Breakouts need balance, not aggression.
Balance the Breakout brings together six targeted skincare essentials from SkinCeuticals, Medik8, Obagi Medical, Clinisoothe and Croma to create a complete routine for skin prone to breakouts, congestion, excess oil and post-blemish marks.
Designed to cleanse, clarify, exfoliate, hydrate and support the skin barrier, this edit combines carefully selected ingredients including salicylic acid, glycolic acid and mandelic acid with lightweight hydration and soothing skin support.
Rather than stripping or overloading blemish-prone skin, each step has a purpose: removing excess oil and surface build-up, helping to keep pores clear, improving the appearance of existing blemishes and post-blemish marks, while maintaining hydration and skin comfort.
What's Inside
SkinCeuticals Blemish + Age Cleanser
A refining gel cleanser formulated for oily and blemish-prone skin. A combination of exfoliating acids helps remove excess oil, impurities and dead surface skin cells while improving the appearance of congestion and uneven skin texture.
Medik8 Press & Clear
A gentle daily exfoliating toner powered by 2% encapsulated salicylic acid. Designed to help decongest pores, reduce the appearance of blemishes and refine skin texture without the harshness often associated with exfoliating acids.
SkinCeuticals Blemish + Age Defense Serum
A targeted oil-free serum created for adult blemish-prone skin. Its combination of salicylic, glycolic and dioic acids helps improve the appearance of blemishes, excess oil, uneven texture and post-blemish marks.
Obagi Medical Hydrate Light
A lightweight facial moisturiser that provides essential hydration without a heavy or greasy finish. Ideal for oily, combination and blemish-prone skin that still needs effective hydration and barrier support.
Clinisoothe+ Skin Purifier
A lightweight hypochlorous cleansing spray designed to help keep skin clean, calm and refreshed. An easy addition to a blemish-prone skincare routine, particularly when skin feels irritated or unsettled.
Croma Detox Face Mask × 4
Four sheet masks to use throughout your routine when skin needs a little extra care. Designed to support a fresh, balanced-looking complexion while providing a calming skincare ritual.
Why We Created Balance the Breakout
Blemish-prone skin is often treated with more and more actives, but stronger isn't always better.
This edit has been built around balance: effective exfoliation and blemish-targeting ingredients alongside lightweight hydration and skin support.
The result is a routine designed to help skin look clearer, smoother, calmer and more balanced, without forgetting the importance of maintaining a healthy skin barrier.
Who Is It For?
Balance the Breakout is particularly suited to:
- Oily and combination skin
- Blemish and breakout-prone skin
- Congested or blocked pores
- Blackheads and visible pores
- Uneven or rough skin texture
- Post-blemish marks
- Adult blemish-prone skin
How to Use Your Edit
Morning: Cleanse with SkinCeuticals Blemish + Age Cleanser, followed by Clinisoothe+ Skin Purifier and Obagi Medical Hydrate Light. Always finish your morning routine with a broad-spectrum SPF.
Evening: Cleanse, then introduce Medik8 Press & Clear and SkinCeuticals Blemish + Age Defense according to your skin's tolerance. Follow with Obagi Medical Hydrate Light.
Use your Croma Detox Face Masks as an additional treatment when desired.
If you are new to exfoliating acids, introduce active products gradually rather than using everything at once.
Balance the Breakout. Clearer-looking skin, without compromising the barrier.
