TULA Skin Care Breakout Star is a daily moisturizer formulated to address mild breakouts while supporting skin barrier function.

Salicylic acid gently exfoliates inside pores, while azelaic acid works to reduce redness and discoloration left by past breakouts.

a form of vitamin B3, assists in evening skin tone and calming irritation. The inclusion of prebiotics supports a balanced skin microbiome, which can be beneficial for acne-prone skin. Watermelon extract provides hydration and antioxidants without adding oiliness. The texture is lightweight and non-greasy, making it suitable for daytime wear under sunscreen or makeup. This moisturizer can be used as part of a morning or evening routine on clean skin, followed by sunscreen during the day. It is intended for those with combination, oily, or occasionally blemish-prone skin who want a single product that both hydrates and treats mild acne. The formula is free of parabens, sulfates, and phthalates. It does not contain artificial fragrances that might irritate sensitive skin. While the active ingredients target breakouts and post-acne marks, consistent use over several weeks is typically needed to see visible improvement. The product does not claim to be a rapid solution for severe or cystic acne.

Instead, it is designed for regular maintenance of skin that experiences occasional clogged pores, small whiteheads, or light congestion. As with any skincare product containing active acids, a patch test before full application is advisable. This moisturizer comes in a standard squeeze tube with a flip cap for controlled dispensing.
