Clears Active Breakouts

Vivant Derm-A-Gel is designed to target active acne by supporting healthy cell turnover and reducing pore congestion. Its lightweight, water-based texture allows vitamin A to work directly where breakouts form, helping clear existing blemishes while reducing the likelihood of new breakouts developing over time. Its retinyl propionate is a patented, non-prescription retinoid that promotes cell turnover.

Laziza S

"Perfect product if you’ve never used Vitamin A or have some experience with it, but want something more targeted for acne, pigmentation, and texture. Vivant Derm-A-Gel is a great next step. It clears congestion, smooths the skin, and helps even tone without feeling heavy or stripping. I especially love it for adult acne, teens or clients in their 20s, and reactive skin."

Helps Fade Dark Marks

Derm-A-Gel supports the improvement of post-acne marks and melasma by combining vitamin A with kojic acid. This pairing helps regulate pigment production, prevent new discoloration from forming, and encourage healthy cell turnover - allowing acne marks and sun-related pigmentation to fade more evenly over time with consistent use.

Retinyl Propionate

A patented, non-prescription retinoid that promotes cell turnover, smoother texture, and firmer-looking skin with less irritation than traditional retinol.

Kojic Acid

Targets discoloration and uneven tone to help brighten the appearance of dark spots and post-inflammatory marks.

Lactic Acid

A gentle alpha hydroxy acid that smooths texture and enhances radiance without aggressive exfoliation.

Improves Uneven Texture

Regular use helps smooth rough, uneven skin texture often left behind by acne or buildup. As cell turnover improves, the skin appears more refined and balanced, supporting a smoother surface while your barrier stays comfortable. Lactic acid, a gentle alpha hydroxy acid, adds smoothing and radiance alongside the vitamin A.

Supports Oil Balance Without Heaviness

The gel-based formula helps regulate excess oil while remaining lightweight and breathable on the skin. It absorbs quickly without clogging pores, making it ideal for oily or combination skin types that need correction without added weight or occlusion. It is a lovely fit for adult acne, teens, and people in their twenties who want targeted care without heaviness.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is Derm-A-Gel different from Derm-A-Renew?

Derm-A-Renew is a gentler starter vitamin A, while Derm-A-Gel is a step up. Derm-A-Gel is more targeted for acne, congestion, and texture once the skin has some retinoid tolerance.

Is this best for oily or acne-prone skin?

Yes. Its water-based texture and oil-balancing ingredients make it especially effective for acne-prone and adult acne skin.

Will this cause purging?

Purging can occur as cell turnover increases, especially in acne-prone skin. This is normal and typically improves within several weeks as the skin adjusts.

Can this help with post-acne marks?

Yes. Kojic acid and lactic acid help improve the appearance of discoloration while vitamin A supports overall skin renewal.

Can I use this with other Vivant products?

Yes. It pairs well with mandelic acid cleansers, gentle toners, and barrier-supportive moisturizers. Avoid layering with too many strong actives at first.
