Product Information

Full details

The Dr. Althea 15% Calamine Spot Powder is a specialized blemish treatment designed for individuals dealing with localized breakouts, enlarged pores, and redness who seek a non-irritating yet effective solution. Its primary benefit lies in its dual-action formula that clears clogged pores while simultaneously soothing inflammation with botanical extracts, though users should note that the product must be left undisturbed to maintain its distinct layered texture for proper application.

FAQs

Do I need to shake the bottle before use?

No, you should never shake the bottle. The separation of the liquid and powder is intentional.

Can I wear this during the day?

While you can, the powder leaves a visible pinkish residue on the skin, so it is recommended primarily for overnight use.

Is this safe for sensitive skin?

Yes, the inclusion of Ceramide NP and Panthenol helps mitigate the drying effects of Salicylic Acid, making it suitable for most sensitive skin types.

How often can I use this?

It is intended for daily use on targeted areas during your nighttime routine.

What should I do if I get it on my clothes or bedding?

The calamine powder can transfer, so allow the product to dry completely on your face before letting your skin touch pillowcases or fabrics.

Troubleshooting

The product is fully mixed and looks like cloudy water.

Place the bottle on a flat, stable surface and let it stand undisturbed for several hours until the powder fully settles at the bottom again.

Silicone tip is clogged.

Gently wipe the tip with a dry tissue or rinse the tip under warm water and let it air dry completely before reinserting it into the bottle.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Targets blemishes without over-drying the surrounding skin
  • Hygienic application through the silicone tip
  • Reduces visible redness overnight
  • Non-comedogenic ingredients suitable for acne-prone skin
  • Combines treatment with barrier-strengthening ceramides

Cons

  • Must be used carefully to avoid mixing the settled powder
  • Leaves a visible residue, making it best for overnight use
  • Not intended for application over the entire face
  • Requires rinse-off in the morning

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure optimal performance, keep the bottle upright on a flat surface in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. This helps the calamine powder settle correctly at the bottom, which is required for each application.

  • Compatibility: This product is compatible with most skin types, including sensitive skin, thanks to the inclusion of soothing panthenol and ceramides.
  • Routine Placement: Use this as the final step in your evening routine after moisturizing.
  • Care: Wipe the silicone tip with a clean tissue after every use to maintain sanitation and prevent residue buildup on the applicator.
