This Moisturiser Has Been Made For Acne-Prone Skin

I bet this is music to some of your ears, but I’m sure you’re still somewhat dubious about the title of this article.

And fair enough, I know those of you with persistent, hormonal and adult acne have tried every moisturiser under the sun – but maybe not this one.

Before I committed to writing this article, I asked a friend of mine with hormonal, acne-prone skin to try PCA Skin Clearskin 48.2g for a week and give me her feedback.

Needless to say, you’re reading this now so we must’ve had some success.

Tell Me More:

PCA Skin Clearskin 48.2g moisturiser has a non-greasy, lightweight texture specifically designed to treat, hydrate and heal normal, combination and oily skin types prone to breakouts.

• It has a concentrated formula packed with potent active ingredients

• Suitable for even sensitive skin, this moisturiser hydrates, calms & soothes

• The formula balances moisture levels & reduces redness associated with acne

• Works to reinforce the skin’s barrier & speed up the healing process

• Prevents future breakouts while still nourishing the skin

What’s In It?

Niacinamide: a calming antioxidant that helps to balance oil production, reduce water loss, improve uneven skin tone & protect the skin from environmental damage.

Vitamin A: promotes clearer skin by speeding up cell turnover, improving texture and tone at the same time.

Bisabolol: derived from chamomile, this anit-inflammatory ingredient calms the skin while attracting and retaining moisture, helping to speed up skin repair.

Lemongrass, Cucumber & Marigold Flower Oil: these plant-derived extracts help to purify the skin and prevent breakouts from occurring, while having a calming effect on aggravated skin.

The Verdict:

This friend of mine had been struggling with hormonal acne for a couple of months after a contraceptive change sent her skin into overdrive.

She told me she’d been trying to combat the constant breakouts around her chin and jawline with a drying lotion nearly every day.

So, fearing that she was making the situation worse, I told her to drop everything else and try this moisturiser instead.

When I touched base with her a week later, this was her review and results:

“I was sceptical that a moisturiser would clear up my stubborn hormonal acne, but within one application I noticed a difference. Usually, I would wake up with a new angry pimple every morning, but not the morning after using this.

Within 3 days, all the acne had calmed down and was no longer raised and red raw – and all I had left at the end of the week was scarring, not a single active pimple. I even recommended it to another friend who has the same skin concerns and she bought it right away.”
