Olim Naturals Anti-Acne Serum – Salicylic Acid Pore Care for Breakouts & Blackheads

Acne in Pakistan isn’t just “dirty skin”—it’s clogged pores + climate

If you live in Pakistan, you already know the struggle: humidity, sweat, dust, pollution, and sunscreen layering can quickly clog pores. Even after washing your face, congestion stays underneath—showing up as blackheads, whiteheads, rough bumps, and repeated breakouts.

Olim Naturals created this Anti-Acne Serum to target the real root: pore congestion. It uses salicylic acid (BHA)—an oil-soluble exfoliant that works inside pores—supported by Sodium PCA and Hyaluronic Acid to keep skin feeling comfortable and hydrated while you clear what’s stuck.

If you’re searching for the best anti-acne serum in Pakistan, or an anti-acne serum for blackheads and clogged pores, this is a simple, focused formula made for consistent, everyday routines.

Why This Outperforms Other Anti-Acne Serums 

Many acne serums either strip the skin (causing rebound oiliness and irritation) or contain too many extras that can sensitize acne-prone skin.

This formula stays focused and balanced:

• BHA pore-clearing + hydration support for better tolerance

• Simple synergy that fits real routines

• Light texture that works in heat and humidity

• Long-term results come from consistency—and this formula is designed for that

How to Use 

PM preferred.

1. Cleanse and pat skin dry.

3. Follow with a moisturizer.

4. Start 2–3 nights per week, then increase if comfortable.

FAQ

Is this suitable for sensitive skin?

It can be, but patch test first. Start once or twice weekly and moisturize after. Reduce frequency if irritation occurs.

Can I use this with other actives?

Yes, but don’t stack strong actives on the same night when starting. Alternate nights with retinoids or benzoyl peroxide.

When will I see results?

Some people notice smoother-feeling skin with consistent use. Visible changes depend on routine consistency, skin type, and sunscreen use.

Is this suitable for Pakistani climate?

Yes. It’s designed for acne triggered by humidity, sweat, and pollution—common in Pakistan.

Should I use it all over my face or just on pimples?

This type of serum works best on areas that get clogged (like the T-zone). You can use it all over if your skin tolerates it.
