Fungal Acne (Malassezia)

Not fungal acne safe. Contains Cetyl Palmitate, Isohexadecane, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, and PEG-7 Glyceryl Cocoate which may feed Malassezia yeast.

Fragrance-Free

No added fragrances or common allergens. Suitable for sensitive skin that reacts to perfumed products.

Low Comedogenic Risk

Rated 1/5 for comedogenicity. Lightweight formula designed for acne-prone skin is unlikely to clog pores for most users.

Ingredient breakdown

INGREDIENTS

Ceramide NG + Ceramide NPProven

Two types of naturally occurring ceramides that make up approximately 50% of the skin's intercellular matrix. They restore and strengthen the skin barrier, lock in hydration, and protect against environmental stressors.

  • Function: Barrier repair, moisture retention, and anti-inflammatory support
  • Science: Ceramides are essential lipids in the stratum corneum; topical application has been shown to improve barrier function and reduce transepidermal water loss (TEWL)
  • Synergy: Niacinamide in this formula also boosts natural ceramide production, amplifying the barrier-repair effect
Two types of ceramides (NG + NP) provide broader barrier support than single-ceramide formulas.

Niacinamide (Vitamin B3)Proven

A multi-functional superstar that addresses blemishes, uneven skin tone, enlarged pores, and fine lines. Clinically proven at concentrations of 2–5% for visible skin improvements.

  • Anti-blemish: At 2%+ concentration, reduces dark spots and evens skin tone
  • Barrier boost: Stimulates the skin's own ceramide synthesis for stronger barrier function
  • Sebum control: At 4–5%, helps regulate oil production and minimize pore appearance
  • Anti-aging: Reduces fine lines and wrinkles with consistent use

Gluconolactone (PHA)Proven

A polyhydroxy acid (PHA) that offers the exfoliating benefits of AHAs but with significantly less irritation due to its larger molecular size. Ideal for sensitive and acne-prone skin.

  • Exfoliation: Gently dissolves dead skin cells to improve texture and brightness
  • Moisturizing: Acts as a humectant, attracting water to the skin surface
  • Antioxidant: A 2004 study found it can help prevent UV-induced skin cell damage
  • Gentle: Does not increase sun sensitivity unlike traditional AHAs

Hybrid UV Filter System SPF 50Proven

A comprehensive blend of chemical and mineral sunscreen agents providing broad-spectrum UVA+UVB protection at the highest daily-wear level.

  • Homosalate: UVB filter (peak ~306 nm), commonly used to boost overall SPF
  • Avobenzone (Butyl Methoxydibenzoylmethane): Gold-standard UVA filter, provides critical long-wave protection
  • Mexoryl SX (Terephthalylidene Dicamphor Sulfonic Acid): Photostable UVA filter, stabilizes Avobenzone
  • Ensulizole (Phenylbenzimidazole Sulfonic Acid): Water-soluble UVB filter with lightweight feel
  • Zinc Oxide: Mineral filter providing the broadest spectrum coverage (UVB + UVA I + UVA II)
Contains chemical UV filters (Homosalate, Ethylhexyl Dimethyl PABA) that may not be suitable for those seeking mineral-only sunscreens or during pregnancy.

Allantoin + Betaine + GlycerinProven

A hydrating and soothing trio that works alongside ceramides. Allantoin calms irritation and promotes cell renewal, Betaine balances hydration naturally, and Glycerin draws moisture into the skin.

  • Allantoin: Anti-irritant and skin protectant; promotes wound healing and cell regeneration
  • Betaine: Natural humectant found in skin; helps maintain hydration and soothes sensitive skin
  • Glycerin: One of the best-studied humectants; attracts and retains water in the upper skin layers

How to use

HOW TO USE
1

Cleanse & Prep

Start with a clean face. Apply your toner and any serums first, allowing each layer to absorb for 30 seconds.

2

Apply Generously

Squeeze a nickel-sized amount (approx. 1/4 teaspoon) onto fingertips. Apply to face and neck using gentle upward massage motions until fully absorbed.

3

Wait Before Makeup

Allow 2–3 minutes for the cream to set before applying makeup or primer for the best base and optimal SPF protection.

4

Reapply as Needed

Reapply every 2 hours during prolonged sun exposure, or after sweating, swimming, or wiping your face.

06

Who is it for?

WHO

Perfect for you if:

  • You have acne-prone or blemish-prone skin and need daily SPF
  • You want a moisturizer + sunscreen combo to simplify your AM routine
  • You struggle with dark spots, post-acne marks, or uneven skin tone
  • You prefer fragrance-free and paraben-free formulas
  • You want ceramide-based barrier repair with high sun protection
  • You are on a budget but still want effective active ingredients

Consider alternatives if:

  • You have fungal acne (Malassezia folliculitis) — this product is not FA-safe
  • You are pregnant or breastfeeding — consult your doctor first

  • You have very dry skin and need a richer, heavier moisturizer
  • You have extremely sensitive eyes (contains Triethanolamine)
  • You need high water/sweat resistance for sports or swimming
07

Skin type compatibility

SKIN TYPES
Oily Skin
Excellent

Lightweight texture absorbs quickly without adding shine. Niacinamide helps regulate sebum and minimize pores. Semi-matte finish works well under makeup.

Combination Skin
Excellent

Balances well across oily and dry zones. Ceramides hydrate without heaviness, while niacinamide controls shine in the T-zone.

Acne-Prone Skin
Excellent

Specifically formulated for blemish-prone skin. Non-comedogenic (1/5), fragrance-free, and packed with anti-blemish actives. Not suitable for fungal acne.

Sensitive Skin
Good

Fragrance-free with soothing allantoin and barrier-repairing ceramides. However, chemical UV filters may irritate very reactive skin. Patch test recommended.

Dry Skin
Moderate

Provides decent hydration via ceramides, glycerin, and betaine, but may not be rich enough as a sole moisturizer. Layer a hydrating serum or heavier cream underneath.

Frequently asked questions

FAQ

Use with caution. This product contains chemical UV filters including Homosalate and Ethylhexyl Dimethyl PABA, which have raised concerns about potential endocrine disruption. While there is no definitive evidence of harm at cosmetic concentrations, many dermatologists recommend switching to mineral-only sunscreens (zinc oxide or titanium dioxide only) during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Always consult your OB-GYN or dermatologist before use.

No, this product is not fungal acne safe. It contains several ingredients that can feed Malassezia yeast, including Cetyl Palmitate, Isohexadecane, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, and PEG-7 Glyceryl Cocoate. If you have Malassezia folliculitis, look for alternatives that specifically avoid esters, fatty acids, and oils with carbon chain lengths of C11–C24.

Yes. This cream works well as a morning follow-up to nighttime retinol or AHA/BHA treatments. The ceramides and niacinamide help soothe and repair skin that may be sensitized by active treatments. For vitamin C serums, apply the vitamin C serum first, let it absorb, then layer this cream on top. Avoid using strong AHA/BHA exfoliants at the same time of day as this cream, as the Gluconolactone (PHA) already provides gentle exfoliation.

This cream is best suited for oily, combination, and acne-prone skin types. Its lightweight texture, sebum-regulating niacinamide, and non-comedogenic formula make it ideal for those who need moisture and SPF without heaviness. Sensitive skin types can also benefit from its fragrance-free, ceramide-enriched formula, though a patch test is recommended. It may not provide enough hydration for very dry skin as a standalone moisturizer.

Immediate hydration and UV protection are felt from day one. Barrier repair improvements (less dryness, reduced sensitivity) typically become noticeable within 1–2 weeks of consistent use. For anti-blemish results like fading dark spots and more even skin tone, expect to see visible changes in 4–8 weeks. The best results come with consistent daily use over 2–3 months.

This cream is your last skincare step in the morning, replacing both your daytime moisturizer and sunscreen. The recommended order is: Cleanser, Toner, Serum (e.g., vitamin C), then this cream. Since it contains SPF 50, no additional sunscreen is needed on top. Wait 2–3 minutes before applying makeup. At night, use a separate moisturizer without SPF.

This cream has a low comedogenic rating of 1 out of 5, meaning it is unlikely to clog pores for most users. It is specifically formulated for acne-prone skin and is free from common pore-clogging culprits like heavy oils and fragrances. However, individual skin responses vary — if you are very acne-prone, introduce it gradually and monitor your skin for the first 1–2 weeks.

The product has a Period After Opening (PAO) of 12 months. After opening, use within one year for optimal efficacy and safety. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. The 50ml tube typically lasts 4–6 weeks with proper daily SPF application (about 1/4 teaspoon per use), so you will likely finish it well within the 12-month PAO window.

— Skincarisma verdict
4.2 / 5 ★★★★☆

Verdict: The Revuele Ceramide Anti-Blemish Daily Cream SPF 50 delivers exceptional value for money, packing dual ceramides, niacinamide, PHA, and hybrid SPF 50 protection into an affordable, fragrance-free formula. It excels as a multi-tasking day cream for oily, combination, and acne-prone skin — simplifying the AM routine by combining moisturizer, barrier repair, and sun protection in one step. The main drawbacks are that it is not fungal acne safe, contains debated chemical UV filters (making it less ideal for pregnancy), and the 50ml tube size runs out quickly with proper SPF application. Overall, it is a smart budget pick for anyone seeking a ceramide-based SPF moisturizer that targets blemishes without irritation.

question
lightbulb What are Notable Effects & Ingredients?

Ever used a product that promised a certain effect but provided no results? It might not have contained any notable ingredients that could have been responsible for that promised effect. It doesn't matter what the marketing or packaging «promises» it can do, if it doesn't contain anything that can help - then the likelihood of it helping is low.

We help you identify key notable ingredients that have been shown to help with effects such as acne-fighting, brightening, UV-protection, wound healing & anti-aging to help you achieve your skincare goals smarter. Please note that different notable ingredients have varying levels of research behind them, some are extremely well proven yet some have mixed research in their efficacy.

muscle Pro Tip Alert!

Just because a product doesn't contain any notable ingredients doesn't mean it's bad. And a product with notable ingredients (or even many) doesn't necessarily guarantee the efficacy of the product performing these effects either. There are other factors such as ingredient quality, concentration and formulation that will ultimately determine this.

question
lightbulb What is the Ingredient Safety Breakdown?

Ingredient Safety Breakdown refers to the percentage % of ingredients in different risk categories as classified by EWG (Environment Working Group) if they are available. There are almost endless cosmetic ingredients and they are one of the few organisations globally that have assigned ratings to a lot of the more commonly used ingredients which is why we reference them.

muscle Pro Tip Alert!

EWG is seen by many to be more on the alarmist side in their assignment of health ratings resulting in rating ingredients as riskier than they actually are. We recommend using this a reference point rather than a strict guide of ingredient safety and to always do further research if into ingredients that you may find suspect.
