Blemish-prone skin is identified by overactive sebaceous glands that may lead to the following concerns.

Oily Skin and Occasional Bumps
Whiteheads and Blackheads
Frequent Breakouts
To learn how to care for these different stages of acne, one needs to be well-versed in their differences.

1. Oily Skin and Occasional Bumps: Overactive sebaceous glands lead to pores spilling oil left, right, and centre. This can disrupt your skin’s microbiome, often causing small bumps to appear out of the blue.
Solution: To ensure a balanced microbiome and prevent the occasional bumps, all you need is an oil-soluble cleanser. Enter Foxtale’s Acne Control Face Wash with Salicylic Acid. This non-drying formula buffs away excess oil and debris from the pores. Moreover, it carries skincare workhorses, Niacinamide and Hyaluronic Acid that deeply hydrate your skin. Please note that hydration is crucial for oily skin as it helps regulate sebum production.

2. Whiteheads and Blackheads: Blackheads or open comedones generally appear on your nose. They turn black when the sebum and debris clogged in these bumps undergo a chemical reaction – leading to melanin oxidation. On the other hand, whiteheads are closed comedones that are clogged with sebum, dead cells, and keratin. Since they have smaller openings to the skin surface, air doesn’t reach these follicles.
Solution: If you wish to get rid of the whiteheads or blackheads on your face, try the AHA BHA Exfoliating Serum thrice a week. It contains exfoliators Salicylic and Glycolic Acids that slough off impurities and sebum from the pores to help administer an even texture.

3. Acne or Recurring Breakouts: The most common way for acne or breakouts to occur is when dust and sebum plug your pores. They may be further aggravated when bacteria get trapped in these pores, leading to redness and inflammation.
Solution: The best way to prevent frequent breakouts is by adhering to a cleanse-treat-seal ritual twice a day. Foxtale carries a range of anti-acne products that are gentle, hydrating and nourishing to the skin. Use our Acne Control Cleanser with Salicylic Acid to remove buildup on your skin while replenishing its moisture reservoir. Additionally, you may use AHA BHA Exfoliating Serum at night (thrice a day) to help cue healthy cellular turnover. In case of an acne SOS, dab the Acne Spot Corrector Gel on the active eruptions. Infused with Salicylic and Glycolic Acid, this spot treatment shrinks acne overnight.
