Here are NIVEA products and practical tips for acne‑prone skin (US-focused). I included why each can help and how to use them safely.

Recommended NIVEA products for acne‑prone / oily skin

• NIVEA Men DEEP Rapid Acne Clear Face Wash — contains salicylic acid and is formulated to reduce bacteria, oil and unclog pores so it can help acne-prone skin. Use twice daily as directed. (NIVEA.com.au)
• NIVEA Men Acne Face Wash (Magnolia bark formula) — marketed to remove excess oil/impurities and help prevent acne; useful if you prefer a non‑salicylic option that still targets oil and bacteria. (NIVEA.in)
• NIVEA Purifying / Purifying Wash Scrub (Ocean Algae) — made for oily/combination skin to reduce sebum, mattify and help decongest pores; available in both wash and scrub forms (avoid physical scrubs if skin is inflamed). (NIVEA-me.com)
• NIVEA Purifying Cleansing Gel (oily/combination) — a gentler, non‑scrub cleansing gel that purifies pores and supports skin’s moisture balance; a good daily cleanser if you don’t need active acne medication. (ChickAdvisor.com)

What to look for in a product

• Salicylic acid (beta hydroxy acid) — penetrates oil-clogged pores and helps clear acne. NIVEA’s “Clear Up”/Rapid Acne lines list salicylic acid in their acne cleansers. (NIVEA.com.au)
• Oil‑control / mattifying formulas and non‑comedogenic claims — help reduce shine and lower chance of pore‑clogging. (Many NIVEA purifying/Oil Control lines are formulated for oily skin.) (NIVEA-me.com)

How to use these safely

• Cleanse gently twice daily (AM and PM). Over‑scrubbing or using harsh exfoliants can worsen acne. If using a scrub, limit to 1–2×/week and avoid it on active, inflamed pimples. (NIVEA.com.au)
• If product contains salicylic acid, follow with a light, oil‑free moisturizer and sunscreen in the morning (salicylic can increase sun sensitivity). (NIVEA.com.au)
• Patch test any new product on a small area for 48 hours if you have sensitive skin. Stop use if irritation occurs.

When to consider stronger treatment or a dermatologist

• If over‑the‑counter cleansers and good skincare routine don’t improve acne in ~6–8 weeks, or if you have widespread cystic acne, scarring, or significant redness/pain, see a dermatologist for prescription options (topical retinoids, topical/oral antibiotics, benzoyl peroxide, oral isotretinoin). (This is general medical guidance — consult a clinician for personalized care.)

Notes and cautions

• NIVEA formulations and product availability vary by region; ingredient lists can change. Always read the package label for current ingredients and directions, and choose fragrance‑free or “dermatologically tested” options if you’re sensitive. (niveausa.com)

If you’d like, I can:

• Find current availability/prices of any of the products above in US retailers (Target, Walgreens, Amazon, Walmart) and link options.
• Suggest a simple, step‑by‑step morning and evening routine using one of the NIVEA products plus compatible moisturizer/sunscreen.
