| Verdict | BioNike's Acteen line is the brand's acne-focused range, and the Purifying Cleansing Gel is the foundation step. Nordihydroguaiaretic Acid (NDGA, from creosote bush) is the headline anti-sebum active, oleanolic acid (from olive leaves) reinforces, and juniper + mint oils provide antimicrobial support. Jojoba esters keep the cleanser from over-stripping. €20 for a clinical-grade Italian acne cleanser. | Veralab's cult cleanser. Spumone is a feather-light foaming mousse stacked with eight fruit extracts — açai, noni, pomegranate, mangosteen, coffee, green tea, goji — plus a gentle glutamate/glycinate surfactant base that won't strip. €14 for 100ml is the kind of price that makes Italian women buy three at a time. |
