                              FAQs
                              Your questions about skincare for acne, answered.

                              People with acne-prone skin often have excess sebum, which can make their skin more susceptible to clogged pores and breakouts. Oil control is often a key benefit of acne treatment products.
                              A primary cause is clogged hair follicles. When dead skin cells, dirt, and excess oil plug these tiny holes in the skin, the result can be pimples, blackheads, and whiteheads.
                              Salicylic acid is a key ingredient in Acne Solutions™, Clinique’s acne skincare collection. It helps clear dead skin cells that can contribute to clogged pores.
                              Clinique’s 3-step skincare for acne is clinically proven to help get skin clear. You’ll see up to 36% clearer skin in 3 days and 3 steps with the Acne Solutions™ Clear Skin System.* All 3 steps—Cleanse, Exfoliate, Treat—are designed to work together to help get acne under control fast. Acne Solutions™ Clinical Clearing Gel is a potent spot treatment for breakouts that gets results as good as a topical prescription for clearing acne.**

                              **In a 12-week clinical study.
                              After you’ve had an acne breakout, you might notice dark spots or post-acne marks, also known as post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. Even Better ClinicalTM Dark Spot Clearing Serum helps improves the look of uneven skin tone, including post-acne marks.
                              A consistent acne skincare routine, like our Acne Solutions™ Clear Skin System, will help keep acne-prone skin in the clear. It also helps to keep hands, hair, and other potential irritants away from your face. The strap on a bike helmet, holding your phone against your cheek, even cupping your chin in your hand can transmit dirt and oil, irritating skin and leading to breakouts.
