LION Pair Acne Cream W 14g
Calm the look of angry, inflamed breakouts with LION Pair Acne Cream W, a bestselling Japanese medicated acne treatment designed for targeted application. Its lightweight cream works directly on active pimples, helping to reduce inflammation, redness and acne-causing bacteria without the harsh, excessively drying feel associated with many traditional spot treatments.
The dual-action formula combines 3% Ibuprofen Piconol (IPPN) with 0.3% Isopropyl Methylphenol (IPMP). Ibuprofen Piconol provides anti-inflammatory care to help soothe swollen, red-looking blemishes, while Isopropyl Methylphenol offers antibacterial action against bacteria associated with acne.
Unlike heavy spot treatments, the smooth cream blends easily into the skin and becomes transparent once gently rubbed in. This makes it convenient for use during both morning and evening skincare routines. The compact 14g tube is also ideal for precise application and skincare on the go.

- Red and inflamed pimples
- Tender or swollen-looking blemishes
- Adult and hormonal breakouts
- Spots around the cheeks, nose, chin and jawline
- Occasional facial breakouts

Texture and Finish
The gentle cream has a smooth, lightweight texture that gradually becomes transparent as it is massaged into the affected area. It leaves the skin feeling comfortable and moisturised rather than heavily coated, making it easy to incorporate into an existing Japanese or Korean skincare routine.
How to Use
After cleansing, dry your face and apply a small amount directly to the affected area. Gently blend the cream into the spot until it becomes transparent.
Allow it to absorb before applying toner, moisturiser or other skincare products. Use morning and evening, or follow the directions supplied with the product. Avoid applying it unnecessarily across unaffected areas.
