Description of action
Tea Tree Oil Cleanser is a scrub-based washing oil (20%) that effectively dissolves sebum, makeup and surface contamination without violating the natural lipid barrier of the skin. Tea oil (1%) has antibacterial properties and helps control the secretion of sebaceous, making it particularly useful for the tendency to form blackheads and inflammations. Lavender oil (0.15%) soothes irritation and complements the antiseptic effect of the composition. The double cleaning technique, first on dry, then moistened skin, allows the oil to mulsify with water and thoroughly remove impurities without leaving the oily film.
The Azelaic Trx Foam Cleanser is the second stage of purification that goes beyond the standard facial washing. Azelainic acid (3%) reduces the reproduction of bacteria responsible for acne, soothes inflammation and inhibits excessive production of melanin, which supports the alignment of skin color. Tranxamic acid (2%) acts on extra-flammatory and postsolar discolorations, blocking the pathway of melanin synthesis at cellular level. Niacinamide (0.5%) supplements the formula with anti-inflammatory, mitigating and supporting regeneration of the skin barrier.
The use of both products together creates a complete two-stage purification protocol: the first stage removes lipophilic impurities and makeup, the second stage — hydrophilic and simultaneously provides active ingredients affecting specific skin problems. Dermomedica developed this set for skin requiring regular supervision of inflammation and discoloration without giving up daily hydration.
To whom?
- Fatty and mixed leather with a tendency to clogging pores and formation of blackheads
- Skin with inflammatory acne and rosacea
- Skin with non-flammatory, oral or medicinal discolorations
- Sensitive and irritated skin requiring mild but effective formulas
- Skin dehydrated and dry, which needs cleaning without drying effect
- People with vascular problems and excessive sebum secretion seeking routine care without aggressive detergents
Key active ingredients
- Squalane 20% — an emollient mimicking natural skin sebum; cleanses lipophilic impurities and prevents drying during washing.
- Tea Tree Oil 1% — essential oil from tea tree with antibacterial properties; it reduces the reproduction of bacteria responsible for acne lesions.
- Lavender Oil 0.15% — lavender oil to soothe skin irritation and supplement the antiseptic effect of tea oil.
- Azelainic acid 3% — reduces inflammation, acts antibacterially and inhibits local hyperpigmentation; recommended for rosy acne and discoloration.
- Tranxamic acid 2% — blocks the pathway of melanin synthesis; reduces extra-flammatory and parasolar discolorations.
- Niacinamide 0.5% — soothes irritation, supports regeneration of the hydrolipid barrier and acts anti-inflammatory.
Usage
- Tea Tree Oil Cleanser (stage 1): Apply the product to dry hands, then spread on dry face. Massage gently for two minutes. Wet your face with water, continuing the massage until the oil swells and becomes cloudy. Wash thoroughly with hot water.
- Azelaic Trx Foam Cleanser (Step 2): Apply the foam to the moist face. Massify with circular motions. Wash with warm water.
- Use in the morning and evening.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this set suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes, the set is indicated for sensitive skin — the oil based on creaking and jojoba oil does not violate the lipid barrier, and foam contains niacinamide (0.5%) and azelainic acid (3%), which soothes irritation instead of exacerbating it. However, it is worth observing the skin reaction for the first few use, especially in the case of very reactive skin.
In what order are both products used?
First Tea Tree Oil Cleanser on dry skin (Step 1), then Azelaic Trx Foam Cleanser on moist skin (Step 2). The oil is the first to remove makeup, filters and sebum; foam cleanses the residue and provides active ingredients on the already purified skin.
Does Azelaic Trx foam help to discoloration after acne?
Yes — foam formula contains traneksamic acid (2%) and azelainic acid (3%), which inhibit the synthesis of melanin and can gradually reduce extra-flammatory discoloration. Effects require regular use and support with wide sun protection during the day.
Does Tea Tree Oil Cleanser effectively remove makeup and SPF filter?
Yes — savana based washing oil (20%) dissolves lipophilic impurities, including makeup and sunscreens. The dry skin application technique with subsequent water wetting ensures full emulsion and accurate washing.
How long do you rub the oil on your face?
The manufacturer recommends massage for 2 minutes on dry skin before wetting water. This time allows the oil to effectively dissolve sebum and impurities before emulsion.
Is the set suitable for everyday use?
Yes, both products are intended for use in the morning and evening as daily cleaning protocol. Active ingredients concentrations (azelainic acid 3%, tranexamic acid 2%, niacinamide 0.5%) were selected to be safe with regular, daily use.
Do you need an SPF filter during the day after using the set?
Yes, azelainic acid and tranexamic acid work on discoloration, and their effects can be neutralized by unprotected UV exposure. The use of SPF in the morning is indicated regardless of care and, with active treatment of discoloration, becomes a prerequisite for the effectiveness of the entire routine.
Does oil clog pores?
No, squalane is a component with low comedogenic potential, similar to natural sebum. The oil is designed for mixed and greasy skin with a tendency to clogging pores and blackheads, and its formula is designed to purify the mouths of the bellows rather than block them.
