Hormonal Acne: The Cortisol Connection

Table of contents
Stress spikes cortisol, triggering excess oil, clogged pores, and inflammation-leading to hormonal breakouts. Worse yet, it slows skin recovery, making acne last even longer.
Vivant's Clinical Mandelic and Retinoid serums target hormonal acne by reducing oil, clearing pores, and revealing clear, radiant skin.
Clinical Mandelic Acid treats breakouts in all skin types, including sensitive and hyperpigmentation-prone skin by delivering non-irritating exfoliation plus antibacterial and melanin-inhibiting properties making it ideal for targeting acne and uneven tone and texture.
Vivant's Retinyl Propionate serums are the most potent non-prescription retinoids available for treating acne. These transformative targeted correctors work to boost cellular metabolism, clear blemishes, promote more even tone, and reduce fine lines. With the boost of anti-inflammatory and nourishing ingredients for optimal results.
