Acne Skin: The ultimate breakouts range and a scientific approach to clearer skin
Whether you’re dealing with constant breakouts or the odd flare-up, the ultimate breakouts range is here to help you take back control and feel good in your skin again.

Key products & hero ingredients:
1. 2% Succinic Acid Spot Treatment (FREE with any acne product purchase in June
This fast-working spot treatment contains powerful ingredients. First, Succinic Acid helps shrink blemishes and reduce oil. Then, Niacinamide smooths your skin and refines pores, while Salicylic Acid clears out clogged pores for a fresher, clearer look.
2. ULTIMATE Foam Cleanser
This gentle foaming cleanser is suitable for all skin types and is packed with ingredients your skin will love. To begin, Betaine locks in moisture. Next, Beta Glucan works to heal and calm the skin. Panthenol then adds soothing hydration, and to finish, Raspberry Ketone delivers antioxidant protection for a healthy glow.
3. ULTIMATE Breakouts Toner
This toner helps fade dark spots and even out your skin tone. It also works to support your skin’s natural barrier. As the second step in your acne routine, it plays a crucial role in maintaining clear, balanced, and healthy skin.
4. Ultimate Breakouts Moisturiser
First up, the one for dry and sensitive skin helps your skin heal, calms breakouts and irritation, fades marks, and leaves your skin feeling smooth.
Then, the version for oily and combination skin keeps oil in check, tones down redness, and provides your skin with the moisture it needs, morning and night.
A gentle, all-round approach to clearer skin
What makes this range stand out is its focus on treating acne from the root. Each product uses proven ingredients that calm inflammation, clear clogged pores, and strengthen the skin barrier for lasting results.
“Our goal is to empower people with effective, affordable skincare that’s backed by science,” says Kevin Khosa. “Acne Awareness Month is a meaningful reminder that breakouts are common—and treatable. With the right ingredients, consistent care, and a bit of support, clear skin is possible.”
