THE RITUAL FOR:
Acne + Congestion
When skin feels stuck, reactive, or unpredictable—oil rising, breakouts forming, texture lingering—it can be a challenge to know where to begin.
This adaptable ritual for oily and acne prone skin is designed to meet you right where you are. Never to strip or suppress, but to soften, clarify, and support your skin as it finds its way back to balance, health, and vibrancy.
A Simple Way to Begin
To build a skincare routine for acne-prone skin, start with:
Personalize Your Ritual
Choose Your Moisture
Good moisture is the single most important choice you can make for your skin’s health. It is what stays. It is what feeds in.
When skin is properly nourished, oil production begins to regulate, inflammation softens, and the barrier strengthens, changing everything that follows.
Primary moisture for calm + comfort
The Blue Cocoon
Daily Moisturizing Concentrate
Daily replenishing concentrate for skin that feels inflamed, sensitive, or overwhelmed.
Deeply calming, nurturing, and restorative, especially comforting for painful or cystic breakouts and compromised barrier function.
Primary moisture for energy + glow
The Youth Dew
Balancing Facial Serum
Daily antioxidant serum for skin that feels imbalanced, congested, or depleted.
Delivers clarity, balance, and visible vitality, particularly supportive for mature, dry, oily, and acne-prone skin.
Most people want the benefits of both
The Blue Cocoon + The Youth Dew
Many clients alternate or layer the two, allowing skin to receive both calm and energy as needed.
Pair Moisture With Hydration
Water is necessary for both skin prep and hydration.
Begin with what’s already at your sink and shower, then amplify benefits with The Jasmine Garden.
With a base of skin-relieving organic rose cellular water and cooling colloidal silver, The Jasmine Garden is particularly supportive to acneic and sensitive skin.
Hydrate Throughout the Day
Mist when you get the urge to pick or feel a flush of heat, as well as all throughout the day to support clarity and calm.
Then: Choose Your Treatment
Treat & Exfoliate
Our powerhouse herbal treatments are where you can make the most immediate impact on skin texture and appearance, as well as prep the complexion to effectively absorb moisture.
When to choose each treatment for oily & acne-prone skin:
Treatment • 1-4× Weekly
The Problem Solver
Warming Facial Treatment Masque
Our universal #1. Extra supportive for redness, breakouts, inflammation, itch, finicky skin. A reliable reset when skin feels reactive or uncertain.
Exfoliant • 2–3× Weekly
The Clean Dirt
Brightening Exfoliant Treatment
Flakes, congestion, hyperpigmentation, dullness, lack of brightness, post-acne marks. Refines the surface of the skin, clearing buildup and restoring brightness.
A SIMPLE RHYTHM:
Reach for one every few days, alternating based on what your skin is asking for.
“I think of The Clean Dirt for what you see and feel on the surface—texture, flakes, pigmentation—and The Problem Solver for what you feel underneath: heat, itch, pain. When I’m not sure which direction to go, The Problem Solver always helps.”
The weekly approach
The Clean Dirt + The Problem Solver
Rotate both within your week for maximum impact — The Clean Dirt clears the path, The Problem Solver steadies what's underneath. Most complexions benefit from both.
Lastly: Choose Your Cleanser
Cleanse & Release
Clear the slate to cleanse, support, and prepare skin — and make it the most sensorially spectacular moment of your day while you're at it.
What cleanser to choose for oily & acne-prone skin:
the oil cleanse
The Pendulum Potion
Grounding Release Facial Cleansing Oil
Your match when wearing makeup, sunblock, or craving a steamy, sensorial ritual that will also free pollutants, sweep away dead skin, and leave you feeling grounded and held. (pair with a warm cloth)
Cleanse, Mask + Exfoliate Multitasker
The Honey Mud
Enzyme & Acid Facial Pudding
Delight in a pudding-soft exfoliation experience that doubles as a silky, skin-reviving cleanse. Natural salicylic acid goes deep to clear the pore lining, softening congestion and awaking circulation.
