How Epifine Facewash works

A face wash cleanses by using surfactants that lift oil, dirt and debris from the skin so they can be rinsed away. Depending on added actives (e.g., anti-acne/keratolytic agents), it may also help unclog pores and reduce breakouts; exact mechanism depends on the full ingredient list.

How to take Epifine Facewash

Wet face, take a small amount, gently massage over face for 20–30 seconds avoiding eyes, then rinse thoroughly and pat dry. Use 1–2 times daily or as directed; follow with a non-comedogenic moisturizer and sunscreen in daytime.

Take it exactly as your doctor prescribed. Do not change the dose or stop early on your own.
