Can I use the Acne Wash and Acne Gel every day?
Yes, both products are formulated for daily use. However, if your skin is new to active acne treatments, it's important to start slowly—every other day, or even a few times a week—to build tolerance and minimize potential irritation.
If you begin to experience signs of dryness or discomfort, reduce usage immediately. Focus on rebalancing your skin barrier with hydrating serums and a nourishing moisturizer until your skin feels calm and supported again. Once the barrier is restored, you can gradually resume use, closely monitoring how your skin responds. Always listen to your skin—it will guide you.
Will the Perfect Acne Duo dry out my skin?
Benzoyl Peroxide, the active ingredient in the Acne Gel, can be drying for some users. That’s why we recommend following up with a hydrating and antioxidant-rich moisturizer. If your skin feels tight or irritated, reduce frequency of use or reach out to us for guidance.

Can I use other active ingredients like retinol or AHAs while using the Perfect Acne Duo?
You can, but it’s important to introduce actives slowly and monitor your skin’s response. Over-exfoliation can compromise the skin barrier. If in doubt, alternate usage or consult a professional.
Is the Acne Gel safe to use on inflamed or cystic acne?
Yes, the Acne Gel was formulated to calm inflammation and is effective on deeper, inflamed blemishes. Apply it only to affected areas, not the entire face.
Can I use the Perfect Acne Duo with your other acne products?
Absolutely. This duo forms the core of your acne treatment regimen. It works beautifully with supporting products like the Daily Moisturizer, Glycolic Lactic Toner, Zinc Mask, or Herbal Hydrating Gel Mask to optimize your results.
Is the Perfect Acne Duo safe for teenagers?
These products are not recommended for anyone under 13 years old. For teens, we advise patch-testing first and using it under adult supervision.
Can I use the Perfect Acne Duo if I have sensitive skin?
If you have very sensitive or reactive skin, consider starting with our Sensitive Skin Acne Starter Kit, which uses a gentler cleanser and toner to buffer the effects of Benzoyl Peroxide.
How long will each product last me?
