The cells shed unevenly and combine with natural skin oils to form a plug which clogs the pore. Sebum oil and bacteria get trapped inside and continue to build up which leads to an infection, sometimes inflammation and eventually a blemish.

Turmeric combats this chronic problem. Curcumin fights bacteria on the surface of skin while deeply exfoliating pores so existing blemishes heal more quickly and emerging breakouts are brought to the surface and flushed out.

With regular use this cycle repeats and skin is retrained to work more efficiently, completing the work acne prone skin is unable to do so most breakouts are prevented from ever forming.
