Some ingredients target acne through different mechanisms: killing bacteria, unclogging pores, or reducing oil production. They can support clearer skin over time, but consistency and patience are key - especially since everyone's skin responds differently. For severe or persistent acne, combine with professional dermatological care.

Oily skin is largely determined by genetics, but factors like stress, hormones, and humidity can also play a role. Some ingredients are commonly used to help manage excess oil and keep shine in check, without stripping the skin.

Pores are tiny openings in the skin that release sweat and oil. Everyone has them, and it's completely normal for them to be visible. While factors like excess oil, acne, sun damage, and even genetics can make pores appear larger, these ingredients may help minimize their appearance. Just keep in mind: you can't erase pores entirely, and that's okay!

Some ingredients are commonly used to support the skin's natural healing process and improve the appearance of scars over time. While results can vary, they may help with texture, discoloration, and overall skin recovery.
