TajPrice weekly update: CeraVe facial cleansers in Iraq, September 15–22, 2026.
Prices are in Iraqi dinars (IQD). We ranked products by cross-store price spread, which is the gap between the lowest and highest price found at available stores. A higher spread means comparing stores can save you more. The best price is the lowest we found; the high price is the highest. Prices can change, so check the live page before checkout.
1) 
Cereve Hyarding Facial Cleanser for Normal to Dry Skin — Best price: 19,000 IQD. Highest: 41,600 IQD. Available at 2 stores. Spread: 118.9%. Potential saving: 22,600 IQD. This is the biggest price gap on the list. It is a gentle, non-foaming, moisture-focused option for drier skin. If your skin feels tight after washing, this type of formula is worth checking, but only if you compare first. At the low price it is a strong deal; at the high price you are paying more than double.
2) 
CeraVe Acne Control Cleanser — Best price: 19,000 IQD. Highest: 35,000 IQD. Available at 3 stores. Spread: 84.2%. Potential saving: 16,000 IQD. This daily acne-focused wash uses 2% salicylic acid to help with clogged pores and breakouts. The gap is still huge. With three stores to compare, you can avoid paying the top price. If you have acne-prone skin, check all three stores before buying.
3) 
CeraVe Foaming Cleanser for Normal to Oily Skin - 236ml — Best price: 16,800 IQD. Highest: 24,000 IQD. Available at 4 stores. Spread: 42.9%. Potential saving: 7,200 IQD. This 236ml option is widely available and often a go-to for oilier skin. Even with four stores, the highest price is 7,200 IQD more than the lowest. That is enough for another basic skincare item, so compare before you grab the first bottle you see.
4) 
CeraVe Blemish Control Cleanser - 236ml — Best price: 21,700 IQD. Highest: 31,000 IQD. Available at 4 stores. Spread: 42.9%. Potential saving: 9,300 IQD. This blemish-focused option with salicylic acid has the same percentage spread as the previous item, but the cash saving is even bigger because the starting price is higher. If you are treating blemishes and also want to protect the skin barrier, compare the four stores carefully.
5) 
CeraVe SA Renewing Cleanser — Best price: 22,000 IQD. Highest: 30,000 IQD. Available at 4 stores. Spread: 36.4%. Potential saving: 8,000 IQD. This option combines salicylic acid, niacinamide, and ceramides to help smooth rough texture. The best price is 22,000 IQD, but the highest is 30,000 IQD. That 8,000 IQD difference is real money, especially for a product you may repurchase.
6) 
CeraVe SA Smoothing Cleanser- 236ml — Best price: 23,750 IQD. Highest: 30,000 IQD. Available at 2 stores. Spread: 26.3%. Potential saving: 6,250 IQD. This 236ml option is another salicylic acid choice for rough or bumpy skin. It is only in two stores, so the competition is lower, but the gap is still worth checking. If you want this type of formula, do not assume both stores are close in price.
7) 
CeraVe Hydrating Cleansing Foaming Oil / (FR) — Best price: 26,000 IQD. Highest: 32,250 IQD. Available at 2 stores. Spread: 24.0%. Potential saving: 6,250 IQD. This cleansing oil is designed to remove makeup, sunscreen, and excess oil without stripping moisture. It costs more than the basic cleansers, so a 6,250 IQD gap matters. If you wear sunscreen daily, this type of first cleanse can be useful, but compare the two stores first.
8) 
CeraVe Foaming Cleanser for Normal to Oily Skin - 473ml — Best price: 31,000 IQD. Highest: 38,000 IQD. Available at 4 stores. Spread: 22.6%. Potential saving: 7,000 IQD. This is the 473ml size, so the price is higher. The percentage spread is smaller, but the cash difference is 7,000 IQD. If you buy the large size to last longer, check the price per ml, not just the shelf price.
9) 
CeraVe SA Smoothing Cleanser - 473ml — Best price: 37,000 IQD. Highest: 45,000 IQD. Available at 2 stores. Spread: 21.6%. Potential saving: 8,000 IQD. This larger size is one of the priciest items in the list. The spread is smaller in percentage terms, but an 8,000 IQD saving is still significant. With only two stores, comparing is quick and can protect your budget.
10) 
CeraVe Hydrating Cleanser for Normal to Dry Skin - 236ml — Best price: 19,000 IQD. Highest: 21,000 IQD. Available at 3 stores. Spread: 10.5%. Potential saving: 2,000 IQD. This 236ml option has the smallest gap this week. The difference is only 2,000 IQD, but that is still a small win. If you are already buying other items, add it to your comparison list; if not, it is less urgent than the top items.
What this means for shoppers in Iraq: The biggest savings this week are in the first two products. The top item has a 118.9% spread, meaning the highest price is almost double the lowest. For acne-prone skin, the second item can save you 16,000 IQD. In general, do not assume pharmacies, beauty shops, and online stores are aligned. Prices move weekly, and stock levels affect them.
Quick buying tips: Check the exact size and version. A 236ml and 473ml bottle are not the same value even if the label looks similar. For salicylic acid cleansers, use them as directed and do not over-wash. Look at the final checkout price, including delivery if you order online. Confirm expiry date and authenticity when buying from a new store. The best price is only useful if the product is genuine and suitable for your skin.
