Acne leaves its marks, physically and emotionally. It affects up to 95% of adolescents and 40% of adults*. Many people experience post-acne marks (post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation or PIH for short) long after the acute acne has vanished. After tackling blemishes, they are still stuck fighting their post-acne marks, which can persist for several years or even a decade** with the sun aggravating the symptoms.

Salicylic acid, a beta hydroxy acid, is an effective ingredient for treatment of acne-prone skin. It is a particularly effective ingredient that fights the causes of blemish-prone skin: blocked pores and bacterial growth. It is an antibacterial ingredient with an exfoliating and comedolytic effect: it counteracts Cutibacterium acnes, a bacteria that can trigger acne outbreaks, it dissolves & removes dead skin and opens up clogged pores and softens the skin to even prevent blocked pores. This small lipophilic acid penetrates into pores for deep pore cleansing. Overall, it improves the appearance of the skin: it reduces blemishes and prevents them from re-appearing.
BHA stands for Beta hydroxy acid. At Eucerin, we use the BHA Salicylic acid. This small lipophilic acid penetrates into pores for deep pore cleansing, dissolves dead skin cells and controls sebum production.
PHA stands for Poly hydroxy acid. At Eucerin, we use the PHA Gluconolactone. With its hydroxy groups and larger molecular size, this exfoliating acid penetrates more slowly to the skin. Therefore, it is especially suitable for sensitive skin. It moisturises and makes skin more even and smoother.
