Achieving clear and glowing skin can be a challenge, especially when dealing with stubborn back acne or “bacne”. The hot and humid climate in Singapore can exacerbate the condition, making it essential to have a customised skincare regimen tailored to combat back acne effectively. In this mini guide, we will walk you through a step-by-step process to clear back acne and achieve radiant skin even in Singapore’s challenging weather conditions.

1. Gentle Cleansing
For any effective skincare routine, cleansing stands as a fundamental step. It is imperative, especially in Singapore’s humid climate, to combat the accumulation of sweat and excess oil on the skin’s surface, which often leads to clogged pores and acne breakouts. Choosing a mild, non-comedogenic cleanser is essential as it cleanses the skin without causing irritation. Look for a cleanser that not only removes impurities effectively but also preserves the skin’s natural oils.
In the battle against acne, ingredients like salicylic acid and tea tree oil are renowned for their acne-fighting properties. These powerful components aid in unclogging pores and preventing acne formation. A standout product for addressing these concerns is the Acne Cleansing Gel from MD Dermatics. Infused with Salicylic acid, this cleansing gel is designed to clear up clogged sebaceous follicles while removing impurities, dirt, and excess oil.
2. Exfoliation Techniques
In preventing back acne, exfoliation plays a vital role by unclogging pores and removing dead skin cells. Chemical exfoliants, such as glycolic acid or lactic acid, are excellent choices for sensitive, acne-prone skin, as they dissolve dead skin cells and promote a healthier complexion. Opt for products like MD Dermatics’ Clarifying Scrub, a face and body scrub containing pore-clearing ingredients. This scrub effectively clears and unblocks clogged pores while gently exfoliating surface dead skin cells. Incorporate exfoliation into your routine once or twice a week, being mindful not to overdo it, as excessive exfoliation can irritate the skin and worsen acne.
3. Moisturising Right
Contrary to common belief, moisturising is needed even for acne-prone skin but remember to choose the right moisturiser that maintains hydration without worsening your acne condition. Consider water-based or non-comedogenic moisturiser like the MD Dermatics’ DayCalm Soothing Moisturiser that is lightweight and won’t clog your pores. This hypoallergenic moisturiser contains premium botanical extracts, providing deep hydration in the dermal layers while soothing inflammation and irritation. Hyaluronic acid-based products are also a great choice for Singapore’s climate as they provide intense hydration without feeling heavy on the skin.
4. Choosing Acne-Friendly Products
When it comes to choosing specific products to combat back acne, Indulgence Beauty offers a variety of back acne treatment options catering to different skin types and concerns. Look for cleansers containing salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide, both of which are effective in treating acne. MD Dermatics’ Acne Fighter gel is formulated with benzoyl peroxide and other potent acne-combating ingredients that aids in clearing existing acne and preventing new breakouts from occurring. The gel stimulates cellular activity and enhances cell regeneration, promoting healthier skin overall. Additionally, spot treatments with tea tree oil or sulphur can also be applied directly to acne lesions to speed up the healing process.
