Nothing ruins a big night out with your bae more than an untimely and unwanted break out of spots and blemishes… especially during the month of love.

But one can take control of these skin disasters by adopting a simple, yet thorough skin care regimen which includes thorough daily cleansing, treatment and moisturising using products that have the right ingredients in the appropriate quantities – i.e. that are not too strong or harsh.

Products that are aimed at teenage and problem skins are often extremely harsh and strip the skin of vital moisture and one may be forgiven for thinking that this would be the right thing to do.  After all spot are often the BFF of oily skin.  The thing is, however, is that the more moisture you take out of the skin the more active the skin’s oil glands become and the more oil they produce – only making the situation worse.

An effective skin care range for problem skin needs to help restore the skin’s balance not throw it out more.

Ingredients such as Salicylic Acid, Niacinamide, Sarcosine and Tea Tree Oil help to GENTLY but effectively control oil production, exfoliate the skin and fight the germs responsible for spots and breakouts.

But for these ingredients to work effectively there are other factors that need to be taken into account including diet, general hygiene habits, hydration, sleep, stress levels etc.

All these factors can also influence and affect the health and condition of the skin.

Eating the right food and drinking lots of water cannot be underestimated and regular cleansing after sport, partying and exposure to sun will also contribute to keeping the skin balanced and healthy.

Celltone’s Spot Control Range uses a powerful – yet gentle – cocktail of ingredients to address the needs of teenage and problem skin.
