HOW IT WORKS

Pimples have many different forms, but the ways of their formation are always the same. Dead skin cells together with sebum clog skin pores. This creates an environment suitable for the activity of acne-causing bacteria (P. acnes), which are a breeding ground for inflammation and redness of the skin. Blemish SOS targets all of these inflammatory agents and thus promotes a flawless skin appearance. The targeted gel uses the power of salicylic acid to clear clogged pores and help unclog them. Dioic acid, in turn, is suitable for reducing the amount of sebum produced. And the less sebum, the less clogged pores. Azelaic acid inhibits the activity of P. acnes bacteria responsible for acne, while niacinamide calms inflammation and relieves skin redness.

MAIN INGREDIENTS

Salicylic acid - It is one of the most well-known substances used to reduce acne. This acid dampens the secretion activity of the sebaceous glands, thereby drying the oily surface of the skin. Cleans clogged pores.

Azelaic acid - It has a strong anti-inflammatory effect, and at the same time acts as a strong prevention against the formation of comedones (phase I of acne manifestations - pimples). Reduces skin redness.

Dioic acid - Reduces sebum production, destroys acne-causing bacteria, has anti-inflammatory effects

Niacinamide (vitamin B3) - Has an anti-inflammatory effect, reduces redness and skin irritation. It slows down the rate of sebum formation and helps to change the skin. It prevents the blockage of pores that can cause pimples.
