# MARY & MAY-focused skincare routine for acne-prone skin

Page: https://lovi.care/skincare/fr/brands/mary-and-may/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 France.

A routine for acne-prone skin built around MARY & MAY products, complemented by other brands where they fit better, for complete care.

Cleansers, toners, and masks with salicylic, glycolic, and [lactic acid](https://lovi.care/skincare/fr/ingredients/lactic-acid) clear out pores and help smooth blackheads and breakouts. [Serums](https://lovi.care/skincare/fr/ingredients/serum) and moisturizers with [niacinamide](https://lovi.care/skincare/fr/ingredients/niacinamide), [vitamin C](https://lovi.care/skincare/fr/ingredients/vitamin-c), and [zinc](https://lovi.care/skincare/fr/ingredients/zinc) [PCA](https://lovi.care/skincare/fr/ingredients/pca) help fade post-acne marks and calm the 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 and stays away from the sun. The weekly routine takes the place of the evening routine once a week and adds the deeper steps to target breakouts, blackheads, and post-acne marks.

### Step 7 Moisturizer

Moisturizers with yuja extract, niacinamide, glutathione, and arbutin help brighten dark spots and manage breakouts for acne-prone skin, while formulas with ceramides, hyaluronic acid, and glycerin support hydration and repair. These products are used every morning and every evening, and once a week in place of the evening routine.
