UNDER CONTROL / sebum balancing booster for problematic, oily skin

BALANCING SKIN SEBUM

If you have oily skin, you know some issues are purely aesthetic (shiny skin on cheeks, forehead, chin or nose), while others cause more annoying problems. That’s because your skin’s sebum can clog your pores, making them appear larger and can also lead to spots or even acne.

UNDER CONTROL contains several actives with an effect on skin sebum production. Azeloglicina, succinic acid and ZincPCA are our innovative combination of 3 actives that slow down the rate of sebum production (sebum control).

The result is less greasy skin, fewer skin problems, a more balanced look throughout the day and even a slight matte effect due to ZincPCA.

LOVES SKIN, FIGHTS SPOTS

A lot of products targeted at spots or acne can contain aggressive actives that dry out your skin. That can lead to a host of new problems!

UNDER CONTROL is different. Our combination of next-generation actives is much more skin friendly while delivering amazing results. The 3 main actives work together, achieving stronger effects through synergistic action.

If you’re constantly fighting with spots, you know this is a long-term battle. By including UNDER CONTROL in your skincare routine, you can speed up this process and improve your results!

WHAT CAN YOU EXPECT?

This formulation works, so the main questions is – how intense will the effect be on your skin? Because each skin is different, it’s hard to predict. You should notice less oily skin (or at least slower sebum production during the day) in the first couple of days.

It takes longer to have an effect on spots, but as your skin gets a less oily, there should be fewer new spots.

How to Use

Apply 2-3 pumps on clean skin. Should be applied after cleansing (if used in the evening) and before serums or moisturizers. Avoid contact with eyes.

You can use this booster every day, both in the morning and in the evening. Usually, it’s most beneficial during a morning routine so it can slow down your skin oils during the day. Find a routine that works best for you!

Key Ingredients

Azeloglicina (Potassium azeloyl diglycinate)

Azeloglicina is a derivative of azelaic acid and a member of the next generation of actives. It has lightening properties, helping reduce the intensity of hyperpigmentations and redness. It helps balance sebum production, which makes this the perfect active for oily, problematic skin.

Succinic acid

Another next-gen member, succinic acid helps control skin oils and has a strong effect against spots or acne.

Zinc PCA

Zinc PCA is a zinc salt of Pyrrolidone Carboxylic Acid  (a “fun” name, right?). Helps control outbreaks and slows down sebum production, which results in less oily skin and fewer skin problems. Due to its astringent (tightening) effect, it help reduce the appearance of pores.

Gluconolactone

A PHA acid, gluconolactone is a gentle exfoliator and humectant. Helps keep your skin smooth and clear skin problems.
