MEDICATED SKIN WASH
Cepton Medicated Skin Wash is a daily treatment that contains the
antiseptic chlorhexidine gluconate which kills harmful bacteria on the
skin that cause spots and acne, whilst providing a protective shield
against bacterial infections for several hours after use to help
prevent
further outbreaks. It also removes oil and sebum, and helps spots to
dry more quickly.
Acne is a common condition where tiny holes (pores) on the surface of
the skin become blocked causing spots to develop, usually on the
face, back and chest. The spots can range from whiteheads and
blackheads to red, inflamed pus-filled spots and cysts.
DO NOT USE CEPTON MEDICATED SKIN WASH
IF
you are allergic
(hypersensitive) to chlorhexidine gluconate or any of the other
ingredients of Cepton Medi
