Take Control™ is formulated for oily and combination skin to help improve the appearance of blemishes, clogged pores, excess oil, post-acne marks, uneven skin texture, and visible redness.
For acne-prone skin, use it morning and evening as your primary serum, adding SkinHero™ 2-3 nights per week to help support post-acne marks and fine lines — the two work through different pathways and are designed to be used together.
If your skin is dry or dehydrated, layer it with Jelly Drops™ for lightweight hydration without added dryness. If you have sensitive skin, pair it with Replenish™ to help support the skin barrier.
For perimenopausal skin, combine it with SkinHero™: azelaic acid helps address the appearance of blemishes and discoloration while bakuchiol supports cell turnover and helps calm the look of redness, different mechanisms, complementary results.

Salicylic acid is a beta hydroxy acid (BHA) that helps unclog pores by removing excess oil and dead skin cells while gently exfoliating the skin. In Refresh Cleanser, it helps cleanse oily and blemish-prone skin. Because it's a rinse-off cleanser, salicylic acid has less contact time with the skin than leave-on treatments.

Yes. While Take Control™ is designed as a daily clarifying serum, it can also be applied directly to individual blemishes as a targeted spot treatment using your fingertip. The 1% Salicylic Acid helps unclog pores by removing excess oil, while the 10% Azelaic Acid helps calm the look of inflammation and the post-acne mark it can leave behind.

Use the Balancing Collection morning and evening in the following order::
Refresh Cleanser: Apply 2-3 pumps to damp skin, massage gently, and rinse thoroughly.

Take Control™ Clarifying Serum: Apply 2-3 drops to clean, dry skin and gently press into the face.
Under Control™ Gel Cream: Finish with a pea-sized amount to lock in lightweight hydration and help control excess oil. For best results, apply to dry skin after your serum has fully absorbed. This gel cream is specifically formulated for oily and combination skin and may not be the best choice for normal or dry skin types.
