How do such cleansers do all this?

Let"s take a look at the anti-bacterial ingredients. Tea tree oil is a natural antiseptic which kills bacteria. Benzoyl peroxide forces oxygen into the pores. The bacteria that causes acne thrives best in a place without oxygen hence benzoyl peroxide kills the bacteria by making the pores inhospitable for bacteria. Triclosan is another antiseptic that kills bacteria outright. There are many more antibacterial ingredients that might be used in fighting acne, these are but just 3 of the most common ingredients.
