Ah, acne. How we eternally loathe it. That’s never going to change, but maybe something else can. Our skin! If we could manage to clear up our acne and prevent future breakouts, that loathing wouldn’t even be a factor in our lives anymore. But we’ve tried so many products already, and sometimes they leave our skin looking even worse than how it looked before. If we can’t see real results, we don’t want to take that chance. That’s why we’re so excited to try this brand, beloved by one of the most beautiful actresses on all of television!

The La Roche-Posay Effaclar Dermatological Acne Treatment System 2-Month Supply is a three-step acne-fighting set that claims to be of professional strength! It consists of a cleanser, a toner and a spot treatment, and that spot treatment just so happens to be a part of former Vampire Diaries and current Fam actress Nina Dobrev’s nighttime skincare routine!

In a video for Harper’s BAZAAR, Dobrev finished off her skincare routine with the Effaclar Duo Acne Treatment. She mentioned that we only need “a very little amount” of the product, dabbing it onto a Q-tip. She then “zapped” her blemishes with the Q-tip, calling the treatment “an eviction notice for your face.” No unwelcome squatters here!

Step one of this system is the Effaclar Medicated Gel Cleanser. This cleanser features 2% salicylic acid, a popular acne-fighting ingredient, known for its potential to remove dead skin cells. This cleanser is meant to target excess oil and should be used twice a day to keep breakouts away!

Step two is the Effaclar Clarifying Solution, which is an exfoliating toner. This solution also features 2% salicylic acid, as well as 2% glycolic acid, one of the most loved exfoliating ingredients in all of skincare. This toner claims to target clogged pores, opening them up and letting them breathe! We should also use this step twice a day, after step one.

Step three is Dobrev’s pick, the Effaclar Duo Dual Action Acne Treatment. This dual-action treatment is formulated with benzoyl peroxide, an ingredient known for eliminating acne-causing bacteria at the source and preventing future breakouts!

This acne system is oil-free, non-comedogenic, fragrance-free and paraben-free. It claims to be gentle enough for sensitive skin, too! La Roche-Posay claims that we’ll see visible results after just one use of this system, with acne being reduced in as little as three days. Say goodbye to whiteheads, blackheads and other blemishes, because this may be the last time we see them!

Dermstore is offering double the rewards points on all purchases until April 14, 2019, so be sure to act fast! Not that anyone would actually want to put off having clearer skin. We just want everyone to get the best deal possible, along with their best complexion ever!
