Daily advices
It isn’t always easy living with spots. It can feel like everyone is looking and that you want to hide. To make sure your spots don’t stop you, our laboratories have developed the Sébium range for acne-prone skin, including Sébium Kerato+ – which reduces lesions by 50%* and has a big impact on quality of life.
Acne can make you feel different and that you’re the only one with unwanted spots and pimples. But you aren’t! Remember that acne is a common skin condition that affects over 80% of adolescents – and many adults too. There’s absolutely no reason for your spots to get the way and stop you from being yourself and doing the things you love. Especially when you’re equipped with an adapted anti-acne skincare routine and products.
However, with such a wide range of prescription and over-the-counter acne treatments, it’s often hard to know where to start. Many lack efficacy, others are based on powerful keratolytics that irritate your skin – and mean you stop before the treatment has time to deliver results.
We’re convinced that it all begins by getting your skincare routine sorted. More than any other type of skin, acne-prone skin requires extra care and attention. This means sticking to a routine twice a day to prevent bacteria from building up.
The initial cleansing stage is essential – so make sure you don’t skip it. Ideally, the cleanser needs to be “active” to start targeting your spots, even before you apply the acne cream or gel.

Let’s take a closer look at Sébium Kerato+ and how it works to get rid of spots, including those stubborn blackheads.
This anti-blemish concentrate for mild to moderate acne has a keratolytic action based on an ecobiological approach – this means a physiological pH for maximum tolerance and no stinging or dryness. The gel-cream’s light hydrating texture adds extra comfort.
Salicylic acid (1.8%) gently exfoliates the outer layer of the skin, while Malic acid ester reaches the pilosebaceous canal to act more deeply – while also keeping the skin moisturised.
A combination of antioxidant propyl gallate and mannitol prevent sebum oxidation and pores from clogging – leading to fewer imperfections and marks.
No to red marks
When your spots go away, they often leave red marks – which can become permanent when exposed to the sun. By reducing the number and appearance of lesions, Sébium Kerato+ helps avoid lasting hyperpigmentation.
Since being launched, Sébium Kerato+ has been used by consumers around the world who have seen its positive impact on acne-prone skin for themselves – reducing lesions without irritation. The latest clinical testing across 9 countries and all skin phototypes revealed:
