Severe Acne Routine 1

Severe Acne Routine 1

The Severe Acne Routine 1 brings together four skincare products designed to support the care of acne-prone skin. The benzoyl peroxide cleanser helps target acne-causing bacteria, while the toner and niacinamide serum complement the routine by addressing excess oil and the appearance of blemishes. The Centella moisturiser helps soothe the skin and maintain hydration.

Important: This routine contains 10% benzoyl peroxide, a high-strength concentration that can cause dryness, irritation, peeling, or redness. It may be too harsh for sensitive skin or frequent use. Severe, painful, or scarring acne may require assessment by a dermatologist.

Products Included in This Routine

1. PanOxyl Acne Foaming Wash Benzoyl Peroxide 10% 5.5oz: A high-strength benzoyl peroxide cleanser that helps target acne-causing bacteria and manage acne breakouts. Use cautiously, follow the label directions, and avoid contact with the eyes and lips. It may bleach towels, clothing, and bedding.

2. Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne Stress Control Triple Action Toner: An acne-focused toner designed to help manage blemishes and excess oil. Check the ingredient label before use, as acne toners may contain exfoliating ingredients that can increase irritation when combined with other acne treatments.

3. NineLess B Boost 10% Niacinamide Serum: Contains niacinamide to help regulate the appearance of excess oil, improve the look of uneven skin tone, and support a smoother-looking complexion.

4. SKIN1004 Madagascar Centella Cream 75ml: Helps moisturise the skin and soothe the feeling of irritation, supporting skin comfort while using acne-focused products.

Benefits of the Severe Acne Routine 1

• Acne-focused cleansing: Benzoyl peroxide helps reduce acne-causing bacteria and manage breakouts.

• Oil management: The toner and niacinamide serum help address excess oil and blemish-prone skin.

• Improved skin appearance: Niacinamide may help reduce the appearance of post-blemish marks and uneven skin tone over time.

• Skin comfort: Centella moisturiser helps maintain hydration and soothe the skin.

• Moisture barrier support: Using a moisturiser helps reduce the risk of excessive dryness associated with acne treatments.

How to Use

Because this routine contains a strong benzoyl peroxide cleanser and an acne toner, do not introduce every product at full frequency immediately.

1. Cleanse: Begin with the PanOxyl 10% wash cautiously, following its label instructions. Consider starting less frequently, such as two or three times a week, if tolerated. Avoid leaving it on longer than directed.

2. Apply toner: Use the Neutrogena toner only if its ingredients and label directions are compatible with your skin and other acne treatments. If it contains exfoliating acids, avoid using it in the same routine as the PanOxyl wash initially.

3. Apply serum: Use a small amount of the NineLess B Boost 10% Niacinamide Serum as directed. Reduce frequency or stop if irritation develops.

4. Moisturise: Apply SKIN1004 Madagascar Centella Cream 75ml to help keep your skin hydrated.

5. Use sunscreen in the morning: Finish your daytime routine with a broad-spectrum sunscreen of SPF 30 or higher. Reapply as directed, especially when outdoors.

Stop or reduce use if you experience significant burning, swelling, or persistent irritation. Seek medical advice for severe, painful, deep, or scarring acne rather than relying on an over-the-counter routine alone.

Who Is This Routine For?

The Severe Acne Routine 1 is intended for people dealing with persistent blemishes, excess oil, and acne-prone skin. However, the 10% benzoyl peroxide cleanser is a strong treatment and may not be suitable for daily use or for sensitive skin. A gentler concentration, such as 2.5% to 5%, may be better tolerated by some people. For severe acne, professional dermatological guidance is recommended.
