What can contribute to spots and blemishes?
Spots and blemishes are commonly associated with clogged pores. This can happen when excess oil, dead skin cells, or everyday impurities build up on the skin’s surface, which may be linked to the appearance of breakouts and visible redness.
A range of factors can also influence how blemish-prone skin appears, including genetics, hormonal changes, stress, lifestyle, diet, and certain medications. Everyone’s skin is different, and these factors can affect people in different ways.
Types of blemishes
Blackheads
Whiteheads
Papules
Pustules
Nodules
Cysts
We know all about it.
There are several types of blemishes: whiteheads (clogged pores with no surface exposure), blackheads (open pores with oxidised oil), papules (small, red bumps), pustules (inflamed, pus-filled pimples), nodules (painful, deep lumps), and cysts (large, pus-filled, painful lumps). Each type varies in severity and treatment needs.
We know how it feels.
Living with ongoing skin concerns can affect how people feel about their appearance. Our founder has shared his own experience of navigating skin challenges, which is what led to the creation of 47 Skin.
That’s why we focus on supporting people on their individual skin journeys, with skincare designed to care for skin thoughtfully and realistically - without unrealistic promises.
We know how to stop it.
Looking after blemish-prone skin often involves maintaining a consistent skincare routine and avoiding picking at the skin, which can contribute to visible marks.
Silver Chitoderm® is formulated to help support calmer-looking skin and overall skin comfort. Alongside topical care, factors such as staying hydrated, managing stress, regular movement, and a balanced diet can also play a role in how skin looks and feels.
