Roche-Posay Effaclar Micro-Peeling Purifying Gel (200ml) is a targeted, rinse-off face and body cleanser specially formulated for moderate to severe acne-prone skin, breakout marks, and persistent imperfections.
Key Active Formulation:
- 2% Salicylic Acid (BHA): Penetrates deep into the pores to break down sebum plugs and minimize stubborn blackheads.
- LHA (Lipo-Hydroxy Acid): Delivers micro-exfoliation to resurface rough skin texture and fade post-acne pigmentation marks without physical friction.
- Zinc Gluconate: Targets oil-producing glands to dramatically lower excess sebum and control shine.
Application Steps for Face and Body:
- Wet the Skin: Wet your face or target body areas (chest, back, shoulders) with lukewarm water. Avoid hot water, which strips natural oils.
- Lather the Gel: Pump a small, pea-sized amount onto clean, wet hands. Rub your hands together until it forms a soft foam.
- Massage Gently: Massage the foam onto the skin using circular motions. Focus heavily on breakout-prone areas like the T-zone or jawline. Avoid the delicate eye contour entirely.
- Rinse Thoroughly: Rinse away all traces of the gel completely with plenty of lukewarm water.
- Pat Dry: Pat the skin dry using a clean, soft towel. Do not rub or scrub.
