Pores & Blackheads Regimen
Blackheads are not dirt, and they do not come out however hard you scrub. They are a mix of sebum and dead skin cells inside the pore, which is why neither a cleanser nor a scrub ever reaches them.
It is also why going harder does not help. The more the surface is scrubbed and dried out, the more oil the skin produces, and the faster the pore fills up again.
This routine works where the blockage actually sits. Expect visibly clearer pores and smoother skin within three to four weeks. Glycerin Hydra Cleanser cleanses away makeup, sunscreen and sebum without stripping the barrier. A few evenings a week, BHA Exfoliator comes in after cleansing, and because salicylic acid is oil-soluble it gets down into the pore and dissolves what is blocking it. Niacinamide Serum does the daily work on the look of pores and on sebum production, while Balancing Complex Moisturiser keeps the skin comfortable enough not to overcompensate.
Three daily essentials and one targeted booster. Every Jorgobé routine is built that way. What changes is which formulas go into it.
None of the products in the routine contains ingredients that are advised against during pregnancy.
Bought as a regimen, the four cost 25% less than buying them separately.
Benefits
Clears blackheads and congestion from inside the pore.
Refines the look of enlarged pores.
Smooths uneven texture.
Works on the oil production that fills the pores in the first place.
Gentle enough not to trigger more oil in response.
None of the products contains ingredients that are advised against during pregnancy. If in doubt, ask your doctor or midwife.
MORNING
Glycerin Hydra Cleanser, then Niacinamide Serum, then Balancing Complex Moisturiser.
EVENING
The same three. On the evenings you use the booster, it goes after the cleanser and before the serum.
BOOSTER
BHA Exfoliator, one to three evenings a week. Saturate a cotton pad and sweep over clean, dry skin, avoiding the eye area. Do not rinse.
Do not squeeze in between. Congestion clears faster when it is left alone.
What each step does:
Glycerin Hydra Cleanser: cleanses without stripping, on a high glycerin base
Niacinamide Serum: 14.8% smoother skin in four weeks, with more even tone
Balancing Complex Moisturiser: 42% smaller area of oily patches in four weeks
BHA Exfoliator: 2% salicylic acid working inside the pore
Based on clinical studies of the individual ingredients at the doses we use. Results vary from person to person.
One active does the work in each step. These are the four.
Glycerin 50%. In the cleanser. At this concentration it is the formula rather than an additive, which is why skin is more hydrated after rinsing than before.
Niacinamide 5%. In the serum. Refines the look of pores and helps settle the oil production that fills them.
REGU®-SEB Complex. In the moisturiser. Saw palmetto, sesame and argan work on sebum production directly.
Salicylic Acid 2%. In the booster. Oil-soluble, so it travels into the pore and dissolves the blockage rather than working on top of it.
Full ingredient lists are on each product page.

Materials and recycling
Packaging is the part of the product you throw away. That is why we spend time on it.
At least 50% of the plastic in our bottles and tubes is post-consumer recycled: plastic that has already been used and collected, rather than newly made. The rest is virgin plastic, and we work to bring that share down.
Not everything is plastic. Some products come in glass, others in aluminium that is itself recycled material. Both can be melted down and used again many times over.
Our outer cartons are paper.
How to sort it
Plastic bottles, tubes, pumps and caps: plastic. They do not need to be clean.
Glass bottles: glass.
Aluminium tubes: metal.
The carton: paper.
We are not there yet. Half of our plastic is still virgin, and that is the half we are working on.

Pores & Blackheads Regimen
The numbered icons on the packaging show the order. The booster carries a + rather than a number, because it does not always come last. Exfoliating boosters go in after cleansing, so they can prepare the surface. Treatment boosters go in after the serum. Each regimen tells you which.
MORNING
Glycerin Hydra Cleanser, then Niacinamide Serum, then Balancing Complex Moisturiser.
EVENING
The same three. On the evenings you use the booster, it goes after the cleanser and before the serum.
BOOSTER
BHA Exfoliator, one to three evenings a week. Saturate a cotton pad and sweep over clean, dry skin, avoiding the eye area. Do not rinse.
Do not squeeze in between. Congestion clears faster when it is left alone.
Why it works
Blackheads sit inside the pore, which is why nothing that works on the surface has ever shifted them.
Water-soluble acids and scrubs work on the top layer. Salicylic acid is oil-soluble, so it dissolves in the sebum and travels down to where the blockage actually is. That is the difference between clearing a pore and polishing the skin around it.
Clearing them is only half of it. Niacinamide and the REGU®-SEB complex work on the oil production that fills the pores again, which is why this routine keeps working past the first fortnight.

This routine has completely transformed my skin! I’ve tried countless acne treatments, including Exuviance twice, but nothing worked this fast. Even my old scars are fading. It’s pricey, but totally worth it. I’ll definitely be sticking with this
