The care product you use depends on the severity of your acne and on the type of treatment you are undergoing.
If you are using medical treatment for acne, Eucerin DermoPurifyer Adjunctive Cream helps to alleviate some of the symptoms such as intense dryness. It should be applied five minutes after your medication so the treatment can absorb fully.
If you have mild to moderate acne, but are not undergoing medical acne treatment, use a soothing and mattifying moisturiser such as Eucerin DermoPurifyer Mattifying Fluid in the morning and evening.
For clearer and smoother-looking skin over time, you may also like to incorporate our skin renewal treatment into your routine. It is suitable for all blemish-prone skin that is not undergoing medical acne treatment and should be used once a day only − ideally in the evening. You can use it before the mattifying fluid or on its own.

Hi Ash. Thank you for your enquiry. Unfortunately we do not trade in the make-up market at all. May we suggest that you discuss this directly with the manufacturer of the item that you currently use. When applying the Adjunctive Soothing Care Cream, remember to "pat" it into the skin, rather than rubbing as this can help to alleviate the problem of pilling when using a foundation.

Hi KC. The Dermo Purifyer Adjunctive Soothing Cream. We are making the assumption that you are currently taking acne medication as this product is formulated to address the dryness associated with the side-effects of the acne medication (i.e. dryness). The Adjunctive Soothing Cream ensures sufficient moisture to avoid the dryness. It is very unusual to experience dryness from using this particular product. Perhaps it is the acne medication that is drying out the skin. Having said that, we would always recommend that if you are under the guidance of a Dermatologist, that you provide feedback about the product that has been recommended for you so that a decision can be made as to an alternative which may better suit your particular skin condition.
Hi Uniii.
The Adjunctive Soothing Cream should be used where dryness of the skin has occurred when taking acne medication. If your skin is still normal whilst using the Epiduo Gel, we would recommend using the Mattifying Fluid to moisturise in the morning and at night.
