Professional education
June is Acne Awareness Month, a timely prompt to revisit one of the most common concerns discussed in clinic: skin that appears breakout-prone, congested or oily.
For these clients, clear guidance and a routine that feels easy to follow can make a meaningful difference. Environ® Focus Care Clarity+ is designed to support the appearance of congestion, excess oil and visible breakouts as part of a personalised professional skincare routine.
For clients experiencing visible oiliness and breakouts, a trained skin care professional may recommend targeted Focus Care Clarity+ products alongside an appropriate Environ® vitamin A moisturiser, selected according to the individual client’s skin and routine needs.
A considered approach to breakout-prone skin
For many skin concerns, Environ® routines begin with the Vitamin STEP-UP SYSTEM® before targeted Focus Care products are introduced where appropriate.
When visible congestion, excess oil and breakouts are a key concern, a professional may recommend a more targeted approach from the beginning. This can include Focus Care Clarity+ products alongside an appropriate Skin EssentiA® vitamin A moisturiser as part of a personalised daily routine.
The right product combination, frequency of use and vitamin A progression should always be guided by a trained skin care professional.
The Focus Care Clarity+ protocol
Focus Care Clarity+ follows a simple three-phase approach designed to support skin that appears blemish-prone, congested or oily.
Phase 1: Clean
Focus: Cleanse thoroughly, help reduce excess surface oil and prepare the skin for the next steps in the routine.
Focus Care Clarity+ Sebu-Wash Gel Cleanser
A mattifying foaming cleanser formulated to help wash away dirt and excess surface oil, leaving the skin feeling refreshed and clean.
Focus Care Clarity+ Sebu-Tone Clarifier
A clarifying toner formulated to help remove the build-up of dead skin cells and minimise the appearance of oily shine, leaving skin looking smoother and more refined.
Phase 2: Control
Focus: Support the appearance of visible breakouts, refine the look of skin texture and maintain a balanced-looking complexion.
Focus Care Clarity+ Sebu-Lac Lotion + Focus Care Clarity+ Sebu-ACE Oil
These products may be mixed together in equal quantities and applied after cleansing, as directed by a trained skin care professional. Used together, they can help support smoother-looking, more balanced skin.
Focus Care Clarity+ Sebu-Spot Blemish Gel
A targeted blemish gel designed to help improve the appearance of visible spots and congestion.
Phase 3: Clear
Focus: Add an exfoliating treatment step to support skin that appears visibly congested or breakout-prone.
Focus Care Clarity+ Sebu-Clear Masque
An exfoliating acid masque designed to help clear the appearance of existing breakouts, leaving skin looking visibly clearer and healthier.
Use frequency should be guided by a trained skin care professional. The masque is generally used in the evening after cleansing and before the next steps in the recommended routine.
Why this protocol matters
Breakout-prone skin can be influenced by excess oil, congestion, the build-up of dead skin cells and a range of lifestyle or environmental factors. A clear, professionally guided routine can help clients understand how each step fits together and what consistency may look like at home.
When reviewing a client with visible congestion, breakouts or excess oil, this can be a useful time to explain how Environ® Focus Care Clarity+ may fit into a personalised routine. Rather than relying on a one-size-fits-all approach, the product selection and progression should reflect the client’s individual skin needs, existing routine and professional guidance.
