Your ultimate defence against breakouts

We live in a world where social media has created false beauty standards, and whether we want to admit it or not, blemishes can really knock our confidence. Blemishes can happen to anyone from teenagers to adult but thankfully with good skincare we can help drastically reduce their appearance and in some cases, completely prevent them. We are pleased to introduce our new REFORM Skincare Anti-Blemish kit.

REFORM Skincare ANTI-BLEMISH KIT was specifically formulated for oily, blemish prone skin and contains products with scientifically proven active ingredients. This three-step regime helps reduce breakouts and promote a clear radiant complexion.

What causes blemishes and breakouts?

Genetics: Skin type and genetic inheritance can dictate whether you will have acne, particularly if the condition runs in your family. 
Stress: From teenagers to adults, we’re all prone to stress. Stress can trigger sebum secretion which, in turn, causes acne and blemishes.
Hormones: We experience hormonal fluctuations at many stages in life. These fluctuations cause the oil secreting glands to produce more sebum. This results in the clogging of the pores.
Diet: Your diet may have an impact on the production of blemishes. Diets high in sugar or simple carbohydrates may cause blemishes.  Food allergies and contact dermatitis may also cause skin irritation and bumps.
Environment: Climatic changes may result in the triggering of an excess release of sebum, triggering the formation of acne. Dust and other pollutants in the air may also result in blemishes.

How can the REFORM Skincare Anti-Blemish Kit help?

We pride ourselves in producing skincare backed by science. Our Anti-Blemish Kit has been specially formulated to target and repair blemishes.  The Anti-Blemish Kit contains our Salicylic Acid Foaming Cleanser, Repair & Renew Gel and Anti-Blemish Crème. These products contain the following active ingredients that are scientifically proven to reduce minimise breakouts.

Salicylic Acid
Salicylic acid (2%) is the main active ingredient in our Salicylic Acid Foaming cleanser. It is also an active ingredient in our REFORM Anti-Blemish Crème. It is soluble in oil, so it has a greater ability to penetrate oil glands and unclog pores than other acids, making it more effective at minimising breakouts. Research also suggests that salicylic acid has anti-inflammatory benefits, which means it could help quell skin redness and irritation, too. 

Niacinamide
Our Anti-Blemish Crème contains the active ingredient Niacinamide (10%). It is an anti-inflammatory that works to reduce the swelling and redness associated with acne. It also works to regulate the amount of acne-causing oil being produced by the glands in your skin.

Zinc
Zinc (1%) is also an active ingredient within the Anti-Blemish Crème. Zinc’s anti-inflammatory properties help to reduce swelling and redness. It also helps to promote wound healing, thereby working to reduce any residual acne scarring.

Glycolic Acid
The REFORM Repair & Renew gel contains the active ingredient Glycolic Acid (7%). Glycolic Acid breaks the bonds that hold the skin together. This increases the speed at which dead skin cells shed off. This exfoliation effect will improve the tone and texture of skin whilst preventing pores becoming clogged with oil and dead skin cells.

Mandelic Acid
Mandelic Acid (7%) is also an active ingredient within our Repair & Renew gel. Mandelic Acid works to calm inflammatory acne and some forms of hyperpigmentation. It also has antibacterial properties which can help to tackle acne causing bacteria.
