Effaclar Micropeeling Cleansing Gel For Oily Skin 200ml

La Roche-Posay Effaclar Micro-Peeling Cleansing Gel is an exfoliating foaming cleanser for the face and body, formulated for oily, acne-prone skin with persistent blemishes, clogged pores and post-blemish marks. It uses a Tri-Acid Complex with 2% salicylic acid, 1% PHA and 0.5% lactic acid to remove excess sebum, unclog pores and smooth uneven skin texture. Recommended by dermatologists, this rinse-off cleanser is designed for stubborn imperfections and can be used on blemish-prone areas of the face and body. Its fresh foaming gel texture removes impurities while providing targeted exfoliation, making it useful for persistent congestion in Lebanon's hot, humid climate. Available from The DistriQt.

• Introduce Effaclar Micro-Peeling Gel gradually with spaced-out use, particularly if your skin is new to exfoliating acids.
• Apply the gel to wet skin on the face or body and gently massage until it foams.
• Rinse thoroughly with water and avoid direct contact with the eyes; rinse immediately if contact occurs.
• Follow with an appropriate moisturiser, and use at least SPF30 during the daytime as part of an acne-focused routine.

• Deeply unclogs pores by combining cleansing with exfoliating acids that remove accumulated dead surface cells and impurities.
• Removes excess sebum to help control the oily, shiny appearance associated with acne-prone skin.
• Reduces visible spots, with La Roche-Posay reporting clinically proven improvement in the appearance of blemishes.
• Targets persistent imperfections on both the face and body, including areas prone to recurring congestion.
• Helps post-blemish marks look less visible, with 90% of subjects agreeing marks appeared reduced after four weeks.
• Smooths uneven skin texture through its combination of salicylic acid, PHA and lactic acid.

Effaclar Micro-Peeling Gel is best suited to persistent blemishes, clogged pores, blackheads, excess sebum, shine, uneven texture and post-blemish marks on the face or body. It is intended for more stubborn imperfections than La Roche-Posay's regular Effaclar Purifying Cleansing Gel. In Lebanon's heat and humidity, it can help address oil and congestion while providing targeted rinse-off exfoliation.

• 2% Salicylic Acid — a beta-hydroxy acid that penetrates oily pores and exfoliates to help clear persistent imperfections and congestion.
• 1% PHA — provides exfoliating action as part of the Tri-Acid Complex to support smoother-looking skin texture.
• 0.5% Lactic Acid — an alpha-hydroxy acid that exfoliates the skin surface to help improve uneven texture.
• Zinc Gluconate — supports the formula's purifying action and helps address excess sebum on oily skin.

Does La Roche-Posay Effaclar Micro-Peeling Gel work for acne and clogged pores?
It is specifically formulated for oily, acne-prone skin with persistent imperfections. Its exfoliating and purifying ingredients remove excess sebum and impurities while deeply unclogging pores, and La Roche-Posay states it is clinically proven to reduce the appearance of spots.

Is Effaclar Micro-Peeling Gel good for body acne?
Yes. La Roche-Posay specifically describes it as a face and body wash for persistent imperfections. This makes it suitable for blemish-prone areas beyond the face where excess oil and clogged pores are concerns.

What's the difference between Effaclar Micro-Peeling Gel and Effaclar Purifying Cleansing Gel?
Effaclar Micro-Peeling Gel contains 2% salicylic acid and is designed for more stubborn imperfections, while the regular Effaclar Purifying Cleansing Gel does not contain salicylic acid. La Roche-Posay also advises introducing the Micro-Peeling cleanser gradually with spaced-out use.

Can I use Effaclar Micro-Peeling Gel every day?
La Roche-Posay advises introducing this cleanser slowly with spaced-out usage because it is formulated for stubborn imperfections. How often you progress to using it should depend on skin tolerance, especially if your routine already contains exfoliating acids or other acne treatments.
