Formulated for blemish- or acne-prone skin, this oil-free, seriously hydrating moisturizer doubles as an acne treatment. The lightweight gel seeps right into the skin and uses salicylic acid to reduce current blemishes and prevent new ones from popping up and saying hello.
If you're already using a cleanser, moisturizer and spot treatment to help rid your complexion of unwanted blemishes, consider adding a lightweight serum to your routine as well. This serum feels like nothing on the skin but does everything from reducing the number of acne blemishes to improving skin clarity and texture thanks to 2 percent salicylic acid.
If you're looking for a more luxurious and natural option, these blemish control pads are where it's at. They use alpha hydroxy acids, tea tree oil and a blend of broccoli, blue daisy and willow bark extracts — all ingredients that work to smooth and clarify the skin after use. Plus, they're gentle enough for even the most sensitive of skin types.
Dirt, oil and makeup are no match for this skin-clearing cleanser. Each time you use it, you're helping rid your skin of breakout-causing impurities as it uses bamboo charcoal and African black soap like a magnet. You'll also love how nourished and soothed your skin feels after use due to cooling aloe.
Yes, even your makeup can help to cure your acne issue. This mattifying primer can be applied right before your foundation to help keep your makeup locked into place all day long, but it also uses 1 percent salicylic acid to heal and prevent acne. Skin will stay shine-free from day to night, pores and fine lines will be minimized and with constant use, acne will be diminished. Hello, multitasker!
