Product overview

Clarol ZnO Clear is a targeted overnight spot treatment built around one of skincare's simplest and most trusted minerals, zinc oxide. Dabbed directly onto emerging and active blemishes before bed, it helps protect visible blemishes, absorb excess surface oil and keep the surrounding skin comfortable while you sleep.

Zinc oxide has long been used in skincare for its protective and skin-soothing properties. It forms a light protective layer over the skin and helps absorb excess surface oil, making it well suited to blemish-prone skin. As consultant dermatologist Dr Eva Melegh puts it: "When applied topically, zinc oxide is very beneficial for acne-prone skin."

The zinc is carried in plant-derived squalane, a moisturising ingredient that is very similar to the skin's own lipids, helping keep skin soft and comfortable without clogging pores or leaving a greasy finish. The whole formula contains just six ingredients, is non-comedogenic and 100% vegan, making it ideal for sensitive, blemish-prone skin that reacts to harsher spot treatments.

Apply a small amount directly onto visible blemishes in the evening. A thin white layer is normal and forms part of the product's protective action. Most people notice visible improvements with consistent use, and 97% of verified reviewers rate it 4 or 5 stars.

Use it as the final evening step of the Clarol routine, after cleansing and your treatment products. Vegan, cruelty-free, dermatologically tested and made in Britain.

Before After

01.

Birch Water Toner

Start with Clarol Birch Water Toner. Using a clean cotton pad, gently sweep it over the whole face. This step helps refine the look of open pores and balance oily, spot-prone skin.

02.

Silver Serum

Before any makeup, apply Clarol Silver Serum to clean, dry skin with clean, dry fingers. Its purifying MicroSilver works in a smarter, gentler way than harsh acne products, helping to rebalance the skin and support its natural defences against spots. It stays active for around eight hours, so one morning application works through the day and makes an ideal base under makeup. Let it absorb first.

03.

Primer

Finish with the Nordic Birch & Japanese Algae Mattifying Primer to blur the appearance of pores, control shine and create a smooth base for makeup, or wear it alone for a naturally matte finish.

+ Adjust to your skin

If your skin feels very oily, use the Silver & Birch Exfoliating Wash morning and evening, and apply Sebopure twice daily, after Silver Serum. If your skin feels dry, reduce exfoliation to every other day. And try not to over-wash with water and soap when it is not needed, as this can strip the skin's natural oils and increase sensitivity.

01.

Exfoliating Wash

Begin with Clarol Silver & Birch Exfoliating Wash to gently cleanse away impurities and dead skin cells from the surface, helping to keep pores clear and prevent the build-up that leads to breakouts.

02.

Birch Water Toner

Follow with Clarol Birch Water Toner, sweeping it over the whole face with a clean cotton pad to refine the look of pores and balance oily, spot-prone skin.

03.

Sebopure

After cleansing and toning, apply Clarol Sebopure to help keep sebum balanced and prevent pore blockages from forming overnight. Healthy sebum is part of comfortable, balanced skin, so this step supports rather than strips.

04.

ZnO Clear

For active spots, dab a small amount of ZnO Clear directly onto blemishes as a targeted overnight treatment.
