TRIO Blemish BHA Face Wash 150ML
Helps control sebum & unclogs pores. For the improvement in appearance of acne, red marks and brown marks (3 blemishes).

- Salicylic acid

People of skin of colour with oily skin are more likely to get all 3 blemishes: Acne, Post Inflammatory Erythema (red marks) and Post Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation (brown marks).
We need to tackle all 3 processes simultaneously. TrioBlitz TM is a trademarked complex in our TRIO Blemish line to help achieve this.
Irritation can be more problematic for darker skin tones, and therefore it should be avoided where possible.

For people with oily, acne prone skin & 12 years and over.
Not for persons with a history of reactions to skincare products or overly sensitive or damaged skin.

No, nothing else required, it's all in the range.
You can try other products with the range, however only you know your skin and what it can tolerate, so some trial & error may be needed.
7. How long does it take to see results?
You may start to notice beneficial effects in as little as 2-4 weeks, however we advise 8+ weeks to see the full potential, as per the consumer trial results.
