5 Common Skin Conditions

In this guide we explore five of the most common skin conditions — acne, comedones, contact dermatitis, eczema, and rosacea — and the simple steps that help manage each.

Acne and Chemical Exfoliators

Chemical exfoliants such as alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs) remove dead skin cells and help unclog pores. Glycolic acid and lactic acid are popular AHAs for smoother, clearer skin.

BHA Exfoliants

Salicylic acid (BHA) penetrates oil and is especially effective for blackheads and acne-prone skin. Always wear sunscreen when using chemical exfoliants.

Comedones

Comedones form when pores become clogged. Blackheads are open comedones; whiteheads are closed. Gentle, consistent exfoliation helps keep them under control.

Contact Dermatitis

This occurs when skin meets an irritant or allergen. A fragrance-free moisturiser and short-term topical steroids usually bring relief.

Eczema

Eczema causes dry, itchy, inflamed patches. Manage it with regular moisturisers, topical corticosteroids, and by avoiding known triggers — explore options in our eczema range.

Rosacea

Rosacea causes facial redness, bumps, and visible vessels. Gentle skincare for sensitive skin, topical medications, and laser therapy all help reduce flare-ups.
