Acne Spot Treatment & Moisturizer
  • fryalator
    I was wondering if acne spot treatment should be put on pimples before or after moisturizer is applied. Does it matter?

    I've always been told to treat first and then moisturize.

    If recurring acne is a problem, treat the whole face (or the areas where you generally break out). Acne takes up to 2 weeks to form so spot treatment will do nothing for future acne. So - treat the whole face, then moisturize.

    If you insist on spot treating, I would also apply the treatment first, wait 5-10 minutes then moisturize.
