THE FACE SHOP DR.BELMEUR AMINO CLEAR BUBBLE FOAMING CLEANSER FOR ACNE-PRONE SKIN 150ML

Dealing with breakouts can be frustrating, but your cleanser shouldn't add to the irritation. This gentle bubble foam cleanser is specifically designed for acne-prone skin, using a low-irritant formula to effectively remove impurities and excess oil without stripping your skin's essential moisture. It's a smart, derma-cosmetic approach to achieving a clearer, more comfortable complexion.

Struggling with persistent breakouts and oiliness but find most acne cleansers too harsh? This is your gentle solution.

• Who it's for: Oily, combination, and acne-prone skin types, including those with sensitivity.
• What it does: Deeply cleanses pores, removes excess sebum, and helps calm breakouts with its functional formula for alleviating acne-prone skin.
• Texture: A soft, rich bubble foam that rinses clean without leaving skin feeling tight or dry.
• Key Ingredients: Salicylic Acid (0.5%), Serine (Amino Acid), Panthenol.

1. Cleanse: Use Dr.Belmeur Amino Clear Bubble Foaming Cleanser to wash your face. This creates a clean base.
2. Treat & Hydrate: Apply your chosen serum or moisturiser.
3. Protect (AM): Finish with a broad-spectrum sunscreen to protect your skin and prevent acne marks from darkening.

Note: If you already have a cleanser you're using, finish it first to avoid waste. You can substitute this one into your routine when you're ready.

In the morning, the goal is to gently cleanse away sweat and oil from the night and prep for protection.

• Step 1: Cleanse
  Wash with the Dr.Belmeur Amino Clear Bubble Foaming Cleanser.
• Step 2: Hydrate (Optional)
  Apply a lightweight, hydrating toner or essence to balance the skin.
• Step 3: Moisturise
  Use a non-comedogenic, lightweight moisturiser suitable for your skin type.
• Step 4: Protect
  Finish with a broad-spectrum sunscreen (SPF 30 or higher). This is the most crucial step for acne-prone skin to prevent post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH).

The evening routine focuses on thorough cleansing and repair.

• Step 1: Double Cleanse
  Start with an oil-based cleanser to melt away sunscreen and makeup. Follow with the Dr.Belmeur Amino Clear Bubble Foaming Cleanser as your second step to deep clean the pores.
• Step 2: Treat (Optional)
  Apply any targeted treatments, such as an exfoliating toner (on alternate nights) or a hydrating/calming serum.
• Step 3: Moisturise
  Apply a moisturiser to support your skin barrier and lock in hydration overnight.

• Amount: Dispense 1-2 pumps into wet hands.
• Method: Lather the product into a rich foam. Gently massage it over your damp face in circular motions, avoiding the immediate eye area. Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water.
• Frequency: Use twice daily, in the morning (AM) and evening (PM), for best results.

Pro-Tip for Double Cleansing: In your PM routine, use this foaming cleanser as your second step after an oil cleanser to ensure all traces of sunscreen, makeup, and daily grime are completely removed.

• Why use this, not a harsh physical scrub? Many believe scrubbing aggressively will "unclog" acne, but harsh scrubs can create micro-tears in the skin, spread bacteria, and trigger inflammation, leading to more breakouts and dark marks (PIH). This cleanser uses Salicylic Acid to chemically exfoliate *inside* the pore, which is more effective and far gentler.
• Why use this, not a high-pH bar soap? That "squeaky clean" feeling from bar soap often means your skin's protective acid mantle has been stripped. A compromised skin barrier can lead to dehydration and cause your skin to produce even more oil to compensate, worsening the acne cycle. This low-pH formula cleans effectively while respecting your skin's natural barrier.

As a rinse-off cleanser, this product is highly compatible with almost any leave-on skincare routine. It effectively prepares your skin for the next steps.

• ✅ Works Well With: Hydrating toners, calming serums (like Centella or Heartleaf), Niacinamide, Hyaluronic Acid, moisturisers, and daily sunscreen. It creates a clean canvas for these products to work effectively.
• ✅ Use With Actives: It's an excellent first step before applying other acne treatments like BHA/AHA toners, retinoids (on alternate nights), or spot treatments. It cleans the pores, allowing targeted treatments to penetrate better.

• 🟢 Ideal For: Acne-Prone, Oily, and Combination Skin. It's specifically formulated to address the needs of skin that experiences frequent breakouts and excess sebum.
• 🟡 Suitable For: Sensitive Skin. The Dr.Belmeur line is known for its gentle, derma-cosmetic approach. The use of amino acids and a low-irritant formula makes it a safer choice for sensitive skin dealing with acne compared to harsher alternatives.
• 🔴 Use with Caution: Very Dry Skin. While gentle, the inclusion of Salicylic Acid may be too drying for those with very dry skin types who are not experiencing acne. If used, it should be followed by a rich, hydrating routine.

This cleanser is formulated to address the root causes and symptoms of acne-prone skin:

• Active Acne & Breakouts: Helps to reduce existing pimples and prevent new ones from forming.
• Clogged Pores & Blackheads: Salicylic Acid works within the pores to dissolve the mixture of sebum and dead skin cells that leads to congestion.
• Excess Sebum/Oiliness: Thoroughly cleanses away surface oil for a fresher, more balanced complexion without over-drying.
• Skin Texture: By keeping pores clear, it contributes to a smoother overall skin texture.

Key Ingredients Explained:

• Salicylic Acid (0.5%): A Beta-Hydroxy Acid (BHA) that is oil-soluble, allowing it to penetrate deep into pores to exfoliate dead skin cells and dissolve excess sebum. It's a gold-standard ingredient for treating and preventing clogged pores and acne.
• Serine: An amino acid that acts as a gentle cleansing agent while also providing moisturising and skin-conditioning benefits. It helps ensure the cleansing process is effective but not harsh.
• Panthenol (Pro-vitamin B5): A soothing and hydrating ingredient that helps calm inflammation and supports the skin barrier, reducing the risk of irritation often associated with acne treatments.
• Glycerin: A fundamental humectant that draws moisture into the skin, helping to keep it hydrated and preventing the tight, stripped feeling after washing.

Who should use it?

This cleanser is designed for individuals with oily, combination, and acne-prone skin. It is not intended for children.

Patch Test Protocol:

1. Apply a small, pea-sized amount of the cleanser to a discreet area of skin, such as behind your ear or on your inner jawline.
2. Lather, rinse, and pat dry as you would on your face.
3. Wait for 24-48 hours to observe for any signs of irritation, such as redness, itching, or burning.
4. If no reaction occurs, the product is likely safe for you to use on your face. If irritation develops, discontinue use.

General Precautions: For external use only. Avoid direct contact with eyes. Discontinue use if a rash or irritation occurs and persists. Keep out of reach of children.

• Texture: Comes out as a liquid from the pump and quickly lathers into a soft, dense bubble foam.
• Feel on Skin: Feels rich and cushioning during the massage, providing a gentle cleanse.
• After-Rinse Finish: Rinses away cleanly, leaving the skin feeling fresh, soft, and balanced—not "squeaky clean" or tight.
• Scent: A subtle and refreshing citrus-herbal fragrance.
• pH: Formulated as a low-pH cleanser to be close to the skin's natural acidic state (typically pH 5.5-6.5), which helps protect the skin's moisture barrier.

• "My skin feels a little dry after using it."
  While gentle, Salicylic Acid can be drying for some. Ensure you're following up immediately with a hydrating toner and moisturiser. If dryness persists, you could reduce use to once a day (PM only) and use a simple hydrating cleanser in the AM.
• "I'm still getting breakouts."
  A cleanser is the first and most important step, but it can't do it all alone. For persistent acne, a cleanser's job is to prepare the skin for leave-on treatments. Consider adding a targeted BHA toner or a spot treatment to your routine after cleansing. Consistency is also key.
• "The foam isn't as rich as I expected."
  Make sure you're lathering it with a small amount of water in your palms before applying it to your face. The "bubble foam" effect comes from this lathering step.

This cleanser is exceptionally well-suited for the hot and humid climate of Mauritius.

• Humidity & Oil Control: During humid summer months, sweat and sebum production increase, creating an ideal environment for breakouts. This cleanser effectively removes this buildup, keeping pores clear and skin feeling fresh without the need for harsh, stripping ingredients.
• Sunscreen Removal: As daily sunscreen is essential in Mauritius, a thorough cleanse is needed at night. This foaming cleanser works perfectly as the second step in a double-cleanse routine to ensure every trace of water-resistant sunscreen is removed.
• AC Exposure: If you spend time in air-conditioned environments, your skin can become dehydrated. Unlike stronger acne washes, this gentle formula won't exacerbate that dryness, helping you maintain a healthy skin balance.

Is this cleanser good for hormonal acne?
Yes, it's a great choice. While hormonal acne is driven by internal factors, this cleanser helps manage the surface symptoms by keeping pores clear of excess oil and bacteria, reducing the chance of inflammatory breakouts around your chin and jawline.

Will it dry out my skin?
It is formulated to be gentle and non-stripping, using amino acids and a low-pH base. However, as it contains Salicylic Acid, individuals with very dry or compromised skin should be sure to follow up with hydrating products. For most oily and combination types, it will not feel drying.

Can I use this cleanser if I also use a retinol product?
Absolutely. As a rinse-off product, it is perfectly safe to use in the same routine as a retinoid. Cleanse your face thoroughly with this foam in the evening, pat dry, and then proceed with your retinol and moisturiser steps as usual. It helps create a clean slate for your active ingredients to work effectively.
