The Best Skincare Routine for Acne-Prone Skin: Clear, Calm, and Balanced

Introduction

Acne-prone skin requires care that addresses excess oil, clogged pores, and inflammation without causing further irritation. At Pt78 Skin and Body, our vegan and cruelty free formulations use Certified Organic and Naturally Derived botanicals to rebalance and support the skin. Combined with clinical-strength solutions from SkinCeuticals, you can achieve a routine that clears, calms, and protects for long-term results.

Step 1: Clarify with a Gentle Cleanser

The first step in tackling acne is removing impurities while protecting the skin barrier.

• Pt78 Foaming Cleanser: Deeply cleanses with Lilly Pilly and Quandong extracts, leaving skin refreshed without stripping.

• SkinCeuticals Blemish and Age Cleansing Gel: Combines glycolic and salicylic acids to clear clogged pores and reduce excess oil.

Step 2: Treat with Targeted Serums

The right serums can directly target acne and post-acne marks.

• Pt78 Shine Control Anti-Ageing Serum: With pomegranate seed oil and peptides, it regulates sebum and supports healing.

• SkinCeuticals Blemish and Age Defense Serum: Salicylic acid and dioic acid work to reduce blemishes and prevent breakouts.

• SkinCeuticals Silymarin CF Vitamin C Serum: Protects acne-prone skin from free radical damage while reducing oiliness.

Step 3: Moisturise Without Congestion

Lightweight hydration is key—skin that is dehydrated can actually overproduce oil.

• Pt78 Matte+ Balancing Moisturiser: A lightweight, shine-controlling formula enriched with licorice root and quandong to soothe irritated skin.

• SkinCeuticals Retexturing Activator: Hydrates while gently exfoliating to improve texture and prevent congestion.

Step 4: Weekly Mask and Exfoliation

Exfoliation helps prevent blocked pores and smooths skin.

• Pt78 Cut + Polish Mask: Combines fruit enzymes and clays for gentle exfoliation that brightens and smooths without irritation.

• SkinCeuticals Clarifying Clay Masque: Draws out impurities with natural clays and botanicals for clearer, more refined skin.

Step 5: Protect with Sunscreen

Acne-prone skin is still vulnerable to UV damage, which can worsen post-acne marks.

• SkinCeuticals Ultra Facial Defense SPF 50: Broad-spectrum protection in a lightweight formula that won’t clog pores.
