As an anti-imperfections treatment throughout the year, Sébium Gel moussant actif has all the benefits of active cleansing for skin. It provides care for skin the moment you cleanse, thanks to keratolytic active ingredients that exfoliate the depths of the skin and its surface, and always gently.
Smooth skin is a dream when your skin is oily and you have problems with blackheads, spots or uneven skin tone. Laboratoire BIODERMA are recognised experts in skin hygiene, the inventors of micellar water 25 years ago, and they still lead with products dedicated to different skin types. Now they are going further still, with the concept of active cleansing.
More than a cleanser, Sébium Gel moussant actif also provides specific care thanks to AHA and BHA – which is why it’s active cleansing.
Sébium Gel moussant actif’s formula both respects acne-prone skin and is effective in treating spots in order to meet skin’s most specific needs, from puberty to adulthood. Because without cleansing, there is nothing! With the development of Sébium Gel moussant active, BIODERMA has innovated with a formula that is both cleansing and caring.
At Bioderma, our dermatological hygiene is designed to take care of and preserve skin health, starting at the moment of cleansing. With acne, it has been proven that when an ‘adapted cleanser’ and a moisturiser are both used, patients respect their treatment so that spots finally disappear. Cleansing skin is therefore the first and essential step in getting rid of spots. This is fundamental when we know that half of all acne patients doesn’t properly follow their treatment.
A Laboratoire BIODERMA innovation, Sébium Gel moussant actif respects the principles behind NAOS’ ecobiology approach, which considers skin as an ecosystem.
NAOS’s three ecobiological criteria for active cleansing of oily and acne-prone skin are:
The idea behind active cleansing is to launch skin care while cleansing, to prevent and reduce spots more actively. New Sébium Gel moussant actif has been formulated for optimal effectiveness, thanks to a unique combination of keratolytic active ingredients.
Sébium Gel moussant actif ensures perfect balance between efficacy and tolerance.
Acne-prone skin has a tendency to thicken, building up dead cells, sebum and other elements that collect on the skin’s surface and block pores. As a purifying cleanser, Sébium Gel moussant actif contains a combination of AHA (alphahydroxy acid) and BHA (betahydroxy acid), known for their complementary keratylotic action, one on the surface, the other deep down. Keratolytic action refers to the ability to smooth skin texture by stimulating cell renewal.
Thanks to the AHA-BHA pair, traditionally used by doctors for peelings, Sébium Gel moussant actif produces great results on acne-prone skin.
Used as an occasional anti-imperfections treatment, Sébium Gel moussant actif activates cellular renewal. It therefore contributes to preventing spots from forming and also helps to get rid of spots already there.
Glycolic acid needs a more acidic environment to be effective. Sébium Gel moussant actif has therefore been formulated with a slightly acidic pH to increase the AHA complex’s keratolytic efficacy on oily and acne-prone skin.
Cleansing without stripping is essential for oily and acne-prone skin. Sébium Gel moussant actif meets the challenge thanks to its gentle washing base that respects oily and acne-prone skin’s balance.
"Peeling effect" brings to mind skin drying out and being irritated. There is no risk of that with Sébium Gel moussant actif: each keratolytic active ingredient is at its optimal concentration, enough to unclog pores and produce results with blackheads and spots. Compared to mechanical scrubs with beads, the acidic exfoliation with keratolytic ingredients doesn’t irritate skin due to rubbing2. You can always complement Sébium Gel moussant actif with an adapted cream.

Clogged pores, blackheads, pimples…? Sébium Gel moussant actif must be day and night until your imperfections disappear. It can be used in association with your cream and other skincare, according to your needs.
Don’t hesitate to adapt how often you use Sébium gel moussant actif, based on your skin’s sensitivity. In the effect is too intense for your skin, use it every other day.
Sébium Gel moussant actif can also be used as a single shower gel for men with oily and acne-prone skin, who don’t want to use separate products for cleansing and for a skin cream.
If your skin is oily or acne-prone, with occasional or stubborn spots, the Sébium range can help you diminish the number of spots and help your skin find balance.
