Questions?
We’ve got answers brought to you by Software’s skincare experts.
Can all ages use the Acne Supplement?
Our Acne Supplement is recommended for those above 16 years old and above. If in doubt, please consult with your practitioner before use.
Does this acne supplement work for hormonal acne?
Yes, the Acne Supplement works for all types of acne, whether hormonal, bacterial, cystic or otherwise. Since acne isn’t always triggered by the same thing, there are different ways to treat acne breakouts — including medication, topical treatments and getting the right vitamins and nutrients through a healthy diet.
How does zinc help acne?
Zinc helps to reduce the symptoms of acne, like skin eruptions and pimples. Plus, zinc is perfect for healing skin wounds and supporting skin health to look after your appearance post-breakout.
Are these Acne Supplements suitable for all skin types?
Yes, the Acne Supplements are great for all types of skin — whether dry, oily, combination, or sensitive. In fact, it’s a great first step for anyone looking for a more natural acne solution before diving into active ingredients.
How is the Acne Supplement different from a hair, skin, and nails vitamin?
Most hair, skin. and nail vitamins feature combinations of biotin, silica, and zinc. The Acne Supplement contains more mineral complexes, including astaxanthin, an antioxidant that helps to reduce free radicals damage; vitamin C to support collagen production and skin health; betacarotene for antioxidant properties; and copper gluconate to support collagen formation.
Is the Acne Supplement vegan?
Yes, the Acne Supplement is vegan, gluten-free and cruelty-free, as it is not tested on animals.
Can I take the Acne Supplement alongside other supplements or medications?
Please consult a healthcare professional before taking multiple supplements together (Software or other brands) to confirm you are not exceeding the recommended daily intakes of any ingredient, and to assess any interactions with medications you may be taking.
Can I take the Acne Supplement while pregnant or breastfeeding?
Our Acne Supplement is made from vitamins and herbal ingredients. However, there is a lack of rigorous studies with newborns and infants as subjects, so we are currently unable to claim whether it is safe or unsafe for pregnant women, or breastfeeding mothers and their babies.
As such, we would advise against using the Acne Supplement while pregnant or breastfeeding.
