Understanding Acne

Acne is a multifactorial condition, often triggered by hormonal imbalances, clogged pores, bacteria, and excess oil production. Hot and humid climates can worsen acne by encouraging sweat, oil, and dirt to accumulate on the skin, leading to clogged pores and breakouts.

There are various types of acne, including blackheads, whiteheads, papules, pustules, nodules, and cysts. Each requires a different approach to treatment, but all forms of acne benefit from a consistent skincare routine that controls excess oil and maintains the skin's microbiome balance.

At B&B Labs, our approach to acne treatment includes products that not only target the symptoms of acne but also address its root causes. Our formulations use natural ingredients and cutting-edge microbiome science to help regulate the skin’s bacterial ecosystem, reducing the risk of future breakouts and promoting long-term skin health.

 

Effective Acne Treatment Options

When it comes to treating acne, over-the-counter products, prescription medications, and holistic skincare routines are commonly recommended. However, the effectiveness of these treatments varies depending on individual skin types and environmental factors like humidity.

Our Purifying Complete Care routine is specifically formulated for oily and combination skin. This four-step system provides comprehensive care to cleanse, treat, hydrate, and protect acne-prone skin, all while controlling oil and refining pores. Here's how it works: 

     Mineral Clarifying Cleanser: Deep-cleanses and purifies skin without disrupting the microbiome. 

     Super-Clear Treatment Essence: Utilises prebiotics, probiotics, and postbiotics to reduce acne inflammation. 

     Burdock Oil Control Gel: Controls oil production while maintaining skin hydration. 

     REDUCE Purifying Bamboo Mask: Detoxifies and refines pores using bamboo charcoal. 


Incorporating these products into your skincare routine can significantly improve acne symptoms while balancing the skin’s microbiome. For those with severe acne, prescription medications like topical retinoids or antibiotics may be recommended by dermatologists. However, these treatments are heavily medicated. An effective alternative is to treat with acne care that rebalances the skin microbiome and rebuild the skin barrier.

 

The Free Acne Treatment Checklist

Maintaining a consistent and thorough skincare routine is key to managing acne. Below is a free checklist you can follow for clearer skin: 

     Cleanse: Use a microbiome-safe cleanser twice a day. Our Mineral Clarifying Cleanser removes excess oil and dirt without disrupting the skin's natural barrier. 

     Treat: Apply a targeted treatment essence with acne-fighting ingredients. The Super-Clear Treatment Essence contains prebiotics, probiotics, and postbiotics which help reduce inflammation and clear breakouts. 

     Moisturise: Even oily skin needs hydration. Opt for a lightweight, non-comedogenic moisturiser like our Burdock Oil Control Gel, which hydrates without clogging pores or increasing oiliness. 

     Protect: Always use sunscreen to protect your skin from UV damage, which can worsen acne scars. We recommend our Tribiotics Suncare for broad-spectrum protection that also maintains microbiome balance. 

     Mask: Use an acne-fighting mask once or twice a week. Our REDUCE Purifying Bamboo Mask detoxifies and unclogs pores, offering intensive care for acne-prone skin. 

Lifestyle Tips: In addition to a proper skincare routine, adopting healthy habits can help manage acne. Ensure you drink plenty of water, maintain a balanced diet rich in fruits and vegetables, and manage stress, all of which can influence skin health. Getting sufficient sleep can also do wonders for your skin.
