Ingredients
Why is the Clear Out different?
Clear Out uses retinol + AZA to flush out dead skin and clogs. These two ingredients are the top choices for dermatologists and we’ve spent years balancing these two ingredients into a single lotion so that it maximizes their effectiveness. AZA then paired with pracaxi to quickly calm redness and heal. This combination of ingredients is very effective at flushing out clogs and calming down red marks.
Ingredient synergy is the reason why our products are more effective than other products which may contain retinol or AZA. All Clearly Basics products contain medical grade ingredients + synergy + botanical complexes that balance the formulations so that they do not irritate your skin.

A derivative of Vitamin A, retinoids are the primary tool that dermatologists use to clear clogs. Dr. Leyden & Dr Stein-Gold, 2017

Key Facts
A 30ml bottle of Clear Out is designed to last 90 days with nightly application.
After a single bottle, you should see a significant reduction in “normal” clogs. However, if you have closed comedones (hard lumps underneath your skin), these stubborn clogs operate on a 5-month timeline and may outlast your first bottle of Clear Out. By the second bottle, Clear Out will have flushed out even the most stubborn clogs.
What it is formulated without:
Fragrance-, colorant-, lanolin-, gluten-free and cruelty-free. This non-comedogenic formulation is freshly made in Singapore and packed in airless bottles so there are minimal preservatives.
When will I see results?
In the first month, this formulation will trigger a purge of dead skin trapped in your pores which can appear as flakes or low level breakouts. It is necessary to flush out this dead skin which is the material that creates clogs inside the pore. During this time, the formulation will also flush out any existing microcomedones … low level acne that was already in the making inside your pore. This purge will peak at week 5 and subside after week 8 of use. At week 10, you will turn over a clearer layer of skin that is less clog prone.

- Wash your face with a cleanser
- Apply toner (if applicable, free of AHAs/BHAs)
- Apply the Lighten Up (optional)

What makes Clearly Basics different?
We’ve taken products that are often EXCLUSIVELY sold in a dermatologist’s office at 3x the price and made it available for everyday consumers. We select USP certified medical grade ingredients when potency matters, but less expensive cosmetic grade ingredients when purity is not a concern.
The most frequent comment we get in our reviews is that users have tried everything and nothing has come close to the results they have seen with our formulations.
Frequently Asked Questions
How is Clear Out different from other products that claim to clear pores?
- USP Certified: Clear Out is loaded with medical grade (USP certified) ingredients. While medical grade ingredients cost a lot more than their cosmetic grade counterparts, it ensures a level of purity and potency for our ingredients and ultimately this means that we ensure effectiveness.
- Multiple Actives: Clear Out has three active ingredients that have been carefully balanced so that each ingredient works together to address clogged pores on acne-prone skin. This means that with lower concentrations (fewer side effects), we will generate better results.
- Transparency: Clearly has a money-back guarantee on its product and we are confident that you will see a noticeable decrease in clogs after your first bottle of Clear Out. Also, Clearly keeps the reviews section of its Facebook Page open. You can see that the reviews are from real users who have used our products. Most peer brands have shut down the reviews section of their pages or have directed their reviews to a website where they can filter and show only the good reviews.
How do I apply Clear Out?
- Wash your face for the evening and pat dry. Wait 3 minutes before applying Clear Out
- Apply a pea-sized pump of Clear Out AFTER cleansing and toning but BEFORE other night creams
- Start Clear Out with alternate nightly application. This gives your skin time to adjust to the strength of the formulation. Step up to nightly application after one week if no lasting irritation occurs
- Clear Out packs quite a punch. As such, avoid using products which contain AHAs or BHAs until your skin has adjusted and you are not experiencing irritation
- During the day, use a non-comedogenic facial sunscreen with SPF+30 if you are going outdoors
How often do I apply Clear Out?
Can I use these products alongside my other skincare products?
If Clear Out is too drying, most users will apply the Moisturizer after applying Clear Out. If Clear Out is too strong, apply the Moisturizer before applying Clear Out. This should only be done for two weeks until your skin adjusts and we can then step up by applying Clear Out first before the Moisturizer.
Can I use this product if I have sensitive skin?
Can I use this product if I have oily skin?
What do I do about acne marks?
Can I use this product if I am trying to conceive, breastfeeding or pregnant?
If you are pregnant, consult your doctor regarding the use of an over the counter topical retinol lotion.
Clear Out can also be used by men in all stages of life.
I am getting new breakouts while using Clear Out. Should I discontinue use?
Get through the purge and by week eight, it’s smooth sailing! You will turn over a new layer of skin with fewer clogs. Every bottle is designed to last 3 months so you should see this turnover and improved results by the end of your first bottle.
Can I use Clear Out for rosacea, psoriasis, cystic or nodular acne?
Will certain skin conditions make the purge worse?
Can I Clear Out on my back or body?
How can I tell the difference between a reaction and a purge
- A rash or breakout caused by a reaction/allergy would show up within the first day whereas a purge would take at least several days before surfacing.
- A breakout caused by a reaction would surface even on areas where you typically do not have acne. If you are applying Clear Out on your whole face and only getting breakouts where you normally get pimples, this is likely a normal purge.
- If the breakouts you are getting are itchy 10 minutes after applying Clear out, discontinue use.

@startingtolovemyself ✨Not a pimple in sight!!!✨
It’s been about 3 weeks since I started using @clearlybasics Clear Out, Lighten Up and the Protective Moisturizer (the Complete Trio) and my skin has improved so much and I definitely think it’s from the Clear Out formula most of all!
It really is a miracle in a bottle! I’m excited to see how my skin changes even more in the next few weeks and months using them!

Michaela Holzhuter I’ve struggled with adult acne for years. I’ve spent hundreds of dollars trying to grab at the next promise for clear skin. Clearly Basics is the first brand that actually worked for me! It’s simple (it actually decreased the time I was spending caring for my skin), it’s scale-able (buy one product or by seven!), and it works. I couldn’t be happier with this product and the continuous progress it has provided!

@roxyrogan I have struggled with hormonal acne for over 1 year and had tried every face cream, scrub & peel you could find! When I started with Clearly Basics my skin started to clear within using the first bottle of ‘Clear Out’!
My skin is now on the road to recovery and I still use Clearly Basics ‘Clear Out, Protective Moisturizer and Lighten Up’ products every day! Highly recommend Clearly Basics to anyone who’s suffering from stubborn acne! 💛

@brittaneyshanae I swear the Power Duo (Clear Out and Lighten Up) are a GOD-send! I’ve been using both consistently for 3 months now and my skin has NEVER looked or felt better! I haven’t experienced a breakout since March and more than 80% of my hyperpigmentation is GONE!
I’m so grateful to have finally found a product that actually works for my skin!
If you’re dealing with acne breakouts and hyperpigmentation, you should def research Clearly Basics.

@carliedaniel18 I have suffered with acne since i was 13, After years of medication, and spending absolutely £1000s on products that didn’t work i decided to try prescription oral medication, and it was the hardest 8 months of my life. I got all the side affects, and even though eventually it did clear my skin after being off it for just 3 months my skin got bad again especially hormonally!
I then came across clearly basics, although the reviews were good I was very reluctant as it wasn’t cheap and could be another dud that didn’t work! Eventually I gave in as I always do and it was the best decision ever! I can’t believe I hadn’t come across this sooner, my skin has cleared up so much. It’s made my skin soft and glowy as well, it genuinely is everything in a bottle!

@celesterobinson This company is honestly incredible! I have been struggling with really painful hormonal cystic acne for years. I was prescribed oral medication, but decided against taking it because of all the side effects. So I did some research and found Clearly Basics! I have been using the Power Duo for 3 months and the progress my skin has made has been amazing! It has cleared my skin without causing any irritation or sensitivity. I am finally at the stage where I can leave the house without makeup! My skin is clear!! The customer service is also very personal and efficient. I don’t have enough wonderful things to say about these products, they literally saved my skin.

After almost a year of using Clearly Basics, I can honestly say that it has been worth every single penny spent. It has not only dramatically improved my skin but also drastically improved my confidence too. For the first time in years, I feel happy with what I see when I look in the mirror without make-up. I still get spots, as that is just the nature of my skin, but my face is noticeably clearer, smoother and less red. Also, when I do get a spot now, it gets nowhere near as big or painful as it would have done in the past and clears up a lot quicker. My breakouts are now less frequent, less severe and it does not have a negative impact on my mood like they used to. Having tried pretty much every face wash and spot cream on the market, I feel so happy that I have finally found something that is not a waste of money and actually gives results. I cannot say enough good things about Clearly! I just wish I had discovered it years ago. Would not hesitate to recommend.
Michaela L. (verified owner) –
In the last 4 years my acne has been the worst it has ever been, my cheeks constantly had big cystic pimples, when one would go away another would appear. The redness and scaring was so bad I had people think I had a severe case of Chicken Pox. I never suffered from acne in high school, so having it so bad in my early 20s was very struggling for my self confidence.
Like many, I tried product after product, spent hundreds, if not thousands of dollars. I saw Clearly Basics pop up on my newfeeds on social media and I spent a few weeks looking into the products and reviews. I sent in my photos to get a recommendation on which products to choose and the Duo seemed to be my best shot. So I took the risk and I am thrilled to say it was SO WORTH IT! Within the first month I noticed a huge change in the amount of new acne that was popping up- hardly any new ones. Over the first three months the redness and scaring has faded and I now only get one new pimple maybe a few days a week. The products were not harsh on my skin and I still could use my normal cleansing and makeup routines. My skin is definitely so much better than before and I now feel confident to go without makeup in public. I will definitely be purchasing another set, as I know it will just keep getting better from here!

I love, LOVE this product Loving my face and not afraid to take pictures of myself and with others! Thankyou so much Clearly Basics!!
Vonda (verified owner) –
It actually works. I have bought so many things online, offline, I have had adult acne for 10 years. I did proactive, I was prescribed medicated cream and did a round of oral prescription medication. I am not acne free yet. But it is 90 percent better!
Nur A (verified owner) –
I have been struggling with acne and tried all sorts of skincare – CosRx, The ordinary but I ended up giving up because they simply were not fast enough or not effective. I was so desperate that I was willing to give anything a try that I saw an advertisement by Clearly. Bought the Power Duo and all else is history. Received the items fuss-free in beautiful packaging within 2 working days. Large papules will be flattened and diminished within 2 to 3 days. No other products come close to them. Anyone looking for a solution do not hesitate or think twice about Clearly. A plus point would be Clara, Clearlys dermatologist is very responsive and helpful should you have any concerns.
