Blemishes, oily skin, imperfections? Not anymore. Beauties, if you’re someone who worries about acne then listen up because we’ve got spot treatments, creams and gels to make your troubles a thing of the past.

M.A.D Acne Salicylic Cleansing Gel
As the first step to controlling Acne, Salicylic Cleansing Gel is designed for maximum effectiveness in the fight against blemishes. It uses a potent blend of 2% Salicylic Acid combined with botanicals to fight oil and help balance oily prone skin.
“We know there are several things going on here,” says Dr. Costi, “but it’s also very closely related to stress.” A stress-related hormone called CRH (corticotrophin-releasing hormone) can bind to receptors in the skin’s sebaceous glands causing them to overwork.
Spots, blackheads, pimples… acne is a real headache. Suitable for sensitive and acne prone skin, SVR SEBIACLEAR CICAPEEL dries and helps eliminate pimples and blackheads in record time while preventing the formation of marks. Its invisible oil-free gel texture keeps working all day long.
“The skin’s sebaceous glands are immune organs, and they can create inflammation when overstimulated” Dr. Costi adds. So you end-up with inflammation, swelling or redness which then causes people to scratch or pick at their skin resulting in scarring.
It’s a vicious cycle! Add to stress the effects of a poor diet, pollution and smoking and you’re got a cocktail for disaster.
Sébium Night Peel offers the efficacy of a gentle peel at home for combination to oily skin with blemishes: – 15% Glycolic acid provides it with its peeling action.
So what can we do other than meditation and relaxation techniques to reduce stress? “The solution is to always be prepared with a good skin care routine, take care of your diet and never go to sleep without cleansing your face!” confirms Dr. Costi.
