Will truly be ride or die for the rest of my life

All your products have done miracles for my hormonal acne. I struggled for more than a year trying to fix it but nothing worked until I came across The Breakout Hack. CANNOT THANK YOU ENOUGH!

Jasmyne

Amazing product!

Loved this product so much! Saw results within 1-2 weeks and I couldn’t be happier! My skin is less red and irritated and feels so smooth ! I have used so many products before and this is the first one that actually works!! Don’t walk run girls to buy this!

The Breakout Hack's acne treatment bundle

I enjoyed using this acne bundle. I noticed a huge change in my skin; the cluster of blemishes I used to have has disappeared. I barely get any breakouts anymore, and any that I do get never last long.

The Breakout Hack acne kit review

On first appearance, it's very eye-catching with the colours. Very modern labelling and packaging. I found all products to be very gentle on my skin, with a light scent nothing unpleasant. Smells like a moisturiser. The pimple patches were quite straight forward and I found them to work well at drawing out what needs to come out.

Works wonders!!

The Breakout Hack has helped my hormonal acne immensely, the products were so easy to use, didn't have any harsh smells and made my skin feel soft.

How quickly will I see results?

What makes the breakout hack different?

The Breakout Hack is an Australian skincare brand that set out on a mission to understand, empathise with, and solve their customers' problems. And while managing acne may appear to be a clinical problem to solve, co-founder Rachael understood that the challenges surrounding acne went way below the surface of her customer's skin.

The Breakout Hack has been created to not only bring you a new technology in its products, but is driven by the passion of its people to help young people across the globe get through this truly challenging time of their lives.

The Breakout Hack routine provides an alternative to benzoyl peroxide and salicylic acid treatments, whilst also providing a supportive and safe space to get you through your skin journey.

How do I know what to use?

Start with what your skin’s craving. For example, if you’re breaking out often, you could try the spot cream and spot cleanser. If your skin barrier needs a little extra love, you could reach for the hydrating milk toner and rebound serum. Heading out and dealing with a pesky pimple (or five)? Our pimple patches are your secret weapon (or not-so-secret, if you choose to rock our patterned patches). Or, take our quick skin quiz to build your perfect skincare routine. They're the same products that put us on the map, just with a new name!

Are the products vegan and cruelty free?

YES, absolutely! We love our floofy friends… NOT TESTED ON ANIMALS and no animal products used!

Why did you change the name from tbh Skincare to the breakout hack?

Long story short? A trademark issue made our original name not viable for global expansion. But instead of splitting our identity across markets, we made the call to unify under one name, The Breakout Hack.
