Usage: Daily | Morning and/or Nighttime
Directions: Cleanse skin thoroughly before applying this product. Cover the entire affected area with a thin layer one to three times daily. Because excessive drying may occur, start with one application daily, then gradually increase to two or three times daily if needed or as directed by a doctor. If bothersome dryness or peeling occurs, reduce application to once a day or every other day.
FAQ:
How do I incorporate this into my routines?
Salicylic acid is a BHA (beta hydroxy acid) and it functions as an exfoliant (like the AHAs that we use in the AHA Exfoliating Peel). AHAs are water soluble and are a wonderful option for dry, sun-damaged skin. BHA's are oil soluble, allowing them to penetrate deeper to unclog pores and reduce breakouts. If you want to use both AHAs as well as BHAs in your skincare routine, we recommend alternating them nightly. You can use the Blemish Cream (with 2% BHA) nightly or alternate it with another exfoliant if desired.
Can I use this on my entire face?
Our new Blemish Cream is a spot treatment and is not intended to be applied to the entire face. We recommend using on areas where breakouts or clogged pores are a problem.
Is this appropriate for all skin types?
The Blemish Cream is appropriate for all skin types, but tends to work best for oily and/or acne-prone skin
Is this appropriate for teen skin?
Yes! The Blemish Cream is wonderful for teen skin.
Is it suitable for daytime wear?
While it can be used during the day, we encourage the Blemish Cream as part of a nighttime routine because it is an exfoliant, and like all exfoliants, you should take extra care in the sun after applying since you are revealing fresh new skin cells that need more protection from the sun.
Can this be used in a routine with the Vitamin C Serum?
We would recommend using the Vitamin C Serum in the morning and the Blemish Cream at night for best results.
