Wash first. Then the pad. The two steps that keep oily, acne-prone skin looking clear in a GCC climate.
The AC Mousse Cleanser (150ml) is Step 1, morning and night. A sulfate-free foam with a built-in silicone brush, made for skin that is shiny by noon. Mild coconut-derived cleansers lift oil, sunscreen and grime, and 20% glycerin holds water in the skin while they work, so you rinse to clean and soft rather than squeaky and tight. Thirty seconds of small circles with the brush lifts the oil packed around the nose and chin, and pores look clearer once they are empty. 8-free: no SLS, SLES, alcohol, parabens, colorants, artificial fragrance, mineral oil or AHA.
The AC Pad BHA (40 pads) is Step 2, straight after. A pre-soaked, textured pad you swipe from the centre of the face outwards and do not rinse. It picks up the sunscreen along the hairline and the oil that crept back around the nose while you were rinsing, then stays on: a 16% humectant base pulls water into the skin and allantoin keeps it calm. Look at the pad afterwards. It will tell you what the wash missed. No alcohol, no added fragrance.
✓ Complete wash + swipe routine for oily, acne-prone skin in one set
✓ Removes excess oil, sunscreen and grime without stripping (sulfate-free foam)
✓ 20% glycerin in the cleanser, 16% humectants in the pad: no tightness at any step
✓ Keeps pores clear of the oil and buildup that lead to breakouts
✓ Minimizes the look of enlarged pores; skin looks fresh and matte
✓ Allantoin in the pad calms freshly washed skin
✓ Both dermatologically tested; pad classified non-irritating
✓ No alcohol, parabens, sulfates or artificial fragrance in either formula
The routine takes under two minutes. Cleanser every wash, pad straight after.
STEP 1: AC Mousse Cleanser (morning and night)
1. Wet your face with lukewarm water.
2. Pump once or twice straight onto the brush head. The foam arrives ready.
3. Massage in small circles for 30 to 60 seconds with a light hand. Extra time on the nose, chin and hairline.
4. Rinse until no foam remains. Rinse the brush head and stand the bottle upright.
STEP 2: AC Pad BHA (once a day, evening is best; oily skin can go twice)
1. Pat dry. Lift one pad with the tong and close the lid straight away so the pads stay wet.
2. Swipe from the centre of the face outwards: forehead, nose, chin, then cheeks. Avoid the eye area.
3. Do not rinse. Give it 30 seconds, then continue with serum, moisturizer and, in the morning, sunscreen.
If skin ever feels dry, keep the evening wash and pad and skip the morning wash. A splash of water is enough.
Caution: for external use only. Avoid contact with eyes. Stop use and seek medical advice if irritation or any abnormality appears. Not for children under 3 years.
