Background

We, at Acne in review, had heard a lot about Peter Thomas Roth and his passion for skin care. Our review team was eager to examine the skin care products by Peter Thomas. Initially he developed specific acne treatment products, but with time also started offering products for other skin related issues such as aging, skin discoloration, etc.

However, Peter Thomas’ main passion remains to fight the root cause of acne and clear up the skin. Apart from acne, Peter Thomas Roth also offers products for other skin problems such as Blackheads/ Clogged Skin, Dry/ Dehydrated Skin, Dullness, Hyperpigmentation/ Uneven Complexion, Large Pores, Mens Grooming, Rosacea & Redness, Shine, and Normal Skin.

Our acne review team discovered that Peter Thomas Roth mainly promises to do the following…

• Cleanse skin
• Clear up acne and blackheads
• Refine and unclog the pores
• Reduce the appearance of fine lines
• Prevent further acne breakouts

Ingredients

The acne treatment products by Peter Thomas Roth are made up of clinically tested and dermatologist recommended ingredients. The ingredients used are safe to use and show effective results in clearing up the skin. The active ingredients used in Peter Thomas products include…

Salicylic Acid (BHA) – It is the most active acne fighting ingredient present in the products. It works by penetrating the follicle and encouraging the shedding of skin cells within it. Thus, it helps in keeping the pores free of the cellular debris. This further helps in reducing the number of pores blockages and reducing the acne breakouts in the skin.

Sulfur – Acne is generally caused due to excess production of sebum by the oil glands. Sulfur absorbs the excess oil and this helps in controlling formation of future acne.

The acne treatment products also contain natural antioxidants like green tea extracts, which helps in protecting the skin against the free radicals damage.
