    One simple step that works to keep acne and acne scars away.

    Niacinamide (aka Niapads ®) face pads help keep acne away by scrubbing open clogged pores, oily residues blackheads and exfoliation. Feel a pimple coming? Just wet a pad, place it on the pimple and remove it when dry. Sit back and watch pimple disappear. Works on body acne too.

    These pads also help reduce skin hyperpigmentation (acne scars). Try it and see the difference.

    The problem with super dry skin is that the sebum can’t get out. When the sebum can’t reach the surface of the skin, the pores get clogged, causing blemishes. Light moisturizers can be applied directly over a blemish, but any thick creams should be placed around a blemish to avoid clogged pores.

    Accutane causes serious liver issues, you are better off just eating healthy, showering daily, drink A LOT OF WATER, and not popping your acne.
