Glucy Foaming Face Wash 150 ml

Glucy Foaming Face Wash 150 Ml is a topical combination of Azelaic Acid and Glycolic Acid. It is used to treat acne, fade dark spots left behind after breakouts (post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation), and improve uneven skin texture. It works by gently exfoliating the skin surface, clearing pores of blemish-causing bacteria, and reducing the overproduction of skin pigment. Glucy Foaming Face Wash 150 Ml may also be used for purposes not listed in this medication guide.

Glucy Foaming Face Wash 150 Ml (Azelaic Acid + Glycolic Acid) is a topical skin treatment used for acne, dark spots left after acne, and uneven or rough skin texture. It is usually used as part of a dermatologist-guided treatment plan.

Azelaic acid helps treat acne by reducing acne-causing bacteria and calming inflammation in the skin. It also helps normalise how skin cells are shed inside pores, which can reduce clogged pores and breakouts. Over time, it may also help fade dark spots caused by acne.

Glycolic acid helps gently remove dead skin cells from the surface of the skin. This helps the skin renew itself and can improve smoothness, brightness, and uneven texture. It may also help reduce clogged pores over time.

These ingredients work in complementary ways. Azelaic acid helps control bacteria, inflammation, and pigmentation, while glycolic acid supports exfoliation and skin renewal. This combination may help improve acne, post-acne marks, and overall skin texture with regular use.

Some people may notice mild skin reactions when starting treatment, such as slight redness, dryness, peeling, or stinging. These effects are usually temporary. Glycolic acid may also make the skin more sensitive to sunlight, so using sunscreen and sun protection is generally recommended during treatment.

Glucy Foaming Face Wash 150 Ml (Azelaic Acid + Glycolic Acid) should be used exactly as directed by a healthcare professional.

• Apply a thin layer to clean, dry skin on the affected areas

• Use once or twice daily, or as prescribed by your doctor

• Avoid application on broken, irritated, or severely inflamed skin unless advised by a clinician

• Wash your hands before and after application

• Avoid contact with eyes, lips, and mucous membranes

• Do not apply immediately after harsh scrubbing or other strong exfoliating treatments

• Use sunscreen during the day, as glycolic acid may increase sensitivity to sunlight

• Do not exceed the recommended frequency or duration of use

Glucy Foaming Face Wash 150 Ml (Azelaic Acid + Glycolic Acid) works through complementary actions on the skin that target acne, pigmentation, and uneven texture.

• Azelaic acid acts by reducing the growth of acne-causing bacteria, decreasing inflammation, and normalising abnormal keratin production within the hair follicles. This helps prevent pore blockage and reduces the formation of new acne lesions. It also has an inhibitory effect on melanin production, which contributes to gradual improvement in post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.

• Glycolic acid, an alpha-hydroxy acid, works by loosening the bonds between dead skin cells in the outermost layer of the skin. This promotes exfoliation and increases epidermal cell turnover, helping to clear clogged pores and improve skin smoothness and radiance.

Together, these actions help reduce active breakouts, fade dark spots, and improve overall skin texture through both anti-inflammatory and exfoliating effects.

• Start Slow: If you have sensitive skin, use the product every other day for the first 1–2 weeks to help your skin build tolerance.

• Sunscreen is Non-Negotiable: Glycolic acid removes the outermost layer of dead skin cells, making your skin significantly more vulnerable to UV damage. Apply a broad-spectrum SPF 30+ every morning.

• Moisturise Daily: Apply a non-comedogenic moisturiser over the medication to manage dryness and flaking.

• Use Vitamin C in the Morning: If you use a Vitamin C serum, apply it in the morning and Glucy Foaming Face Wash 150 Ml in the evening to avoid overloading the skin with multiple acids at once.

Store at room temperature, away from direct heat and light. Keep the cap tightly closed when not in use. Keep out of reach of children and pets.

There are no known significant drug-food interactions with topical Glucy Foaming Face Wash 150 Ml. However, spicy foods, hot drinks, and alcohol may worsen skin flushing in those being treated for rosacea. Maintaining a diet rich in antioxidants can also support overall skin health during treatment.

• Retinoids (Caution): Using Tretinoin or Adapalene alongside Glucy Foaming Face Wash 150 Ml can significantly increase the risk of severe irritation and dryness.

• Benzoyl Peroxide / Salicylic Acid (Caution): Combining multiple active acne treatments can lead to excessive dryness and chemical burns.

• Astringents / Toners (Mild): Alcohol-based toners may increase stinging when used alongside this medication.

Medicine used on the skin is not likely to be significantly affected by other drugs you take by mouth. Tell your doctor about all medicines you use, including prescription and over-the-counter medicines, vitamins, and herbal products.

• Eczema or Atopic Dermatitis (Caution): People with a compromised skin barrier may find the acid combination too irritating. Consult your doctor before use.

• Vitiligo (Caution): Because Azelaic Acid affects pigment cells, use with caution in those with depigmentation disorders.

• Severe Sunburn (Avoid): Do not apply to skin that is already sun-damaged, broken, or actively inflamed.

Applying too much product or using it too frequently will likely cause severe redness, burning, and peeling. If this occurs, stop use immediately and apply a gentle, fragrance-free moisturiser until the skin recovers. If this product is accidentally swallowed, contact your doctor immediately.

Consistency is key to treating acne and hyperpigmentation. If you miss a dose, simply resume your normal routine at the next scheduled time. Do not try to "catch up" by applying a thicker layer the next day.
