Bliss Clear Genius Body Acne Spray

Acne. It seems for many of us, it’s something that sticks around no matter what the age. I have it mostly controlled on my face with the help of retinols and glycolics, but body acne is an issue that happens more for me during the Summer when the temps rise.  Naturally, I thought this was a great time to share an effective, affordable product that I’ve been using off and on the past year.

I received the entire Clear Genius Acne line from Bliss a while back and gave every product a try. Most, I didn’t care for actually, since I wasn’t dealing with too much acne on the face. But for the body, the Bliss Clear Genius Body Acne Spray has been super helpful. 

Why I need it

I’m someone who lives in workout clothes, and sometimes, for a little too long. I work out in the early morning and by the time I come home I am packing lunches, getting a kid dressed, making my own smoothie, making beds, etc. My shower is the absolute last priority in the mornings and sometimes I’m wearing the same stuff at 11 am. Sitting in sweaty, tight workout clothes isn’t a good idea and we all know this….but my schedule is what it is!

Tight, sweaty workout clothes is a major breeding ground for, you guessed it, acne bacteria! I have a couple of areas on my body that get hit with body acne from time to time and I can’t help but feel a little embarrassed when it ends up in a visible spot. I know it’s normal, but I really hate how it looks and want it gone fast. 

The ingredient list

Bliss Clear Genius Body Acne Spray uses a BHA (2% salicylic acid) to reduce active acne and prevent future breakouts. It also uses witch hazel (a skin astringent), cica (skin soother), zinc PCA (controls oil) and niacinamide (minimizes pores), making this a fantastic all-around formula. It does NOT include any drying alcohols. 

My experience

What I really like about this body spray is how easy it is to use. It comes in a toothpaste tube packaging, but with a sprayer that works in all directions. Something that makes a HUGE difference in the application if you have less mobility. Not everyone can reach their back well, but with this, I can spray it sideways, upside down, basically in any direction and it will spray nicely. 

I’m glad they skipped adding benzoyl peroxide to this because I’ve had enough pillow sheets and cases ruined from overnight acne treatments that bleached anything it touched. You don’t need to worry about that with this one. It dries down pretty fast and has never ruined my clothes. 

Nor do you need to worry about it containing any cloying scents since it was formulated to be fragrance-free. 

This spray works really fast. I mean, I am dealing with minimal acne, I’m talking a few pimples here or there. But using this spray right after the shower for a few days clears things up even quicker than it claims. 

I’ll be keeping this handy throughout the summer to keep all body parts acne free!

This product is vegan and cruelty-free.
