Anti-Acne Serum
Anti-Acne Serum (10% Sulfur + Niacinamide)
Formulated specifically for Pakistan’s humid, dusty climate, this anti acne serum combines 10% refined sulfur with Niacinamide (Vitamin B3) to reduce active breakouts, control excess oil, and visibly improve acne scars with consistent night use. The lightweight formula stays comfortable on skin overnight without the harsh rebound dryness often associated with traditional acne treatments.
Designed for people dealing with frequent breakouts, oily shine, and post-acne marks, this serum works where acne starts, inside congested pores, while supporting the skin barrier instead of stripping it.

How This Anti Acne Serum Works Differently
Many acne treatments rely on aggressive exfoliation or benzoyl peroxide, which can irritate skin, bleach fabrics, and trigger rebound oiliness. Unlike benzoyl peroxide, this formula uses refined sulfur, which targets acne-causing bacteria and excess sebum without disrupting the skin barrier.
Sulfur helps keep pores clear, while Niacinamide (Vitamin B3) supports barrier repair, calms visible redness, and improves the appearance of acne scars over time. This balanced approach makes it suitable for consistent use rather than short, harsh treatment cycles.

What to Expect With Regular Use
Day 1–3
Redness around active breakouts appears calmer. Skin feels less oily by morning.
Week 2
Active pimples begin to flatten. Fewer new breakouts appear in oil-prone areas.
Week 4
Post-acne marks start to look lighter. Skin texture appears smoother and more balanced.
Consistency matters. This serum is designed for gradual, visible improvement rather than overnight irritation.
How to Use (Night Routine)
Cleanse your face and allow skin to dry completely. Apply a thin layer to active breakouts or acne-prone areas at night. Avoid layering with multiple strong activities on the same evening. Once acne is under control, use it on alternate nights to maintain clarity.
Always use sunscreen during the day when addressing acne scars.
Best Paired With in Your Skincare Routine
This serum works well within a simple routine and can be rotated with an anti aging serum when focusing on post-acne marks and uneven tone. It also fits seamlessly into broader routines built around face serums without overwhelming the skin.
Why This Formula Fits Pakistan’s Climate
Humidity, dust, and frequent sweating can cause pores to clog faster. This serum was developed to stay lightweight, avoid pore-blocking residues, and work overnight when skin naturally repairs itself. The refined sulfur minimizes the traditional strong odor while maintaining effectiveness. This serum is developed under the formulation standards of Hair Energy, with a focus on gradual, skin-respecting results rather than harsh or short-term fixes. The goal is long-term clarity that fits real routines.
