Ingredients
Why is the Clear Out Extra Strength (COES) different?
COES is ~20% stronger than Clear Out; it contains a higher concentration of retinol and uses salicylic acid instead of pracaxi. Retinol + AZA are the top choices for dermatologists and we’ve spent years balancing the two ingredients into a single lotion so that it maximizes the effectiveness of the two ingredients. AZA is also paired with salicylic acid to break down sebum. This combination of ingredients is very effective in breaking down and flushing out clogs. You can’t find this combination of ingredients anywhere else on the market.
Key Ingredients
Retinol
A derivative of Vitamin A, retinoids are the primary tool that dermatologists use to clear clogs. Dr. Leyden & Dr Stein-Gold, 2017
Benefits
- Flushes out dead skin cells
Retinol perpetually flushes out dead skin cells making it harder for clogs to form inside your pores. Dr Kraft & Dr Freiman, 2019 - Flattens bumpy skin
Dr Schmidt & Dr Gans, 2011 - Restores skin, reduces fine lines & wrinkles
Retinol enhances hydration and reduces the appearance of scars, fine lines and wrinkles. British Journal of Dermatology, 2010 - Boosts collagen
Department of Dermatology, University of Michigan Medical School, 2007
Naturally formed on your skin. AZA helps to calm redness, improves skin texture and brightens the skin. Working together with retinol, AZA helps with post-acne marks and calming redness. Dr. St Surin-Lord & Dr. Miller
Benefits
- Improves skin texture
Even more effective than retinol, AZA is well established in improving the texture of your skin. - Cleans the inside of the pores
Dr Nazzaro & Dr Passi, 1989 - Fades the appearance of post-acne marks
Dr Hollinger & Dr Angra, 2018
Salicylic Acid (BHA)
Helps to decrease oily skin lipids. Dr Lu et al, 2019
Benefits
- Reduces oily skin
Dr Tasleem, 2019 - Effective astringent
Highly effective astringent that can minimize the appearance of pores by tightening the skin and reducing the oiliness of the skin. - Exfoliates the skin
Penetrates into the pores of the skin to dissolve dead skin cells, removes dirt, bacteria, and grime that has built up on the surface of the skin.
Clear Out Extra Strength Volume: 30ml, 1.01 fluid ounces.
Each bottle is designed to last 3 months with nightly application.
Why is the Matte Hydrator different?
The hyaluronic acid molecule is normally too large to absorb into the skin and many brands save costs by only including a small amount of micronized hyaluronic acid. Our formulation is 100% Ultra Low Molecular Weight (ULMW) hyaluronic acid … no shortcuts, only the good stuff that will actually absorb into your skin.
Clear Out Extra Strength + Matte Hydrator is very effective at unclogging pores and normalizing oil production.
Key Ingredients
100% ULMW Hyaluronic Acid
Holding 1000x its weight in moisture, hyaluronic acid locks in moisture and revitalizes the deeper layers of the skin so that it is soft and smooth.
Benefits
- Perfect for hydration
Naturally produced in your skin, hyaluronic acid is the key molecule involved in skin moisture. Dr Roth et al, 2012 - Absorbs quickly
The hyaluronic acid molecule is too large to absorb into the skin so you must micronize the molecule to 5nm so that it will readily absorb into the skin. Dr Jegasothy et al, 2014
Matte Hydrator Volume: 30ml, 1.01 fluid ounces.
Each bottle is designed to last 3 months being applied in the morning.
Why is Lighten Up different?
There are very few formulations on the market designed to fade the appearance of post-acne red marks and even fewer formulations that are effective. Clearly Basicsā Lighten Up uses three essential oils that fade the appearance of red marks. You should see a significant improvement within 6 weeks of use.
Key Ingredients
Calendula
A natural oil extracted from marigold flowers, calendula is a powerful antioxidant that protects the skin against environmental damage.
Benefits
- Powerful antioxidant that improves skin texure and tone
Dr Kim et al, 2018 - Calms skin
Calendula contains flavonoids and triterpene derivatives which calm the skin. Dr Dawid-Pac, 2013
Bisabolol
An essential oil extracted from chamomile flowers, bisabolol is an excellent anti-irritant, soothing agent & a humectant to lock in skinās natural moisture.
Benefits
- Calms the skin
Maurya et al, 2013 - Lightening effect
Dr Lee et al, 2010 - Stimulates and promotes healing
Dr Villegas et al, 2001 - Potent antioxidant
Potent antioxidant with well-known soothing and anti-irritant properties. Dr Miraj & Dr Alesaeidj, 2016
Pracaxi Oil
This tea tree oil found in the Amazon is an age-old remedy used to promote healing and soothe redness. Banov et al, 2014
Benefits
- Fades the appearance of post-acne marks
Teixeira et al, 2012 - Hydration
By hydrating the lesion, the skin does not need to produce extra collagen that may lead to textured scarring. Banov et al, 2014 - Keeping the surface clean
As a tea tree oil, pracaxi is effective in keeping open lesions clean. Dr Guimaraes & Dr Cunha, 2016
Lighten Up Volume: 15ml, 0.5 fluid ounces.
Each bottle is designed to last up to 3 months depending on the number of post-acne red marks present.
Key Facts
Unclog your pores and reduce the need for your skin to produce so much oil. This is the perfect set for those with active breakouts on oily skin to reduce the appearance of red marks and reduce the oily sheen that you may get during the day. This set contains a 30ml bottle of Clear Out Extra Strength, a 30ml bottle of Matte Hydrator and a 15ml bottle of Lighten Up.
What it does:
Clear Out Extra Strength will flush out clogs and clear whiteheads and blackheads. Lighten Up will reduce the appearance of red post-acne marks and the Matte Hydrator will moisturize your skin so that your sebum glands produce less oil. These three formulations were designed to work together to help those with oily acne-prone skin.
What it is formulated without:
Fragrance-, colorant-, lanolin-free. PETA certified vegan and cruelty-free. This non-comedogenic formulation is freshly made in Singapore so there are minimal preservatives.
What else you need to know:
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 ā¦ 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.

What makes Clearly Basics different?
Weāve taken products that are often EXCLUSIVELY sold in a dermatologistās 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
What is the difference between Clear Out Extra Strength (COES) and the regular Clear Out?
People who have been using Clear Out can “graduate” to COES with minimal risk of irritation. Also people who have oily skin can start directly on COES if they have larger clogs to clear.
COES will differ in texture and color from the CO due to the different ingredients used. COES has a more fluid texture and a slight yellow tint due to the 2% salicylic acid.
How is Clear Out Extra Strength (COES) different from other products that claim to clear pores?
- USP Certified: COES is loaded with medical grade (USP certified) ingredients. While medial 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 our products are more effective.
- Multiple Actives: COES 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.

In what order do I apply the Trio?
DAY:
- Wash your face / apply toner.
- Lighten Up
- Hydrator, sunblock or other products you normally use
NIGHT
-
- Wash your face / apply toner
- Lighten Up
- Clear Out (can only be applied at night)
- Hydrator or other products you normally use
If there are products on this list that you normally do not use, just skip that step.
Can I use these products alongside my other skincare products?
If the Clear Out is too drying, most users will apply the Moisturizer after applying the Clear Out. If the 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 the Clear Out first before the Moisturizer.
Can I use these two products if I have sensitive skin?
Can I use the Power Duo on my back and body?
Can I use this product if I have oily skin?
What types of acne marks does the Lighten Up help?
If your post-acne scar has collected brown pigmentation due to UV exposure, we are currently working on an anti-brown scar formulation. This is anticipated to release by the end of 2019.
Please speak to your dermatologist concerning the correction of pitted or raised scars.
Can I use this product if I am trying to conceive, breastfeeding or pregnant?
If you are pregnant and you ingest the Clear Out, there is a minuscule chance that retinol could cause birth defects. As such, consult your doctor if using the Clear Out while pregnant.
The Clear Out can also be used by men in all stages of life.
I am getting new breakouts while using the 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 the Clear Out for rosacea, psoriasis, cystic or nodular acne?
Duo is not making any difference in my skin. Should I stop using it?
The Lighten Up should start to show noticeable results after six weeks of use. Make sure to take “before” photos to track your progress!
Will certain skin conditions make the purge worse?
Can I use 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 the 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 the Clear out, discontinue use.

Can I use the Clear Out along with my facial?
Do I need to constantly use this product once I start?

See what others have to say about Clearly Basics.
@amysacnehealing Yes I know the lighting is different but look at the difference in the texture š. Yes I still have acne, that hasnāt gone away however…the fact that my texture has improved has increased my confidence so much. I really do believe this is all down to @clearlybasics Iāve been using their power duo for about 3 weeks and Iāve noticed such a difference in the size of my acne spots…my face doesnāt hurt as much nor is as itchy as it was.
I would definitely recommend giving them a whirl itās the only products that I can honestly say has made any difference to my skin. The difference it has made in 3 weeks is fab!
@megdaviesx Iāve suffered with acne since I was 12 years old. Now at 25 I just accepted that Iād always have acne prone skin. When I came across Clearly, I had pretty much run out of hope, thinking āwell why the hell not give it a go!ā.
Only 2 months into my new routine, and I canāt believe this is my skin!! I am happy to go out of the house without makeup on but doing makeup isnāt a chore anymore either. My confidence has grown and I canāt believe I didnāt find Clearly sooner!
@clearupchels Guys after using clear out from @clearlybasics for over a month everyday I do truly believe itās made a MASSIVE difference. My face is smoother, tone is more even and I do think the stubborn spots are going quicker.
I payed for this myself and have not been asked to do this post, I just think If itāll help someone else why would I not shout about it!
@skinwithak @clearlybasics helped maintain my skin after oral prescription and honestly their products have helped so many, I get many DM’s thanking me for recommending Clearly Basics and how it’s helped them.
If I knew about @clearlybasics prior to my course of oral prescription I would’ve definitely gone with using Clear Out for sure!
@deannaskin Over the past month and a half Iāve noticed a massive change to the appearance and texture of my skin since using @clearlybasics. Honestly the most effective products (vegan of course) Iāve used all year. Not only has the redness of my spots reduced, but I rarely get painful under-the-skin bumps or huge whiteheads anymore. My scars have also faded so quickly š
If your skin is similar to mine Iād 100% recommend that you implement these products into your skincare routine.
Iām only a few weeks in using these products but the results have been so positiveš®š§š½āāļø
@startingtolovemyself āØNot a pimple in sight!!!āØ
Itās 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 itās from the Clear Out formula most of all!
It really is a miracle in a bottle! Iām excited to see how my skin changes even more in the next few weeks and months using them!
