• It keeps pores from becoming blocked. As oil is produced, it travels up and out through the pores to lubricate skin. But in acne-prone skin, dead skin that would normally slough away actually collects in pores, trapping oil inside. Clarifying Cleanser for Acne-Prone Skin is formulated to remove surface dead skin from pores. • It helps reduce excess oil. Oil is produced in the sebaceous glands, which lie just under the skin’s surface. While a certain amount of oil is needed to soften the skin and maintain its protective barrier, excess oil can clog pores. The Mary Kay® System for Acne-Prone Skin is formulated to help remove excess oil. PRODUCT BENEFITS & CLAIMS Formulated with 2% salicylic acid, the products penetrate pores to unblock trapped oil and debris, helping to clear acne blemishes and control excess oiliness. All products also contain the botanicals Canadian willow herb, sea heather and burdock root. • Clarifying Cleanser for Acne-Prone Skin is a clear, lightweight formula that keeps surface dead skin from collecting in pores and helps remove excess oil. It quickly converts to a soft foam and rinses clean with no residue, leaving skin clean, refreshed and ready for the next step. • Pore-Purifying Serum for Acne-Prone Skin is a translucent, silky serum that helps control oil that may result in pimples. It absorbs quickly as it helps minimize the appearance of pores and helps reduce shine.
