What it is

A complete acne-support starter kit designed to cleanse, gently exfoliate, treat and hydrate breakout-prone skin in a structured routine.

Ideal for those wanting to try the full A-Control range before committing to full sizes, or for resetting congested skin with a focused azelaic-based routine.

Why we love it
  • Starter kit designed specifically for acne-prone skin
  • Allows customers to try the full routine before purchasing full-size products
  • Structured 4-step system helps reset congested or breakout-prone skin
  • Combines BHA and 10% azelaic acid for layered blemish care
  • Lightweight textures suitable for oily and combination skin
  • Curated pick: A practical introduction to azelaic acid routines with balanced strength and daily-use design
Key Ingredients & Benefits
  • Salicylic Acid (BHA) – Helps unclog pores and reduce blackheads
  • Houttuynia Cordata Extract – Helps calm irritation and support blemish-prone skin
  • Azelaic Acid – Supports redness reduction and uneven tone
  • Glycolic & Lactic Acids – Help refine texture and gently resurface
  • Niacinamide – Supports oil balance and skin clarity
  • 10% Azelaic Acid – Targets visible redness, post-acne marks and uneven texture
  • Soothing ingredients – Help maintain comfort during treatment
  • Barrier-supporting ingredients – Help maintain hydration and skin balance
How To Use
  1. Step 2 – Cleanser: Apply to damp skin, massage gently and rinse thoroughly.
  2. Step 4 – Toner: Apply evenly over the face, avoiding the eye area.
  3. Step 6 – Serum: Apply a small amount to the full face or targeted areas and gently pat to absorb.
  4. Step 9 – Cream: Apply as the final moisturising step to seal in hydration.
  5. Use sunscreen during the daytime when using exfoliating acids.
  6. If new to acids, begin 3–4 times per week and increase gradually as tolerated.
Routine Placement

Step 1: Oil Cleanser → Step 2: Water-Based Cleanser (Heartleaf & BHA Cleanser – This Product) → Step 3: Exfoliator → Step 4: Toner (Azelaic Acid Toner – This Product) → Step 5: Essence → Step 6: Serum / Ampoule (10% Azelaic Acid Serum – This Product) → Step 7: Face Mask → Step 8: Eye Care → Step 9: Moisturiser (Azelaic Acid Cream – This Product) → Step 10: Suncream (AM)

Skin Type & Concerns

Skin Types: Oily, Combination, Acne-Prone, Sensitive (introduce gradually)

Concerns: Breakouts, clogged pores, redness, post-acne marks, uneven texture

Layering & Compatibility

Pairs well with: Hydrating and soothing products — toners, essences, and serums focused on humectants, panthenol, centella, snail, or green tea help maintain comfort while using exfoliating acids and azelaic acid. Light barrier-support products — simple moisturisers or ceramide-based creams can be layered after the routine if additional hydration is needed. Oil cleansers — suitable as a first cleanse before the Heartleaf & BHA Cleanser when removing makeup or sunscreen.

Avoid using: Strong exfoliating acids (high-strength AHA/BHA peels) in the same routine, as this may increase sensitivity. Retinoids in the same routine — better alternated to reduce risk of over-exfoliation and irritation. Very aggressive treatment routines layered all at once.

Layering tip: Use this kit as the primary active routine and keep the rest of the routine calming and supportive rather than stacking multiple strong actives together.

Pro Tip: Although formulated for acne-prone and sensitive skin, this kit contains multiple exfoliating acids and azelaic acid. If new to actives or if skin is dry/sensitive, introduce gradually (2–3 times per week) and increase frequency as tolerated to maintain barrier balance.
