Skincare for Blemish-Prone Skin
Blemish-prone skin does best with less aggression, not more: a cleanser that does not strip, salicylic acid to keep pores clear, and an oil-free moisturiser so the barrier stays intact. Everything in this edit is chosen to fit that pattern. 2 products.
Skincare for Blemish-Prone Skin: a short guide
What is a simple routine for blemish-prone skin?
Cleanse with the Clarifying Gel or Purifying Mousse. Use the salicylic acid Purifying Toner a few evenings a week. Moisturise with a light, oil-free formula — yes, even if your skin is oily. Dab Acne Spot Care on individual blemishes.
Why moisturise oily skin?
Skin that is stripped tends to feel tighter and look shinier, not clearer. A light gel moisturiser keeps the barrier comfortable so the active steps are easier to tolerate.
When should I see a dermatologist?
Cosmetic skincare supports skin that is prone to breakouts; it is not a medical treatment. If acne is painful, cystic, scarring or affecting how you feel, see a doctor or dermatologist.
