Acne is a common skin condition that affects millions of people worldwide. It occurs when hair follicles become clogged with oil and dead skin cells, leading to the formation of pimples, whiteheads, blackheads, and even cysts. Acne can be frustrating and embarrassing, causing individuals to seek out solutions for clear and healthy-looking skin. At Skin Care Jungle, we understand the struggle with acne and offer a range of products from our brands Magnolia Orchid or MO Clinical to help combat it. We know that not all acne is the same – there are different types of acne caused by various factors such as genetics, hormones, diet, stress levels, etc. That’s why our products cater to different skin types while targeting specific concerns.

The Basics: Understanding Your Skin Type

Before diving into discussing acne treatment options from over-the-counter (OTC) to prescription solutions offered by Magnolia Orchid or MO Clinical let’s quickly review the basics – understanding your skin type.
  • Oily: This type produces excess sebum and tends towards large pores.
  • Dry: Dry skin lacks natural moisture resulting in tightness or flakiness.
  • Combination: As the name suggests this type has both oily patches on some areas while dry in others.
  • Sensitive: Sensitive skins tend towards redness/irritation making them easily prone to breakouts.
Knowing your skin type will help you select appropriate skincare routines effectively. Now without further ado let’s explore how Magnolia Orchid or MO Clinical can help treat various forms of acne!

Over-The-Counter (OTC) Solutions

OTC products are easily accessible and can be purchased without a prescription. They are suitable for mild to moderate acne but may take longer to show results compared to prescription solutions. Magnolia Orchid or MO Clinical offers an extensive range of OTC products that cater to different skin types.
  • For oily/acne-prone skin, our MO Clinical Advanced Acne Treatment Gel is formulated with Salicylic Acid (2%) and Tea Tree Oil which help unclog pores, reduce inflammation, and control excess oil production.
  • Dry/sensitive skins need extra care while treating acne. Our Magnolia Orchid Gentle Soothing Cleanser contains Aloe Vera extract, Vitamin E & C along with Hyaluronic Acid which gently cleanses the skin without stripping away moisture.
  • If you have combination skin type then try out our MO Clinical Balancing Moisturizer Cream enriched with Green Tea Extracts & Sodium Hyaluronate helps keep your T-zone under control while keeping other areas hydrated.

The Power of Prescription Solutions

Prescription medication is recommended by dermatologists for severe cases of acne that do not respond well to OTC treatments. These medications work by targeting the root cause of acne – bacteria (P.acnes), sebum production or hormones contributing towards it. Magnolia Orchid or MO Clinical has a range of prescription-strength products that require a doctor’s approval before use.
  • Our Magnolia Orchid Clinique du Parc Serum features Benzoyl Peroxide (5%), Glycolic Acid and Niacinamide working together as an antibacterial agent reducing P.acnes growth in addition to exfoliating dead cells from the surface resulting in smoother-looking skin.
  • Hormonal imbalances play a significant role in acne breakouts. Our MO Clinical PMS Spot Treatment Cream contains Estrogen, Progesterone and Vitamin E which helps normalize hormonal levels resulting in fewer flare-ups.
