Product Info

Concealer for spots and blackheads

The Eucerin DERMOPURE Cover Stick is an concealer with Salicylic Acid proven to both reduce and cover pimples and blackheads. It smoothly covers blemishes and evens out skin while reducing pimples and unblocking clogged pores. The concealer can be used alongside medical acne treatment and is also safe for use during pregnancy.

Clinical and dermatological studies

Clinical and dermatological studies prove very good tolerability and efficacy on blemish-prone skin.

Main findings

In a dermatological study, a sample of 25 men and women with acne (aged between 13 and 43) tested the effectiveness of Eucerin DERMOPURE Cover Stick for three weeks and confirmed a significant reduction in pimples.

Properties

non-comedogenic
oil-free
fragrance-free

How to use

Instructions

Cover the affected area with a thin layer one to three times a day as required. Follow with make-up as appropriate.
Do not apply to your lips or to the skin under your eyes.
Avoid contact with eyes.

Recommendations for your daily skincare routine

Cleanse and tone

Cleanse skin in the morning and evening:

am: to remove the sebum and dead skin cells that have accumulated overnight
pm: to remove make-up and free skin from the day’s dirt

Use gentle cleansing products such as Eucerin DERMOPURE Cleansing Gel with lukewarm water and follow with an appropriate toner. You may also benefit from using a scrub once a week to unclog pores and refine skin texture.

We do not recommend using an alcohol-based toner and the scrub alongside acne medication as it can make skin more sensitive. If you like the refreshing feel of a toner, try the alcohol-free Eucerin DERMOPURE Micellar Water instead.

Care

The care product you use depends on the severity of your acne and on the type of treatment you are undergoing.

If you are using medical treatment for acne, Eucerin DERMOPURE Adjunctive Soothing Cream helps to alleviate some of the symptoms such as intense dryness. It should be applied five minutes after your medication so the treatment can absorb fully.

If you have mild to moderate acne, but are not undergoing medical acne treatment, use a soothing and mattifying moisturiser such as Eucerin DERMOPURE Mattifying Fluid in the morning and evening.

For clearer and smoother-looking skin over time, you may also like to incorporate our skin renewal treatment into your routine. It is suitable for all blemish-prone skin that is not undergoing medical acne treatment and should be used once a day only − ideally in the evening. You can use it before the mattifying fluid or on its own.

Sun protection

Sun protection is an important step in your morning routine. Blemishes can cause pigmentation issues if over-exposed to the sun, and acne medications can make blemish-prone skin even more sensitive to UV rays. Eucerin Sun Gel-Creme Oil Control Dry Touch SPF30 and SPF50+ offers the levels of protection that your skin needs and should be applied before your cover-up and make-up. If you’re applying sun protection after a topical acne treatment wait five minutes to allow the treatment to fully absorb.

Concealer and make-up

Cover blemishes and even out skin tone with foundation and/or a concealer. Choose products that are non-comedogenic (i.e. that will not block pores) and, ideally, ones that contain ingredients that work to improve the condition of blemish-prone skin. Be sure to remove all make-up before you go to bed.

Salicylic Acid

Salicylic Acid is a particularly effective ingredient that fights the causes of blemish-prone skin: blocked pores and bacterial growth. For this reason it is a key ingredient in several of the Eucerin DERMOPURE formulas.

Salicylic Acid is a Beta Hydroxy Acid which acts keratolytically (meaning it removes dead skin cells and softens skin to help prevent blocked pores) and comedolytically (which means it opens up clogged pores). Overall, it improves the appearance of the skin: it reduces blemishes and prevents the build-up of new blemishes.

Coverage pigments

The product contains colour pigments that have been selected because they are particularly compatible with skin and good at covering blemishes.
