Acne-prone skin: cosmetics alongside treatment
Luxury skincare does not replace acne treatment
Acne may require specific clinical management, particularly when it is painful or leaves marks. An expensive cream does not guarantee resolution. Cosmetics instead contribute cleansing, comfort and sometimes makeup coverage, with textures that should fit the recommendations of the professional overseeing care rather than being chosen solely through prestige positioning or advertising.
Read product labels without expecting absolute guarantees
A non-comedogenic indication can help identify products, but it does not promise that every user will remain free of all breakouts. Dermatologists advise avoiding rubbing and constantly changing treatments. Compare references patiently and notice drying effects, especially when a medical treatment is also part of the routine and may influence what the skin tolerates.
