Our Thalasso Restore Skin Barrier Cream wasn’t created to treat acne. That wasn’t our intention, but customers with persistent, often severe breakouts began telling us they were seeing real results. The secret? Bioactive seaweed extracts that support the skin barrier, calm inflammation, and work with your body, not against it.
Acne affects over 80% of Canadian teens and continues into adulthood for 20–30% of Canadians aged 20–40 (Reference)
Yes. But it depends on the formulation.
Thalasso Restore was designed to help calm reactive skin and rebuild the barrier after stress, surgery, or chronic conditions.
“I’ve tried everything for my adult acne. This cream was the only thing that didn’t burn, didn’t dry me out, and actually helped.”
Sometimes, the best results come when you stop fighting your skin and start supporting it. Sophie was one of our early testers during the pre-launch phase of Thalasso Restore. Her feedback provided us with our first glimpse into how the cream could support more than just reactive skin.
September 22, 2024: “I’ve been using it twice a day since July ...most of the marks now are just scars.”
October 21, 2024: “Usually I have to switch moisturizers...but the cream’s keeping it healthy!”
January 11, 2025: “Still no cystic acne...it hasn’t made my skin greasy at all — amazing!”
April 26, 2025: “Very active semester ... no extreme flares, better scarring, and a healed tattoo!”
According to functional dermatologists and natural health practitioners, acne is not just about clogged pores. It’s a visible signal of internal imbalance—inflammation, microbiome disruption, stress, genetics and hormonal shifts all play a role.
From clogged pores to deep inflammation, here’s how it presents:
| Acne Type | Appearance | Where It Shows Up | What It Means |
|---|---|---|---|
| Whiteheads | Small, closed bumps with a white top | Forehead, cheeks, nose | Pores clogged with oil and dead skin, not inflamed |
| Blackheads | Open, dark-topped bumps | Nose, chin, forehead | Open pores exposed to air — the oil inside oxidizes and turns dark, not from dirt |
| Papules | Small, red, inflamed bumps | Scattered across face | Blocked pores triggering inflammation |
| Pustules | Red bumps with white or yellow center | Clusters on cheeks or jaw | Inflamed and infected papules filled with pus |
| Cysts | Large, painful, deep lumps under the skin | Jawline, chin, neck | Severe inflammation |
We can’t claim to treat acne. But we can explain what our ingredients are known for:

Can I use it with other acne treatments?
