PurClear Anti-Acne Serum
Clears Breakouts · Calms Inflammation · Refines Pores
A unique hydrating acne treatment that soothes inflammation, clears clogged pores, and treats flare-ups, including hormonal acne, without causing irritation or dryness, even on sensitive and reactive skin.
Formulated with Advanced Salicylic Acid (BHA) enhanced with Time-Release Technology, it gently clears acne-causing impurities and unclogs pores without the typical sting or irritation. Enriched with Tea Tree Leaf Oil and Alpine Willowherb Extract, it combats C. acnes bacteria, soothes inflammation, regulates sebum production and minimises pores for a clearer, healthier complexion.
Unlike traditional drying anti-acne treatments, this advanced formula features an innovative Water Shuttle Technology, delivering up to 12 hours of continuous hydration while actively treating blemishes. Its dual-purpose formula can be used both as a spot treatment and for all-over application to help prevent breakouts and clear active blemishes.
Suitable for: All skin types, especially acne-prone and sensitive skin prone to breakouts.
Free from: Fragrance, parabens, phthalates, sulphates, mineral oil and alcohol.
Thoughtfully formulated: Vegan, cruelty-free and non-comedogenic. We recommend consulting your doctor if you are pregnant or nursing as a precautionary note as it contains Salicylic Acid.
Perfect to pair with LumiGlow SmartSkin Buddy SOOTHE mode for a relaxing facial spa anytime, anywhere.
