skinChemists is the award-winning, London, England skincare company. Our Best Selling, top rated Spot Treatment works to clear blemishes, minimize pores, and even skin tone.

What it does for you
- Targets breakouts
- Clears blemishes
- Minimizes the look of pores
Key Ingredients (Why it works)
- Niacinamide: Helps minimize the look of pores, even out skin tone, and reduce redness for a clearer, brighter complexion.
- Salicylic Acid: A beta-hydroxy acid that gets deep into pores to clear out excess oil and reduce the appearance of blemishes.
Ideal for
Ideal for anyone dealing with adult breakouts who wants a targeted, effective solution that tackles blemishes without stripping skin.
For the Best Results
- Week 1: Blemishes may start to look less red and irritated from the first few uses.
- Week 4: With regular use, breakouts may become less frequent and skin can begin to look clearer.
- Week 8: Over time, skin may appear more even-toned and consistently clearer — though results can vary.
How to Use
Cleanse the affected area thoroughly before applying. Using a clean fingertip or cotton bud, apply a small amount directly onto the blemish. Leave on to absorb — do not rub in aggressively. For best results, apply in the evening and leave overnight. Use as needed when blemishes appear.
Concerns Addressed

Pro Tips
Resist the urge to over-apply — a thin layer targeted directly on the blemish works just as well as a thick one and reduces the risk of drying out the surrounding skin.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How do I use a spot treatment correctly?
A: Apply a small amount directly onto the blemish only — not all over the face. Use after cleansing in the evening, allow it to dry, and then apply your moisturizer over the top. Consistent nightly use helps reduce the size and redness of spots more quickly.
Q: Can I use this spot treatment under makeup?
A: Yes, apply the treatment and allow it to dry fully before applying any makeup on top. Keep in mind that spot treatments work best when left on overnight, so the evening application will give you the most benefit.
Caution
