This is the cleanser with a borderline cult following in the acne-prone skincare world — and for good reason. It combines three exfoliating acids (AHA, BHA, and PHA) with 0.5% Salicylic Acid to get into your pores and clear out the oil, dirt, and buildup that turns into breakouts, without leaving your skin feeling tight or stripped afterward.
What sets it apart from a basic acne wash is the calming side of the formula. It's loaded with SOME BY MI's Truecica blend — tea tree, Centella Asiatica (cica), and mugwort — to soothe your skin while the acids do their job, plus Calamine to help keep oil in check. Over 70% of the formula is naturally derived, and it's been tested specifically for sensitive, acne-prone skin.
