Acne is a disease of inflammation. It occurs as bacteria, excess oil, dead skin cell buildup, hormonal imbalances and lifestyle habits conspire to clog pores and trigger breakouts. Symptoms include blackheads, whiteheads, papules, pustules, nodules, cysts and abscesses.
Early intervention is critical to help prevent it from progressing and causing scarring. While it may seem that acne prone skin can handle drying sulphates and alcohol, these ingredients dehydrate the skin's surface, causing rebound oil production and worsening symptoms. It needs products with clinically proven natural skin care ingredients to address the multiple breakout-related issues. Essential acne skin care begins with Salicylic Acid to effectively exfoliate and control bacteria and Kaolin Clay to absorb excess oil. Glycolic, Lactic and Phytic Acids further shed dead skin cells and manage post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, while Niacinamide boosts circulation and oxygenation to achieve optimal skin health and radiance. Equally important are soothing, moisturising actives like Hyaluronic Acid, Chamomile and Mallow that work together to reduce irritation and support rapid repair.
Tips to enhance your Pevonia acne care routine:
Start with our Clear-Control Exfoliator. After lightly working this Salicylic Acid face wash and acne exfoliant, let it sit for a minute or two to allow the actives to work their magic before rinsing.
Next, apply the Clear-Control Blemish Treatment. With our proprietary Super Clearing Complex of purifying, soothing and moisturising herbs and actives, it delivers fast-acting acne control.
Following with a non comedogenic moisturiser is a vital component in every skin-repairing acne solution. Our Mineral Oil-free Clear-Control moisturiser for acne prone skin provides weightless moisture as it controls the root causes of breakouts.
Masking one to two times weekly with the Clear-Control Mask will level up your acne regime. This added acne treatment expedites a healthy, blemish-free complexion.
Professional Pevonia treatments are ideal for stubborn acne treatment or those who want to tackle their breakouts quickly.
Practice acne self care for skin-clearing success. This means avoiding dietary triggers like refined carbohydrates, sugar and white flour, dairy milk, coffee, acid-forming foods, and inflammatory foods (trans-fats like hydrogenated oils and synthetic foods). Manageing stress and being consistent with a daily skin routine are essential. Keep your hands and hair away from your face, and regularly clean your phone, pillowcase and makeup brushes. Make sure that all makeup is oil-free to ensure your makeup is not undoing your efforts to clear your pores and improve the appearance of the skin.
