These acne-causing bacteria thrive in low-oxygen environments within your pores. You need ingredients that are antibacterial and will penetrate the pores to destroy those micro-organisms. Mandelic acid and azelaic acids are naturally antibacterial. Our benzoyl peroxide is micronized and penetrates directly into your pores to oxygenate and destroy the acne bacteria.
Cause 3 – Clogged pores:
Top 3 expert picks for clogged pores:

Our home peels and peeling pads are the ultimate treatment for unclogging pores.
Even after controlling your acne breakouts, some patients still have to deal with acne pigmentation & skin inflammation.
