Acne is one of the most common skin concerns in the UK and across the world. Acne can come in different forms including harsh cystic spots, rashes, under the skin lumps and blackheads. Treating acne can result in using harsh chemicals and even ingesting chemicals in the form of medication.
Acne can also lead to depression and social anxiety as some people often feel uncomfortable in their own skin. Now acne can be hormonal or even environmental and it can sometimes be hard to tame those spots.
Give Me Cosmetics has pulled together their best products and ingredients to help fight your acne and we’re going to join you on your clear skin journey today!
The NEW Acne Fighter Bundles consists of 5 must-have products to treat and hydrate your skin. I know a lot of acne sufferers will see hydration as something to avoid and something that may make their acne or oily prone skin worse! But this is a myth, drying your skin out can cause more irritation to your open spots as well as result in scarring leaving you with a permanent reminder of your acne.

We have started the Acne Fighter Bundle with our Green Tea and Vitamin E Cleansing Balm as this is incredibly gentle on the skin and helps to clear out all the impurities. Using a gentle cleanser that does not strip your natural oils will help your spots heal with less scarring. Green Tea is an antioxidant ingredient to help reduce redness and irritation. Vitamin E is hydration and allows your skin barrier to lock in more moisture.Â

We have paired this with the super soft Eco Pad which can be reused up to 200 times. We recommend using this with warm water to wipe away your Cleansing Balm. This super soft pad is designed not to irritate the skin like a harsh towel or flannel might but just to glide over the skin and remove the excess product. Remember to wash this regularly to reduce the risk of bacteria forming!
We often go on about double cleansing and of course we have our Double Cleanse Bundle but there are many different ways to double cleanse including using our Cleansing Balm and then the Vitamin C Cleanser for an Acne Fighting double cleanse.Â
Double cleansing is important to make sure your skin is fully cleansed and clear of any makeup, impurities, dirt and pollution. The first cleanse removes the top layer of dirt and bacteria sitting on the skin and the second cleanse digs deeper into the skin and pores, double checking that all the grime is fully removed.
Using our Vitamin C Cleanser is going to introduce a key ingredient of Vitamin C into your skincare routine which is perfect for targeting and healing acne. Using this Vitamin C with added Hyaluronic Acid and Vitamin B5 is going to hydrate your skin whilst healing any acne spots and reduce the risk of scarring. This hydrating formula will keep your skin plump as well as not stripping the natural oils.

We have included our Exfoliating Facial pad to the Acne Fighting Bundle to work alongside the Vitamin C Cleanser as this is going to help work in the hydrating formula to ensure all pores are cleansed even in the hard to reach areas. This small silicone pad is designed with micro bristles that can penetrate deep into the pores for an even thorough cleanse whilst still being gentle on the irritated skin.
Lastly we have included the 10% Vitamin C Serum. This powerful Serum is formulated with 10% Vitamin C, a luxury ingredient at a high percentages as well as the acne fighting duo of Salicylic Acid and Niacinamide. This holy trinity is packed inside our Serum and this works alongside the Cleanser to ensure that these ingredients are able to absorb deep into the skin and target healing of your acne.

Looking deeper into Niacinamide and Salicylic Acid. These active ingredients are one to look for when struggling with breakouts, Niacinamide helps speed up healing, soothing and calming of the skin. Whilst Salicylic Acid is one of the most well known active ingredients for acne clearing and acne preventing in the future.
Top tip: whilst your skin is still damp after cleansing, apply your serum to the damp skin to trap in extra moisture for prolonged hydration!
Using these 5 products in unison is sure to help you on your acne fighting journey. We know acne can be a tough journey but we are here to help!
