Summer heat, humidity and excess oil can trigger seasonal breakouts. PanOxyl Acne Gel Wash helps clear pores, control shine and keep skin balanced all season long.
June may mark the official start of summer, but for skin, it can also signal the beginning of breakout season. Sigh. That’s because as the temperatures rise and humidity levels climb, we naturally spend more time outdoors, hiking at the cottage, playing softball and grabbing a brewsky or two on a patio with friends. Which means your face is probably producing an increased amount of sebum—you know, the oily substance skin creates to protect itself from more time spent outdoors, hiking at the cottage, playing softball, grabbing a brewsky or two on a patio with friends….
Combine all of the above and then some with the excess oil and a healthy side-helping of moisturizer, sunscreen, dirt and dead skin cells and you’re primed for a breakout. Which is why we recommend you use PanOxyl Acne Gel Wash.
Renowned for its dermatologist-recommended formula, specifically targeting breakouts, this skincare cleanser is a must for clear, balanced skin. Designed to help heal existing acne while helping prevent newly clogged pores from forming blackheads, whiteheads and acne flare-ups, the lightweight gel-to-foam cleanser is your ideal defence. The formula contains two per cent salicylic acid, a trusted acne-fighting ingredient exfoliates inside the pores, helping dissolve oil buildup, dirt and debris before congestion can turn into breakouts. The inclusion of blue algae and aloe vera help soothe and moisturize your skin, while allantoin reduces the appearance of redness caused by dryness. Zinc PCA works to control excess oil and mattify shine, betaine supports the skin’s moisture barrier and green tea extract helps refresh and rejuvenate your complexion.
All you have to do is massage a small amount onto damp skin in the evening, focusing on acne-prone areas like the forehead, nose and jawline before rinsing thoroughly. Follow with a lightweight moisturizer before you hit the sheets. In the morning, apply an SPF 30 to help keep your skin balanced and protected. You can thank us later.
