Acne skin magic

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] As someone with blemish-prone skin who’s constantly juggling long hospital days and late-night skincare, the Sunday Riley Breakout Breakup Salicylic Acid Cleanser has honestly been such a nice addition to my routine. The texture is silky and gentle, and it gives my skin that clean, refreshed feeling without stripping it dry — which is rare for a salicylic acid cleanser. I loved how it helped calm congestion and those stubborn under-the-skin bumps that love to pop up after stress-filled weeks. After using it consistently, my complexion looked smoother and more balanced, and I noticed fewer new breakouts overall. It’s the kind of cleanser that feels effective but still comforting, making it a perfect “reset” step at the end of a busy day.

Not the results I hoped for

I didn’t notice much improvement in my acne while using this. In fact, I had several breakouts during that time—though I genuinely believe my acne is stress-related, since I tend to break out no matter what products I use. I used this both morning and night, and while it didn’t help my acne, it did leave my skin feeling clean and soft without drying it out. My only complaint about the formula is that it’s very runny; it’s a clear, watery liquid, and I wish it had a bit more substance. Overall, I wish I had better things to say, but honestly, it didn’t make any difference in my breakouts.

Powerful and Effective!

Loving this Breakout Breakup Cleanser by Sunday Riley! Love the brand already, and now I’ve got one more product to add to my favorites list!! Powerful and effective- but gentle enough to not dry my skin out. It’s helped with small breakouts and the overall look of my pores, clean and gunk free!

Keeps skin clean and clear

It has a kind of watery texture but it seems to be effective in keeping my skin clear. It doesn't seem to overly dry out my skin either. So far a great edition to my skin care routine.

Clearer Skin Starts Here

I tried the Sunday Riley Breakout Breakup Salicylic Acid Cleanser, and I’m really impressed with how it’s cleared up my skin. The gel-to-foam formula feels fresh and cleansing, yet my face never feels tight or dry afterward — just clean and balanced. The salicylic acid helps clear out clogged pores and excess oil, while fermented pear juice gently exfoliates for smoother skin. After a few uses, my skin looks clearer, less congested, and more even. It’s now a go-to cleanser for my blemish-prone skin that still needs hydration and gentleness.

Gentle and effective for breakout prone skin

It’s definitely a great cleanser based on salicylic acid that helps with breakouts. The texture is watery and lot of product coming out from the tube than expected. It’s gentle and very effective though.
