Product Details

Bryn Mawr Dermatology had this unique foaming cleanser designed especially for their patients suffering with clogged pores, acne breakouts and oily skin. It packs in a powerhouse of proven ingredients into a soothing, foamy cleanser that is sure to remove the environmental remains of the day in addition to make-up and natural oil build-up 

Benefits

• Air pump creates luxurious foam
• Natural oils to soothe skin
• Gently exfoliates skin without causing irritation
• Kills p. acnes bacteria that causes breakouts
• Eliminates clogged pores
• Evens out oily patches

Cleanse face and neck twice a day, once in the morning and once before you go to bed at night. Apply one pump of foamy cleanser to damp hands and massage gently into skin paying special attention to creases around your nose and mouth. Rinse thoroughly with warm water. Pat dry with a clean towel. If dryness or irritation occur, reduce application to once a day and counterbalance with a non-comedogenic moisturizer.

Acne is caused by many factors: hormonal changes, excess oil production, clogged pores, a bacteria called Propionibacterium acnes (P. acnes) and inflammation. It can also be aggravated by stress and certain medications. BMD Clarifying Foamy Cleanser helps reduce acne breakouts by killing P. acnes bacteria using a low dose of salicylic acid (SA). SA also conveniently exfoliates dead skin cells and helps clear out clogged pores. The cleanser also includes tea tree oil, which has shown to have effective anti-inflammation and antimicrobial properties.

Dr. Christine Stanko of Bryn Mawr Dermatology recommends following the simple sequence:

Cleanse. Treat. Moisturize. Protect. Repeat.

These steps will help resolve any issues your skin is experiencing and defend it against both the damaging assaults from outside your body - dirt, pollutants, UV exposure and pathogens like bacteria - and inside your body - pH imbalances, oil over/underproduction, overgrowth of your skin’s natural flora, and the natural aging process.

BMD’s Clarifying Foamy Cleanser is the perfect first step for those who are struggling with clogged pores, inflamed pimples or overly greasy skin. To treat skin, you may follow up with the BMD Glycolic Pads to further exfoliate the skin and create balance. Even oily-prone skin deserves to feel hydrated and calm. A moisturizer that does the trick is BMD’s Sheer Moisturizer which helps to strengthen the protective barrier of your skin, but is also non-comedogenic (does not clog pores). And finally, make sure to protect your skin every morning with an SPF of 30 or more - whether you plan to be outside or not! Elta has designed a sunscreen called Elta Clear that is light, contains Niacinamide to combat redness, and protects your skin from the discoloration that can occur after you have had an acne breakout. Repeat this regimen in the morning, and before you go to bed. Of course, you can skip the sunscreen at night.
