Your Post-Workout Skin Refresh
If you’re someone who loves to exercise, odds are you’re probably all too familiar with that post-sweat splotchiness and annoying breakouts that always seem to form immediately after you finish.
While a dedicated skincare regimen is crucial to healthy, clear skin, a seven-step routine isn’t always realistic, especially when you’re on the go. Here are our favorite products to get rid of pore-clogging oils to refresh your skin, diminish redness, and kill acne-causing bacteria:
When you’re in a rush:
Our Mandelic Acid 5+ Re-texturizing Pads are about to become your go-to post-sweat product. These pads tackle and eliminate oil, acne, and any pore-clogging or breakout-causing bacteria. They’re perfect for cleansing your face without the water, and you can also use them to cleanse your back, bum, and chest if you don’t have time to change!

When you have time to shower:

It can double as a body wash to stop breakouts on the face, arms, chest, back, and bum! The secret ingredients? Hops (to brighten the skin) and green tea antioxidants to soothe redness! It should be your go-to if you’re looking to refresh and rejuvenate your whole body post-sweat!

When there’s time for a full skincare routine:
While mandelic acid is great for killing pore-clogging bacteria, it can sometimes leave your skin feeling a bit dry. Our Vitamin C+ Sheer Defense SPF 30 is more than just a lightweight sunscreen. We also packed it full of vitamin C to renew the skin’s natural moisture barrier, improve overall skin clarity, increase elasticity and firmness! You should always re-hydrate the skin, especially if you have time after you cleanse the skin post-workout!

Winter weather has a drastic effect on your complexion. Cold temperatures, winds, and even the heaters in your home can all contribute to throwing your skin out of balance.
We put together a list of our three favorite products to help you restore hydration and maintain your glow even through the coldest and dryest of days.
Deep Hydration
To keep plump skin throughout the winter, it's essential that you use a deeply hydrating and nourishing moisturizer, especially around the eyes, like our Intensive Eye & Neck Cream. It's supercharged with peptides that firm, lift, and promote collagen production. This is a must-have to hydrate the outer layer of delicate skin while plumping beneath the surface.

Daily Moisture
It's not enough to use a deeply hydrating cream or moisturizer at night. It's also important to keep your skin hydrated throughout the day and keep it protected from the sun, even if it doesn't feel like you're getting any. Our Daily Facial Moisturizer with SPF 30 is perfect for everyday use and won't leave your skin feeling greasy. You can also use it on dry arms and hands!

Brightening
The worst part about winter? Lack of sunshine! It can leave a dewy complexion looking sallow and dull. Our favorite product to even out and brighten the complexion during the winter is our Vitamin C-20+ High Potency Serum. Heaters can oxidate the skin leading to dryness. This vitamin C serum is packed with antioxidants to reverse the effects, giving you a glowing complexion!

Want Amazing Skin? Add This to Your Skincare Routine
You need to add Mandelic acid into your skincare routine. Here's why...
Mandelic acid is a powerful, yet gentle acid that goes to battle with the oil, acne, and bacteria that disrupts the skin’s natural glow. Mandelic acid also provides a slight exfoliation, dislodging dead skin cells to loosen clogged pores and penetrating the skin to boost cell regeneration and skin elasticity.
What does all of this mean? If you struggle with blemishes, oily skin, dark spots, fine lines, acne or aging skin (so pretty much everyone!), then Mandelic acid is a must in your skincare routine.
the cleanser
Our Mandelic Acid 5+ Gel Cleanser with Green Tea Antioxidant is a cocktail of alpha hydroxy acid paired with hops, green tea to clean, clarify and rejuvenate your skin. The hops brighten, while the antioxidants in green tea soothe skin irritations and the mandelic acid minimizes the appearance of pores while also exfoliating the skin.

We want the best for you, and we want the best for the world around us. That is why we changed the formula for our BPO 10% Micronized Cleanser. Our BPO cleanser will no longer contain synthetic microbeads as they are just no good for the environment and can cause issues with ocean life. We love the ocean, so anything we can do to keep it clean, we’re going to do.
Have no fear though! Our new BPO 10% Gel Cleanser with Micronized Benzoyl Peroxide is more powerful than ever and will not only combat and clear acne-causing bacteria and prevent future breakouts - it will clear acne on contact!
We are on the hunt for eco-friendly microbeads that are both good for the environment and good for your skin. We are pretty picky when it comes to our products though, so we are continuing our search to find a product that lives up to our high standards. Once we find the perfect new eco-friendly microbead we will let you know.
Thanks for helping us keep the ocean clean!

As we move on in our Summer Series, we're talking about the thing that makes all of us groan - acne.
Summer is when you want to be outside - enjoying the lake, beach, or tennis courts. This, however, can lead to a whole lot of sweating which can lead to a whole lot of clogged pores (it's no wonder June is Acne Awareness Month!)
Don't let acne ruin your summer schedule. Go ahead and meet your friends at the pool and combat acne before it happens with beyond complexion's superhero acne-fighting products!
P.S. -> Don't forget to cover up with our non-clogging SPF when you're outside + moisturize with our acne-safe Daily Facial Moisturizer SPF 30!
