For acne-prone skin on a budget, yes - dermatologist-formulated actives at accessible pricing, made and shipped locally.

• SKIN functional is formulated in SA with input from pharmacology, dermatology and aesthetic medicine experts.
• The 2% Acnoclear Complex™ is specifically built for breakout management and calming inflammation.
• No fragrance, no parabens, no animal testing - important if your skin reacts easily.
• Pricing is a fraction of a lot of imported acne ranges.
• First impressions are promising - I'll keep this updated as I use it.

Cleanse, treat, moisturise, SPF - and be careful layering strong exfoliants with benzoyl peroxide-based treatments, as it's easy to over-exfoliate acne-prone skin.

• Cleanse first, then apply targeted treatments like my Acnoclear Complex to clean, dry skin.
• Benzoyl peroxide and AHAs are both exfoliating in different ways - be cautious layering them together.
• Niacinamide is one of the few actives that plays well with almost everything, including acne treatments.
• Moisturiser still matters for acne-prone skin - don't skip it, even if your skin feels oily.
• SPF every morning - especially if you're using any actives that increase sun sensitivity.
