Dr. Brandt Skincare Pore Purifying Cleanser 4.2 fl oz — Non‑Drying Salicylic Gel for Oily & Combination Skin

Dr. Brandt Pores No More is a non-drying gel cleanser that gently lifts makeup, oil, and debris while helping reduce the visible size of pores.

This pore-targeted cleansing gel was developed by Dr. Brandt Skincare to address common concerns around enlarged or congested pores without stripping skin. The formula blends exfoliating salicylic acid with soothing white willow bark to loosen trapped dead skin and dissolve excess sebum, making it a fit for combination and oily skin types. Its lathering gel texture rinses clean, leaving a balanced, clarified surface ideal for follow-up treatments like serums or moisturizers.

How does this cleanser help reduce the look of pores?

It combines chemical exfoliation with oil-dissolving action to clear the channels that make pores appear larger. Rather than physically forcing pores closed, it removes the buildup around and inside them, creating a smoother skin appearance over time.

• Salicylic acid penetrates to loosen dead skin and clear pore blockages.
• Oil-soluble ingredients dissolve excess sebum and residue from makeup.
• Regular use reduces surface congestion that accentuates pore diameter.

Will this product dry out my skin?

The gel is formulated to cleanse without harsh stripping, suitable for oily and combination skin while being mindful of moisture. White willow bark adds soothing support so the skin feels clean yet not tight after rinsing.

• Non-drying gel base designed for balanced cleansing.
• White willow bark helps soothe and support surface hydration.
• Follow with a lightweight moisturizer if your skin needs extra hydration.

When and how should I use it in my routine?

Use morning and evening as the first step in your skincare routine to remove impurities and prepare skin for treatments. Massage into damp skin to create a rich lather, then rinse thoroughly with warm water.

• Apply to damp face, massage gently for 30–60 seconds.
• Rinse with warm water and pat skin dry; avoid harsh scrubbing.
• Use daily; follow with serum and moisturizer for best results.

What are the key actives and what do they do?

The formula centers on salicylic acid for targeted exfoliation and white willow bark for soothing and cell support. These actives work together to clear buildup and calm the skin surface without aggressive abrasion.

• Salicylic acid: oil-soluble BHA that helps clear pores and exfoliate.
• White willow bark: botanical source of salicylates that soothes and supports skin renewal.
• Gel carrier: creates a gentle, rinse-off lather that removes impurities.

Who is this for: Dr. Brandt Pores No More Pore Purifying Cleanser is designed for people with combination to oily skin, those who notice visible pore congestion, and anyone seeking a daily, non-drying cleanser to prep skin for treatments. It’s suitable as the cleansing step in an acne-prone or shine-prone regimen but can also be used by anyone wanting clearer-looking skin texture. If your skin is very dry or clinically sensitive, consider patch testing or alternating use with a gentler, hydrating cleanser.
