Key Roleplayers
Salicylic Acid
It is a beta hydroxy acid (BHA) which is highly valued in skincare for its powerful acne-fighting properties. Its primary benefit lies in its ability to exfoliate the skin and penetrate deep into the pores, where it dissolves excess oil and dead skin cells that can lead to blockages and breakouts. By keeping pores clear, salicylic acid helps to prevent and reduce the appearance of blackheads and whiteheads, common forms of acne. It also has anti-inflammatory properties that can soothe irritated skin and reduce the redness and swelling associated with acne lesions.Â
Propylene Glycol
It acts as a humectant, drawing moisture into the skin to maintain hydration, and it also enhances the absorption of other active ingredients, ensuring they penetrate deeper for better efficacy.
Panthenol
Also known as vitamin B5, it provides deep hydration and helps the skin retain moisture, while its anti-inflammatory properties soothe irritation and promote healing, which is especially beneficial for acne-prone skin. Allantoin, a skin protectant, further soothes and calms irritated skin, promotes cell regeneration, and helps to smooth and soften the skin's texture.

HOW TO DO A PATCH TEST
Performing a patch test is a crucial step when introducing a new skincare product to your routine, as it can help you to determine whether the product/s is safe for your skin and whether you may have an adverse reaction to it. Here are the steps for performing a patch test:
- Choose a small area of skin on your inner forearm or behind your ear that is easily accessible and not visible.
- Apply a small amount of the product to the area and spread it evenly. You can use a cotton swab or your finger to do this.
- Wait for at least 24-48 hours and observe the area for any signs of redness, itching, swelling, or irritation. Â
- If you do not experience any adverse reactions after 24-48 hours, it is likely safe to use the product on your face.
HOW TO USE
Apply over face and neck with fingers or a cotton pad after cleansing.
Do not rinse.
At first, use every second day and note skin’s response, then use once or twice a day.
For daytime, always follow with sunscreen.
For nighttime, follow with the rest of your routine.
