acne prone skin

Your skin type is acne prone if

• you see blackheads and whiteheads

• you experience multiple breakouts

• you see visible inflammation

“A healthy, strong barrier is key when dealing with acne. Our science-backed formulas clear and unclog pores while simultaneously safeguarding the skin’s barrier. It’s a clinical system that prioritizes skin health without skin-stripping – just barrier-friendly botanicals and acne-fighting medicines.”

– Beth Bialko, esthetician and Bioelements Senior Director of Education

Best Ingredients for Acne Prone Skin

Treat acneic skin with effective acne medicines and innovative clinical ingredients, to clear, heal and prevent new breakouts:

Sulfur

An OTC acne treatment that treats + clears acne, absorbs excess sebum, unclogs pores and denies growth of acne bacteria; prevents acne + PIH; calms inflamed skin. Gentler than benzoyl peroxide.

Pro pick: spot defy

Salicylic Acid

A sebum-soluble, beta hydroxy acid OTC acne treatment that helps exfoliate dead, pore-clogging skin, and reduces breakouts, blackheads and whiteheads.

 Pro pick: pore thing

Glycolic Acid

Skin clearing, pH balanced alpha hydroxy acid derived from sugar cane; its small molecule size stimulates ‘desquamation‘, or cell removal of the skin‘s uppermost layers to target clogged pores, dark spots, rough texture, and more.

Pro pick: daily meds

Best Facial for Acne Prone Skin

Bioelements Acne + Pore Clearing Treatment

A medicinal, clinical treatment to clear active acne, unclog problem pores, and help prevent breakouts as it repairs, strengthens and soothes the skin barrier. Deep pore cleansing is followed by a mandelic acid + PHA chemical peel calibrated precisely for acne, with 3 increasing corrective activity levels that meet individual acne needs. It’s followed by a purifying, oxygen-infused power treatment and a sulfur + resorcinol power mask to further clear acne as it calms and heals skin.

Acne Prone Skin Pro Tip

Tempted to pop a pimple? Don’t! At-home extractions, especially when done with extractor tools, can harm your skin and worsen acne. Stick to professional skin care – and see a licensed esthetician for effective, safe extractions.
