FAQs

Q1. What do the specific actives — Ammonium Lactate and Zinc Lactate — contribute to this cleanser?
A1. Ammonium Lactate is an AHA (alpha-hydroxy acid) that exfoliates dead skin cells and unclogs pores during cleansing, addressing the comedone formation that drives acne. Zinc Lactate is an antimicrobial and sebum regulator that inhibits the bacterial activity in pores and reduces oiliness. Most acne cleansers rely on either exfoliation or antimicrobial action — Noreva Exfoliac Gel Face Wash uses both simultaneously, which is why it's categorised as 'intensive' rather than a standard oily-skin cleanser.

Q2. Will the AHA content cause a purging phase?
A2. At the concentration in a rinse-off cleanser with short contact time, the Ammonium Lactate provides a gentle exfoliating benefit without the significant purging effect that leave-on AHA treatments can cause. You may notice a slight initial increase in minor surface congestion during the first week, but a pronounced purging response is unlikely from a wash-off product.

Q3. Is it suitable for teenagers with moderate-to-severe acne?
A3. Yes — it's designed for exactly this profile. The combination of zinc sebum regulation and AHA exfoliation addresses both the oiliness and the surface congestion that characterise adolescent acne. It's non-comedogenic and dermatologically tested, making it safe for daily use as part of a teen skincare routine.

Q4. Can it be used alongside a benzoyl peroxide or retinoid treatment?
A4. Yes — use it as the cleansing step before applying any treatment. The AHA in the cleanser softens skin and loosens surface dead cells, which may improve the penetration and efficacy of leave-on treatments applied after. If combined with high-percentage benzoyl peroxide or prescription-strength retinoids, monitor for over-drying and reduce to once-daily use if tightness occurs.

Q5. Does it help with blackheads as well as active pimples?
A5. Yes — the Ammonium Lactate exfoliates inside the pore opening and at the skin surface, which loosens the oxidised sebum plugs that form blackheads over time. Results with blackheads take longer than with active inflamed spots — expect to see improvement in blackhead density after 3–4 weeks of consistent daily use rather than immediately.
