Helps unclog pores, reduce breakouts, and control excess oil for clearer-looking skin.

Best for oily, combination, and acne-prone skin, but can be used by most skin types with care.

Use once or twice daily – morning and/or evening – after cleansing and before moisturizing. Always follow with sunscreen during the day.

Start 2–3 times a week and increase as your skin builds tolerance.

Avoid using it at the same time as strong exfoliants or retinol to prevent irritation.

It may cause slight dryness, so follow with a moisturiser to keep skin balanced.

Skin may appear clearer within a few days, with continued improvement over time with regular use.
