But does spicy food like mala hotpot actually aggravate acne problems? We dug deeper and here's what we found out!

Contrary to popular belief, spicy food doesn't directly cause acne. However, when you enjoy a spicy meal like mala hotpot, the spices and ingredients in the food could be triggers, which brings out previous acne spots and aggravates existing acne problems.

Fret not, Eucerin ProACNE Solution SOS Serum has got you covered, helping to reduce acne and providing effective relief from the first application*.

In fact, Eucerin ProACNE Solution SOS Serum has received numerous recommendations from skincare experts

To be honest, I am impressed because you can literally see the difference.

According to these skincare experts, Eucerin ProACNE Solution SOS Serum is specifically designed for acne-prone skin, with three key functions: reducing, preventing, and soothing all acne-related concerns.

Formulated with lico A + decol + 2x Carnitine, Eucerin ProACNE Solution SOS Serum effectively reduces acne. Both skincare experts explained how these ingredients work together to help prevent acne from resurfacing as you enjoy your favourite spicy foods.

With its 3x acid compound of AHA, BHA, and PHA, the serum fights comedones (white and black heads) and helps prevent their reappearance. Panthenol in the formula also helps exfoliate, nourish, and soothe the skin without causing dryness.

Additionally, Eucerin ProACNE Solution SOS Serum is dermatologically proven to have excellent skin tolerability and high efficacy on acne-prone skin. Plus, it's non-comedogenic and does not clog pores.
