Replenishing Acne Treatments

Dr. Pimple Popper's SLMD Blemish Cream is Gentle and Effective

Dr. Pimple Popper's newest acne treatment has dropped and is combating one of the main annoyances regarding acne-specific cleansers: dry skin. While products containing acne-fighting ingredients help with the removal of blemishes, they often leave behind skin that's dry, flaky and irritated. To fight this, the brand's SLMD Blemish Cream has removed benzoyl peroxide from its ingredient listing, resulting in an all-over face treatment that targets problem spots, without drying out the skin.

This cream achieves this as it contains 3% colloidal sulfur, which inhibits acne growth while regulating the skin's oil production and exfoliating the face. The SLMD Blemish Cream was designed for all ages and skin types as it's both gentle yet effective.
