little harsh for sensitive skin. The consistency is same as the previous cleansers from the same brand. It’s neither very thick not too runny so I am ok with it. Even though I have the most oily skin in the world but this cleanser made my skin dried out too. But believe it or not, I am ok with it as I love to get the squeaky clean feeling after a whole day wearing makeup in office hours. It makes me feel like, it has cleaned out every tad bit of makeup from my face.
BUT for every one who is buying this cleanser, my suggestion is to get a great moisturizer handy. You can’t go without great moisturizer if you are using this face wash. I am currently using apply cider vinegar homemade toner and honey & almond moisturizer. If you forget to use a great moisturizer, your face will feel the dried out & stretchy.
This cleanser is not only helping me to achieve clean and clear face but helping minimize my facial pores, which is really important for me. Overall, I am happy to find this great alternative of Ahaglow S face Wash.
Pros:-
- Simple and handy packaging
- Dispenser to control the amount to use
- Almost no smell or perfume (Great)
- Contains Salicylic acid (helps prevent acne & remove dead skin cells)
- Squeaky Clean feeling
- Pocket friendly price
Cons:-
- Very Drying (Always use a good moisturizer)
