What is blemish-prone skin?
It’s just a fancy way of saying your facial skin isn't perfectly smooth and even. Breakouts, acne, blackheads, dull skin, blemishes, redness, enlarged pores... we’re talking about all of that.
These little things can appear more easily on certain areas:
- For combination skin, you need to look at the T-zone: oily areas on the forehead, nose, and chin
- For oily skin, the entire face looks shiny
- Finally, if you have dry skin, you will feel tightness on your face
Why do I have blemishes?
Generally, it's due to excessive sebum production by the skin's sebaceous glands. This sebum is there to protect the skin and maintain its hydration. But things like hormones, stress, fatigue, the sun, diet, and pollution can increase this sebum production and create blemishes. It's a lot, but with the right actions, you can regain control of your skin!

Blackheads usually show up due to an accumulation of dead cells, impurities, bacteria, or even slightly intense sweating on the face. This whole happy mix comes along to clog the pores of the skin, creating this unsightly reaction.
The sebum gets trapped in these clogged pores, thus forming the famous comedones. These little villains can also be the result of ambient pollution, cosmetics that are a bit too oily, such as makeup, or even hands that aren't always perfectly clean touching the face.
Other culprits like alcohol, cigarettes, or simply skin aging can also create blemishes, an irregular skin texture, dryness, or even spots. And of course, the sun, which can dry out the skin, cause dark spots, and be the origin of early wrinkles.
