This is a step-by-step acne & blemish regimen using BIOCULE cleansers, toners and serums to reduce pimples, clear blemishes, fade dark spots and achieve smooth, glowing skin.
Step-by-Step Acne & Blemish Skin Care Routine
Step 1: Deep Cleanse with Salicylic Face Wash
This is the first and most important step for acne-prone skin. If you do this wrong, then there’s no going back. Since your skin produces more oil than other skin types so you must double-cleanse (at least before sleeping). You must remove all dirt, sweat, and bacteria build-up, and excess oils from your skin. The best face wash for acne-prone skin is one with salicylic acid, just ensure it's from natural sources so it doesn't overly dry your skin.
