Your skin makes oil because it needs it to survive and it’s impossible to get rid of because it’s constantly making more. So when you use a water-based product, the active ingredients have a hard time penetrating your skin’s natural oil barrier to get deep into your skin and do the dirty work of cleaning deep into your pores. Instead, they just stay on the skin's surface leaving the root of the problem largely untouched.
Our magical stack of ingredients blends the very best from both science and nature for acne into one kit, which work together in harmony to create a magical symphony that one lonely ingredient couldn’t achieve on its own. And you know what they say, strength in numbers, or in our case, clear skin.
