Description

La Roche-Posay Effaclar Duo+M is anti-blemish cream specifically formulated to target marks left by congested, blemish-prone skin in acne sufferers. It has been clinically proven to reduce the appearance of blemishes, unclog pores and refine skin texture. Suitable for acne-prone skin types with sensitivity.

Key Ingredients include Phylobioma Active restores regular sebum production, and helps balance the microbiome thereby reducing the growth of C. acnes while regulating inflammatory response. Procerad™ a patented ceramide helps to suppress dark spots due to the excessive production of melanin. Niacinamide & Piroctone Olamine are anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial. Keratolytic agents Salicylic Acid & LHA help to exfoliate the skin. Zinc PCA regulates bacteria and sebum production. Non-comedogenic. Contains a fragrance.

Dr Webster’s Recommendation: La Roche-Posay Effaclar Duo+M is a dual corrective treatment that helps with oily, acne-prone skin and in those at risk of pigmentation caused by acne, it has an anti-inflammatory and anti-pigmentary action that helps to prevent dark marks. It absorbs quickly for a non-sticky, non-oily finish while providing 24hr hydration. Please note you need to apply a sunscreen over this product every morning and if you are outdoors for prolonged periods, apply a sunscreen every two hours or after swimming or heavy sweating.

*Reformulated, powered by microbiome science.
