Perricone MD Acne Relief Maximum Strength Clearing Treatment is an acne treatment for grownups
About Adult Acne
Thought acne would go away in your thirties? Think again.
Who expected to have both acne AND fine lines? The trusty benzoyl peroxide-based acne treatments of our youths are harsh on mature adult skin and aren’t even effective on stubborn cystic acne.
Here is what to know about Perricone MD Acne Relief Maximum Strength Clearing Treatment.
WHAT IS Perricone MD ACNE RELIEF MAXIMUM STRENGTH CLEARING TREATMENT
Perricone MD ACNE RELIEF MAXIMUM STRENGTH CLEARING TREATMENT combines salicylic acid with a potent cocktail of ingredients that simultaneously treat acne, reduce skin sensitivity and nourish skin over 30.
WHY IS Perricone MD ACNE RELIEF MAXIMUM STRENGTH CLEARING TREATMENT SPECIAL
Teen acne is more straightforward than adult acne. But I find adult skin often does not have enough overall hydration to handle the excessively drying ingredients I used in my teens. Those ingredients irritate my sensitive skin and make any fine lines look worse.
Ingredients
Cica is an extract from this lovely round leaf. It soothes irritation while improving skin elasticity. Cica boosts antioxidant activity, and blood circulation and strengthens the skin.
Lactobacillus ferment is a probiotic to maintain a healthy skin barrier and reduce acne-causing bacteria.
Salicylic Acid is a bHA (beta hydroxy acid) well suited to treat adult acne. Salicylic acid purges clogged pores without excess drying.
Biomimetic oat protein fights free radicals and soothes redness and skin sensitivity.
Morinda Citrifolia Extract is better known as noni fruit. Noni is an antioxidant, anti-microbial, anti-inflammatory, and rich in Vitamin C.
Our Perricone MD ACNE RELIEF MAXIMUM STRENGTH CLEARING TREATMENT Experience
It is a fragrance-free treatment that doesn’t leave my skin flaky and red.
Unlike most acne spot treatments, it fully absorbs and dries down smoothly enough to apply makeup atop the blemishes.
It reduces the size, inflammation, and redness of my existing blemishes, even annoying hormonal acne. This is an important feature in an adult acne treatment as adult hormonal cystic acne is particularly difficult to treat.
I find the faster the pimple shrinks and is less “angry”, the less likely it is to leave a brown mark on the skin. Salicylic acid is a common ingredient in many adult acne formulations, but the other treatment actives and soothing ingredients in the formula make a big difference in how the pimple resolves. We find this formula is a good combination to treat and soothe the skin, so that surrounding skin does not have to recover from the acne treatment.
