La Roche-Posay Effaclar Micro-Peeling Gel targets the stubborn buildup that clogs your pores daily. Unlike a basic cleanser, this gel micro-exfoliates your skin while it washes. Use it daily and watch your pores clear, your texture smooth, and breakouts fade.
Key Benefits
- Deep pore purification: actively unclogs blocked pores to visibly reduce blackheads and congestion.
- Gentle micro-exfoliation: resurfacing action smooths your skin texture without causing irritation.
- Sebum control: removes excess oil for a cleaner, less shiny finish all day.
- Spot fading over time: consistent use progressively reduces the look of post-acne marks.
- Breakout prevention: daily use stops new imperfections before they form.
- La Roche-Posay formula: dermatologist-developed so even sensitive, reactive skin stays comfortable.
Key Ingredients
La Roche-Posay Thermal Spring Water: the brand's selenium-rich spring water calms irritation and reinforces your skin barrier throughout cleansing. It keeps the formula safe for daily use on reactive skin. Micro-peeling complex: targeted resurfacing agents dissolve surface oil and dead cell buildup that blocks your pores. Used consistently, this complex visibly reduces blackheads and smooths rough texture.
How to Use
Apply a small amount to wet skin each morning, evening, or both. Massage over your face in gentle circular motions to build a light lather. This activates the micro-peeling step. Extend to your chest, shoulders, or back for body breakouts. Rinse thoroughly with water afterward. Use consistently for several weeks to see real improvement in pore clarity and texture.
