What is blemish-prone skin?
Blemish-prone skin is a type of skin that is prone to breakouts such as pimples, blackheads, and whiteheads.
It is a common skin type that can affect people of all ages but is most common during puberty.
If you have blemish-prone skin, it is important to choose skincare products that are non-comedogenic
(these are products that are less likely to clog pores) and to avoid picking or popping blemishes.
What makes blemishes worse?
There are a number of ways blemishes can be worsened, such as:
- Scrubbing or washing your skin too hard: This can irritate the skin and cause inflammation, which can lead to more blemishes.
- Using harsh soaps or chemicals: These can also irritate the skin and make blemishes worse.
- Using non comedogenic makeup products: Comedogenic products that can clog pores, which can lead to breakouts. Where possible, try to opt for oil-free makeup and remove makeup regularly and properly. We recommend double cleansing to give your skin the best chance at a blemish-free, even skin tone.
- Picking or popping pimples or spots: This can spread bacteria and cause infection, which can make blemishes worse and lead to scarring.
- Touching your face throughout the day: This can transfer dirt, oil, and bacteria to your skin, which can lead to blemishes.
- Stress: Stress can trigger the release of hormones that can worsen acne.

To summarise, "blemish-prone" encompasses a broader range of skin imperfections beyond just acne, while "acne-prone" specifically refers to skin that is more prone to developing acne lesions. Both terms highlight the skin's tendency to experience different types of skin irregularities, emphasising the need for appropriate skincare and treatment to address these concerns effectively.

What are the 7 types of acne?
Acne manifests in various forms, each presenting its own set of challenges. The seven primary types of acne include:
- Whiteheads: Small, closed, white or skin-coloured bumps caused by clogged pores.
- Blackheads: Open, visible pores filled with oxidised sebum and dead skin cells, appearing black.
- Papules: Small, red, tender bumps often associated with inflammation and sensitive to touch.
- Pustules : Similar to papules but with a white or yellow centre containing pus.
- Nodules: Large and solid lesions of abnormal tissue, forming deep within the skin and often requires medical attention.
- Cysts: Painful, pus-filled lesions that can cause scarring and are also best managed by a dermatologist.
- Cystic Acne: Severe, deep-seated acne characterised by large, inflamed cysts, often leaving lasting scars.
