# ma:nyo-focused skincare routine for acne-prone skin

Page: https://lovi.care/skincare/au/brands/ma-nyo/skincare-routine/for/acne-prone-skin

The Lovi Fit is the same in every country; only the stores and prices differ, and the ones here are for Australia.

A routine for acne-prone skin built around ma:nyo products, complemented by other brands where they fit better, for complete care.

Cleansers and toners with [salicylic acid](https://lovi.care/skincare/au/ingredients/salicylic-acid) help clear out pores and breakouts, while [serums](https://lovi.care/skincare/au/ingredients/serum) and moisturizers with [niacinamide](https://lovi.care/skincare/au/ingredients/niacinamide) and [vitamin C](https://lovi.care/skincare/au/ingredients/vitamin-c) help fade post-acne marks and calm skin.

The morning routine prepares the skin for the day: it cleans off the night, hydrates, and protects, with sunscreen as its last step. The evening routine removes sunscreen, makeup, and the day's oil, then treats the skin while it rests away from the sun. The weekly routine takes the place of the evening routine once a week to add deeper exfoliation and masks for acne-prone skin.

### Step 7 Moisturizer

Moisturizers with niacinamide, citrus junos fruit extract, and ceramides help control oil and restore the skin barrier for breakouts and blackheads, while formulas with hyaluronic acid, glycerin, and snail secretion filtrate provide hydration and help fade post-acne marks. This step is used every morning and evening, and once a week in place of the evening routine.
