We all wish to stay far away from acne but often the breakouts are not in our control. Acne is a phase of internal imbalance, and rather than trying to fix it quickly using fast-working chemicals, the more sustainable approach is to heal it by following a natural skincare ritual consistently, to assist your skin in self-healing. OC Mini Ritual Kit for Acne Prone Skin does just that by making your skin more resilient. It comprises of our crowd favorite gentle cleanser, Mesmerising African Black Cleansing Potion, which exfoliates your skin while hydrating it, Oil Balancing Skin Tonic that tightens the pores, and Acne Control Creme which is a calm and non-comedogenic blend that inhibits acne causing microbes.
It is important to follow usage instructions. If your skin is highly sensitive or acne prone, start with step (1) for 3 days, then introduce step (3) for 3 days, and finally, add step (2) in between.
Storage Instructions: Store in a cool dry place avoiding direct heat, sunlight or moisture. Use it fresh and daily to see best results.

1. How long will this last?
The OC Trial Kits are a miniature size of our Mini Rituals for different skin types so it is designed to give you a feel and experience of our textures and products for roughly 21 days.
2. When will I see a difference on my acne?
The number of days in which you see a difference on your skin varies from person to person and skin to skin. Acne takes a while and a 360 approach including lifestyle, food and stress management. We would request you to be consistent and you will definitely notice a healthier skin overtime.
3. Does it help with old acne scars?
This kit will help in reducing the appearance of scars. For old acne scars, please use our Clarifying and Regenerating creme. It is fortified with Helichrysum and Turmeric essential oils that lighten old acne marks.
4. Are these non-comedogenic products?
Yes. All formulations in this kit are carefully curated keeping sensitive and acne prone skin in mind. They are all gentle, effective and non-comedogenic.
5. I’m 40+ and I’m suddenly experiencing acne. Will this work?
Yes, it will work. Adult acne are mostly hormonal and the oil blends used in this formulation help skin heal from within.
7. Is it to be used in the day or night?
Our formulations are light weight and get absorbed into your skin without leaving your skin sticky for the day. You can create your own ritual with these formulations. However, we suggest that you use the entire ritual consisting of these 3 products morning and night to see visible results.
8. Can I use it with my other skincare products?
Yes. These formulations can be used with any active based skin care products. They will rather form a protective layer on your skin and reduce any sensitivity caused by acids and actives.
9. Can I use sunscreen after this?
None of our formulations contain SPF so it can’t replace a sunscreen but if you are using one we would suggest you to continue your routine while incorporating our Trial Kit in it. Our formulations are a blend of natural oils and therapeutic grade essential oils which help maintain your skin barrier.
10. Can I wear makeup with this?
Of course you can. This ritual is a great base for makeup! Just wait for 1-2 minutes to let the product get absorbed into your skin and go ahead with your makeup. Though with regular usage of the Trial Kit you will notice a healthy glowing skin over time, making you want to flaunt your bare skin more often.
11. Why is it so expensive?
Chemical based products are sometimes cheaper but they harm your skin in the long run. On the other hand, OC formulations are made with the best quality of oils and essential oils to give you the highest efficacy. Interestingly, many who initially think they’re expensive, change their mind after trying them. Most people who try it feel it is a good investment and switching to OC saves them the salon/treatment costs! (Add something about getting the SKINTYPE300 coupon)
12. I’m experiencing rashes / breakouts after using it a few times. What should I do?
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.
13. Can I use this during pregnancy?
Congratulations, this is the time to relax and pamper yourself! During pregnancy, your skin may become sensitive and your sense of smell can be stronger, so using products with synthetic ingredients and artificial fragrance can be harsh. Our formulations are prepared by accurately following aromatherapy dosage. Each and every ingredient that we add is plant derived, so do not be afraid of using them.
14. Can I use it on my clinically treated skin?
Yes. These formulations can be used on clinically treated skin. They will rather form a protective layer on your skin and reduce any sensitivity caused by the treatments.
15. Can I use these products and go out in the sun, since essential oils can be photosensitive?
Essential oils can be photo sensitive only when used incorrectly. Our formulations are made by accurately following aromatherapy dosage. So don’t be afraid of enjoying some sunshine! In fact, we’d recommend you do this ritual again after sun exposure, to get the damage-repair benefits in these oils.
