Acnecide Purifide Oil Control Acne Moisturiser - 50ml

You can maintain balanced hydration whilst managing oily, acne-prone skin with this specialised moisturiser. The formula is designed to provide essential moisture without adding excess oil to your complexion, helping you achieve a more balanced skin appearance.

This lightweight moisturiser absorbs quickly into your skin, leaving a non-greasy finish that works well under makeup or as part of your daily skincare routine. You'll find it suitable for daily use as part of a comprehensive acne moisturiser regimen alongside other skin care products.

How This Oil Control Formula Works

The moisturiser works by delivering hydration to your skin whilst helping to regulate excess oil production. This dual action helps prevent the over-drying that can occur with some acne treatments, which may actually trigger increased oil production as your skin tries to compensate.

You can use this moisturiser to support your skin's natural barrier function whilst maintaining a more balanced complexion. The formula is designed to complement acne treatment routines without interfering with active ingredients you may be using.

Who Should Use This Moisturiser

This moisturiser is suitable for you if you have oily or combination skin that is prone to breakouts. You may find it particularly helpful if you're using acne treatments that can cause dryness or irritation, as it helps maintain skin comfort whilst managing oil levels.

The product is appropriate for:

Adults and teenagers with oily, acne-prone skin
Those using acne treatments who need additional hydration
People seeking a non-comedogenic moisturiser option
Anyone wanting to balance skin hydration without adding excess oil

Why Choose a Specialised Acne Moisturiser

Regular moisturisers may contain ingredients that can clog pores or exacerbate acne-prone skin. This specialised formula is designed to provide the hydration your skin needs without contributing to breakouts or increasing oiliness.

You benefit from a moisturiser that understands the unique needs of acne-prone skin, helping you maintain proper hydration levels whilst supporting your overall skincare goals. This approach helps prevent the cycle of over-drying and subsequent increased oil production.

Clinical Suitability and Storage

You should store this moisturiser in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat sources. Keep the tube tightly closed when not in use to maintain product integrity and prevent contamination.

The 50ml size provides approximately 6-8 weeks of twice-daily use, depending on the amount applied. You can incorporate this moisturiser into both morning and evening skincare routines as needed.

This product is a medicine. Speak to your doctor or pharmacist before using if you have an underlying medical condition or are taking other medicines.

How to Apply Your Oil Control Moisturiser

You should cleanse your face thoroughly before applying the moisturiser. Pat your skin dry with a clean towel, leaving it slightly damp to help with product absorption. Apply a small amount of moisturiser to your fingertips and gently massage into your face and neck using upward circular motions.

Focus on areas that tend to be drier whilst being mindful not to over-apply to your T-zone if it's particularly oily. Allow the moisturiser to absorb fully before applying makeup or other skincare products.

When and How Often to Use

You can use this moisturiser twice daily, in the morning and evening, as part of your regular skincare routine. If you're new to using acne treatments, you may want to start with once-daily application to assess your skin's response before increasing frequency.

Apply the moisturiser after any treatment products but before sunscreen during your morning routine. In the evening, use it as the final step in your skincare regimen. You should use only the amount needed to cover your face and neck comfortably without leaving a heavy residue.

Possible Side Effects and Skin Reactions

Like all medicines, Acnecide Purifide Oil Control Moisturiser can have side effects, although not everyone will experience them. Some people may experience mild skin reactions when first introducing new skincare products, particularly if you have sensitive skin or are using other creams and ointments for acne treatment.

The most commonly reported side effects include mild skin irritation, temporary redness, or slight stinging upon initial application. These effects typically subside as your skin adjusts to the product.

You should be aware of these potential side effects:

Mild skin irritation or sensitivity
Temporary redness at application site
Slight stinging or tingling sensation
Dryness or tightness of skin
Peeling or flaking in some areas
Increased sensitivity to sunlight
Contact dermatitis in sensitive individuals
Temporary worsening of acne symptoms
Allergic reactions in rare cases
Burning sensation upon application

If you experience these or any other side effects, speak to your doctor or pharmacist right away. For more information about reporting side effects please see the MHRA Yellow Card Scheme.
