Acne is not caused by a single event (like binging on chocolate) but rather is the result of multiple steps going “wrong” in the skin. It is a disorder of keratinization, or dysfunctional formation of the cells lining the gland beneath the skin’s surface.

Regular, daily cleansing and removal of make-up, dirt and debris is the first step toward interrupting the chain of events that cause acne in order to clear the skin and prevent recurrences. Try using a cleanser specifically formulated for oily skin and acne prevention like DERMAdoctor Ain’t Misbehavin’ aha/bha acne cleanser, which has a soap-free, pH balanced, creamy base to dissolve and exfoliate pore-plugging debris, curb bacteria growth and control oil production. It contains the highest level of salicylic acid (BHA), an approved treatment to unplug pores and treat acne, as well as Witch Hazel, a time-honored astringent thought to target bacteria, and Allantoin, a botanical extract thought to have healing and anti-irritant properties.

Use it morning and night to keep your skin as clean as possible. You can even use Ain’t Misbehavin' cleanser in the shower as a body cleanser. Just remember that products containing Salicylic Acid should be avoided during pregnancy or while nursing.

Ain't Misbehavin' cleanser is formulated to work synergistically with your daily acne control regimen. Try following cleansing with DERMAdoctor Ain’t Misbehavin’ acne control serum, which directly targets all five points of blemish development, disrupting acne formation.

Take control of misbehavin’ skin before it takes control of you and live a blemish-free life!
