Frequently Asked Questions

Is it possible to over-exfoliate?
Do exfoliating scrubs cause dry skin?
Everyone’s skin type is unique and will have different reactions to exfoliating products.

VITAMINSCRUB™, our antioxidant-infused face scrub cleanser, is designed for all skin types: dry, sensitive, acne-prone, oily, and more. This gentle face exfoliator can be used daily, but for dry and sensitive skin, it is recommended to use VITAMINSCRUB™ two times a week to start. You know your skin better than anyone—if you notice excessive dryness, cut back on exfoliation and apply a non-comedogenic moisturizer like HYDRABERRY™ twice a day.
Why should I exfoliate my skin?
Our pores accumulate dead skin cells, sebum, and dirt, possibly sealing in pore-clogging ingredients from skincare or makeup. That’s why it’s important to use a gentle physical exfoliant or chemical exfoliant to refresh your skin. Our serum CLEARITY® aka "The Blackhead Dissolver," helps unclog pores and dissolve blackheads in minutes with Mandelic Acid, Vitamin C, and Turmeric, stimulating collagen production for brighter, smoother skin. It thrives alongside VITAMINSCRUB™️ because the exfoliating scrub opens pores and allows CLEARITY®️ to penetrate deeper into the skin. Our PREGAME™ face mask, a gentle exfoliator for sensitive skin, acts as an at-home facial, unclogging pores and brightening the skin with Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHAs), Turmeric, and Bamboo, for a glowing complexion in minutes. It enhances other skincare treatments, providing a helpful boost for quicker results. To zap whiteheads and bacteria on the spot, use our Sulfur SPOT&MASK, which can double as a preventative mask.
WHY DO PORE-CLOGGING INGREDIENTS IN SKINCARE MATTER?

To help paint a picture of why pore-clogging ingredients matter when it comes to acne, here’s the story of our founder + CEO, Danielle. 


Danielle suffered greatly from acne and went on Accutane three times to try and fix it. But her breakouts always came back. Why? Because of pore-clogging ingredients in skincare.

Eliminating pore-cloggers is one of the most straightforward and powerful ways to help acne-prone skin get clear and stay clear. 

But unfortunately, 90% of skincare, makeup, and haircare products contain pore-clogging ingredients, which can make it extremely difficult to avoid them. That’s why you will never find pore-cloggers in any of our formulas at CLEARSTEM.

Instead, here you’ll find potent clinical-grade skincare formulas made with powerful actives for your specific skin concerns—100% free of pore-cloggers, always.

Because you shouldn’t have to settle when it comes to getting the clear, radiant skin that you deserve. 

HOW DO I CREATE AN ACNE-SAFE ROUTINE AND LIFESTYLE?

The key to clear skin isn’t just what you put on your face—it’s a whole-body approach. Here’s where to start:

  • Swap out pore-clogging products – If it clogs, it’s gotta go! (We can help.)
  • Support your skin barrier – Hydrated, healthy skin is less prone to breakouts.
  • Go for internal + external support – Because acne starts on the inside.
  • Optimize your lifestyle – Diet, stress, and sleep all play a role.

CLEARSTEM is designed to tackle all the factors behind acne—from what’s happening on your skin to what’s happening inside your body. That’s why our formulas go beyond just treating symptoms—they help prevent breakouts at the source.
