Acne Control Crème

The number of days in which you see a difference on your skin varies from person to person. We have had customers who used our Acne Control Creme for 1-3 months and they’ve never gone back to whatever they were using before. We would urge you to use it consistently and for a longer duration to see visible results. Also when dealing with acne, please ensure your food and lifestyle choices are mindful and healthy.

You may experience a few initial bouts of acne when using the crème, this is absolutely normal. What you are experiencing is called ‘Purging’, which means your skin is reacting to an active ingredient, which is increasing skin cell growth. This is a good sign – it means your skin will soon start shedding dead skin cells and eventually reveal fresh, healthy skin.

Our Acne Control crème is perfect for acne scars as it is vitalised with Palmarosa essential oil, which is cytophylactic, which means it is capable of promoting cell growth. When used consistently you will notice your acne breakouts in future will leave lesser, nearly no marks.

Adult acne is very common and nothing to worry about. Our bodies and hormones change and that leads to acne. If you have active acne (which means acne appearing multiples times a month), please use our Acne control crème first and once it settles you can start introducing our Age-defying crème.

Our Acne control creme works wonders for balancing excess oils on the skin, while calming and settling acne bumps. This will be a perfect buy for you!

Yes, the oils used in this formulation are non-comedogenic so it will not block your pores.

Our Face Creme’s can be used both day and night and although it depends on individual preference we would suggest to use it twice a day to see visible results.

Actives can be a very easy choice when dealing with acne. However, in the long run they sensitize your skin, weaken the skin barrier and lead to other skin issues. If you already have or wish to add actives to your skincare, you must complement your skincare routine with our therapeutic Acne control crème, to ensure your skin gets all the nourishment from natural oils that it needs.

Actives like Salicylic acid and Benzoyl peroxide can be a very easy choice when dealing with acne and why not, it does give almost instant results. However, in the long run they sensitize your skin, weaken the skin barrier and lead to other skin issues. Oils, on the other hand, may take a while to show results with acne, but they do work and remove the problem from its core. So, YES it is not just effective but also a safer choice.

While our formulations are made with therapeutic grade essential oils that are known to have several benefits for pregnant and breastfeeding mothers, we still advise pregnant women to exercise caution during the first trimester of pregnancy, and avoid any active compounds in their personal care items.

Yes, all ingredients in this creme are plant-based and vegan. None of our formulations are tested on animals, they are tested on friends, family and fans of Oleum Cottage.

Our Face Cremes are 30 ml which will last for 2-3 months depending on usage behaviour. Do remember that just 1-2 pumps is enough for your entire face and neck. Our formulations are potent, so very little quantity is required.
