Skin care products for acne that promote the skin’s natural exfoliation are essential for any anti-acne treatment. Regular exfoliation with ingredients such as salicylic acid can help the build-up of dead cells that can cause the pores to become clogged. The exfoliation provided by acids and 
retinol can also help improve the appearance of 
skin discolouration caused by past acne, enhance skin smoothness, and promote more even, radiant skin tone.
SkinCeuticals acne skin care products include 
LHA Acne Cleanser, 
LHA Acne Toner, 
and 
Blemish + Age Defense Acne Serum. 
This range provides acid-based exfoliation to help clear away dead cells and help to prevent clogged pores, refine surface texture, and provide brightening benefits for the skin. 
Retinol 0.3 
in the evening (as tolerated) complements the results achieved with the LHA and Blemish + Age acne products by further enhancing cell turnover to maintain clear pores, while improving the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and discolouration caused by sun damage and past acne marks.

Oily and acne-prone skin types require extra hydration as well. A non-comedogenic, oil-free moisturiser 
with hyaluronic acid, such as 
Phyto Corrective Gel serum for acne, is ideal for hydrating the skin without clogging the pores.
Sunscreen 
is another essential daily skincare product for acne-prone skin. First, it’s a myth that sun exposure helps clear up acne. Although a suntan may improve the appearance of acne at first, the damage and dryness caused by exposure to UV rays can cause an increased production of sebum, increasing the likelihood of an acne breakout. A properly formulated non-comedogenic sunscreen can help to protect oily and acne-prone skin from UV rays without clogging pores.
