Acne in a few words

Acne is a skin condition that manifests itself as pimples, blackheads, cysts or redness. It occurs when the pores of the skin become clogged due to excess oil, dead cells or bacteria. This buildup leads to inflammation, creating the visible blemishes on the skin.

Acne can appear in a variety of places, including the face, back, shoulders, and chest. Although it is often associated with adolescence due to hormonal changes, it can affect people of any age. The main causes include hormonal imbalances, stress, poor diet, certain cosmetic products, and genetic factors.

Essential active ingredients

Salicylic acid, a BHA (Beta Hydroxy Acid), is a powerful and essential ingredient for deeply purifying and exfoliating the skin. Naturally derived from willow bark, it has the unique ability to penetrate the pores to clean them by eliminating excess sebum, impurities and dead cells that clog them. This makes it an ally of choice for treating and preventing blemishes, while refining the skin's texture. Thanks to its anti-inflammatory and soothing properties, salicylic acid is ideal for acne-prone skin, leaving a feeling of freshness and visibly clearer and balanced skin from the first applications.

Gluconolactone, a polyhydroxy acid (PHA), is a gentle yet powerful ingredient that’s ideal for sensitive and acne-prone skin. Unlike AHAs and BHAs, it gently exfoliates the skin, removing dead skin cells without causing irritation. In addition to its exfoliating properties, gluconolactone acts as a humectant, drawing moisture into the skin for enhanced hydration. With its antioxidant properties, it also protects the skin from external aggressors, while helping to prevent blemishes. It’s a great choice for reactive skin types looking to gently rejuvenate.

Azelaic acid is a versatile ingredient that offers many benefits for the skin, including the treatment of acne, rosacea and pigmentation spots. Thanks to its antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties, it helps reduce blemishes while soothing redness and irritation. In addition to calming sensitive skin, azelaic acid promotes a more even skin tone by reducing post-acne hyperpigmentation. Gentle and well-tolerated, it is suitable for daily use, without major risk of irritation or sensitivity to the sun, making it an ideal ally for reactive skin looking to gently regenerate.
