Acnestar Gel is an anti-acne topical preparation. It helps reduce acne-causing bacteria and inflammation and promotes unclogging of pores to prevent formation of new pimples. The exact mechanism depends on the active ingredient(s) in the gel.

For external use only. Clean and dry the affected area, then apply a thin layer to the acne-affected skin once daily or as advised by a doctor. Avoid contact with eyes, lips, inside nose and broken/irritated skin; wash hands after application.
