Whether it’s recently developed adult acne or your teenager dealing with spots and oiliness, acne has the ability to hold us back in life.



A sensitive topic which isn’t generally discussed at the dinner table, acne is today prevalent amongst people of all ages. By recognising that everyone’s skin has a unique skin mood and that not everyone responds to the same products and treatments, Juliette Armand’s range of personalised skincare offers tailor-made solutions and a wide variety of offerings to treat all skin moods; what’s more, we offer skin mood analysis at selected salons and spas.

How acne occurs

Acne.org explains that our bodies are covered by thousands of microscopic hair follicles (pores) and that acne occurs when these follicles overproduce cells and become blocked. During this process the sebum (oil) which normally drains to the surface gets trapped and bacteria begins to grow.

Types of acne

Acne is generally classed as either inflammatory or non-inflammatory. Criteria used to diagnose your acne type would include; the amount of breakout activity, the degree of inflammation, hydration levels, sebum (oil) levels and the areas of the body affected. Thereafter, acne is classified from Grade I – IV and each grade requires a different type of treatment and care.

Juliette Armand’s acne range tackles various forms of acne with an offering to suit each skincare regime.
