Key Ingredients

Here’s what powers the Numbuzin No.1 Pantothenic B5 Active Drying Powder:

Calamine A classic skin-calming ingredient with a long history in dermatology. Calamine helps reduce redness, soothe itching, and absorb excess oil from the surface of inflamed pimples.

Sulfur A well-established acne-fighting ingredient that helps dry out active breakouts, reduce bacteria on the skin’s surface, and unclog congested pores. It’s particularly effective on whiteheads and pustules.

Pantothenic Acid (Vitamin B5) Also known as panthenol’s parent compound, B5 helps soothe irritation, support skin recovery, and balance the drying action of sulfur and calamine. It’s what makes this formula gentle enough for repeat use.

Salicylic Acid (BHA) This oil-soluble acid penetrates into the pore to dissolve buildup and help clear out the gunk causing the breakout in the first place.

Centella Asiatica Extract Often called cica, this plant extract is known for soothing inflammation and supporting the skin barrier, which is especially helpful for angry, sensitive breakouts.

Allantoin A gentle skin conditioner that adds extra calming and recovery benefits to the formula.

Madecassoside A derivative of centella with strong skin-soothing and recovery-supporting properties, ideal for calming red, irritated breakouts.

How to Use

1. Don’t Shake the Bottle — Let the pink powder settle at the bottom of the bottle before use.
2. Dip a Cotton Swab — Gently dip a clean cotton swab into the powder layer at the bottom (not the liquid above).
3. Apply on Spots Only — Dab the powder directly onto each blemish, building up a visible pink layer over the spot.
4. Leave On Overnight — Let it dry undisturbed and rinse off gently in the morning with a cleanser.

Use: PM (overnight) Where in routine: Last step, after moisturizer (spot only) Pro Tip: Apply this only on whiteheads and inflamed pimples that have come to a head — using it on dry skin or under-the-skin cysts won’t give the same results. For best results, leave the area undisturbed and avoid touching the spot during the night.
