Perricone MD ACNE RELIEF Prebiotic Acne Therapy is a simple, comprehensive collection to safely, gently and effectively treat and prevent the most troublesome acne, while maintaining a
healthy skin balance, for clearer, blemish-free skin.
WHAT REALLY CAUSES ACNE?
Excess oil, acne-causing bacteria and inflammation are the culprits, and you need to treat all three. Unlike most other acne treatment systems on the market, Perricone MD Acne Relief selectively targets and gently treats all three causes of acne. Many other brands rely on harsh chemicals that just kill all bacteria, or aggressively strip your skin of necessary hydration, which can upset skin’s natural microbiome and lead to irritation and dryness. Rather than wash away all oil and bacteria, Acne Relief is designed to work symbiotically with skin’s microbiome to remove excess oil while simultaneously depositing hydrators that won’t dry skin out.
FEATURING
Sucrose: Gentle Exfoliation.Milled to an ultra-fine sugar, this mild exfoliant helps unclog pores and remove excess dirt and oil without over-drying or stripping skin. Sucrose helps support a healthy skin balance and rinses off quickly and easily, making it ideal for gentle yet effective cleansing.
Citrulline: Fight & Visibly Reduce Redness.First discovered in watermelon, this alpha-amino acid helps promote a clearer, more even-looking complexion. Nourishing and soothing, it is an ideal way to visibly minimize redness associated with blemish-prone skin.
Lactic & Succinic Acids: Target Acne-Causing Bacteria.These short-chain fatty acids help minimize blemishes by working alongside salicylic acid to target acne-causing bacteria for clearer-looking skin. They also provide gentle yet effective exfoliation for smoother, more even-looking skin.
Squalane: Hydrate & Nourish.Found naturally in skin and can be derived from olive oil, squalane hydrates without making skin look or feel greasy. This lightweight hydration is ideal for oil and blemish-prone skin as it helps maintain optimal hydration without leaving skin feeling greasy and clogged.
Salicylic Acid: Pore-Minimizing, Anti-Acne Exfoliation.A beta-hydroxy acid (BHA), salicylic acid is a non-prescription treatment for acne and oil-prone skin. It quickly and effectively exfoliates and removes dead skin which can clog pores and cause breakouts. Because it is oil-soluble, salicylic acid is easily absorbed into pores for targeted, more effective results.
