A spot cream that hits the spot.

Harsh on breakouts, kind on your skin. A hydrating spot cream that works differently to anything else on the shelf. Powered by patented technology, it targets the biofilm to break down what's causing breakouts at the source, not just the surface. Free from benzoyl peroxide and salicylic acid, it treats active pimples without the dryness, irritation or bleached pillowcases that come with traditional spot treatments. Dermatologically tested and suitable for even the most sensitive skin.

Benefits

  • Hydrating spot cream to help control breakouts and prevent new pimples
  • Features a hero formula with patented technology
  • Free from benzoyl peroxide and salicylic acid (aka no bleached towels or sheets)
  • Non drying, oil free and non-comedogenic ingredients
  • Visibly reduces redness and inflammation around breakouts

How to use

After cleansing, apply the product as a spot cream to active pimples and gently rub into the skin until absorbed. Leave for 5 minutes to soak into the skin before applying serums and moisturisers over the top. Maximum once daily, preferably at night.

Caution: Avoid contact with eyes. Keep out of reach of children. Use in children under 12 years is not recommended. Patch test this product on a small area of skin before applying it to a large area. If irritation develops, discontinue use. If symptoms persist, talk to your health professional. For external use only.

Will truly be ride or die for the rest of my life

All your products have done miracles for my hormonal acne. I struggled for more than a year trying to fix it but nothing worked until I came across The Breakout Hack. CANNOT THANK YOU ENOUGH!

Beat the breakout bundle

I enjoyed using this acne bundle. I noticed a huge change in my skin; the cluster of blemishes I used to have has disappeared. I barely get any breakouts anymore, and any that I do get never last long.

The Breakout Hack bundle review

On first appearance, it's very eye-catching with the colours. Very modern labelling and packaging. I found all products to be very gentle on my skin, with a light scent nothing unpleasant. Smells like a moisturiser. The pimple patches were quite straight forward and I found them to work well at drawing out what needs to come out.

The Breakout Hack's spot cleanser

The spot cleanser works a dream. It removes the dirt and grim and makeup off wonderfully. Leaves the skin feeling nice and soft afterwards without burning your eyes or face. Would definitely buy and recommend this product.

how it started

The Breakout Hack set out on a mission to understand, empathise with, and solve their customers' problems. And whilst the treatment of breakouts may appear to be a clinical problem to solve, co-founder Rachael understood that the challenges surrounding breakouts went way below the surface of her customer's skin.

The Breakout Hack's mission is a deeply personal one to Rachael, having suffered her own 13 year long battle with breakouts. Rachael describes The Breakout Hack as being the ultimate confidant for the breakout-prone customer, where they ensure a new scientific approach translates into products that fulfil the core needs and wants of their customer group.

    Fav Fav Fav

    This spot cream is honestly one of my favourites! It works really well on breakouts and helps calm them down quickly. I noticed my spots looked less red and irritated after using it, and it helped them clear up faster. The formula is easy to apply, doesn’t feel heavy, and works well with the rest of my skincare routine. Definitely a go-to product whenever I feel a breakout coming on! Best of all it doesnt affect my sensitive skin!!!

    Actually works!

    I was a little sceptical about trying this, as I’ve had spot creams before and they don’t work.

    But I’m super happy to say it works and works bloody well

    Highly recommend and will be buying again

FAQ'S

Still have questions?

Check out our most commonly asked questions! If you can't find the answer you are looking for, just hit up one of our friendly customer care team members! They love a chat.

Is the spot cream a moisturiser?

No, this product is not a moisturiser, but rather a spot cream for the skin. We recommend keeping up a regular moisturiser as part of your daily routine alongside this product. Moisturisers should be applied over the top of the spot cream (after the spot cream has soaked into the skin).

Will the spot cream dry out my skin?

No, the spot cream should not dry out your skin. The Isopropyl Alcohol used in this product, which can be considered as a drying ingredient is balanced very specifically with other ingredients in this formula to ensure it does not strip or dry the skin.

Are the products vegan and cruelty free?

YES, absolutely! We love our floofy friends… NOT TESTED ON ANIMALS and no animal products used!

How quickly will I see results?

The right routine depends on your skin type and the kind of breakouts you’re dealing with. Not sure which products are best for you? Our customer service team is here to help - just reach out at hello@thebreakouthack.co.uk and we’ll guide you to your perfect routine
