This powerful cream penetrates deep into the skin, loosens existing comedones, exfoliates the skin, regulates sebum production, and balances the skin to prevent new breakouts.

Important information
NOTE! As this is a strong product, we do not recommend purchasing it unless you have previously used our products. Instead, we recommend our starter kits, which provide clear instructions on how to use the product. Activator 5 may bleach textiles.
Why should I use Activator?
Activator is perfect for getting rid of skin problems and preventing them from appearing again. By using this deep-acting treatment, you can effectively reduce excess sebum production, keeping pores clean and preventing future breakouts. The serum exfoliates the skin and absorbs excess oil, helping to prevent clogged pores and eliminating the bacteria that cause acne and inflamed pimples. Its treating properties reduce redness and irritation while balancing the skin in cases of rosacea, giving you a clearer and healthier complexion.
How should I use Activator?
Time-specific
Use Activator every third or fourth night according to your recommended skincare routine. Start by thoroughly cleansing your skin, then apply a thin layer of the serum directly to problem areas where you have or tend to develop skin problems. The product works just as well on the face as it does on the chest and back. Allow the serum to work as part of your skincare routine, giving the deep-acting ingredients time to treat the skin effectively. With regular use, Activator helps to efficiently treat and prevent skin problems.

Incredibly fast delivery, first of all, and I truly feel that the products live up to their promise. I use them to keep my oil production in check since I have oily skin, and I haven't had the same issues since I started using their scrub soap and face cream.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need to use this every fourth day or is once a week enough?
Activator is recommended to be used every third or fourth night according to your personal skincare routine. Using the product only once a week does not provide sufficiently consistent treatment to achieve optimal results. For best effect, you should follow the instructions given by your skin therapist based on your skin's needs and condition.
How long does it take before I see results?
Results can vary depending on the severity of your skin problems, but typically an improvement is visible within 1-3 weeks. The skin's condition will then continue to improve gradually, but exactly how long it takes varies depending on the skin's condition and its unique circumstances. Keep in mind that the products do not cure skin problems, but they help keep them under control as long as you continue to use them.
Is the consultation free?
Yes, our consultations are always free so you can get the guidance you need to choose the right method for you. When you have a consultation with us, you get a personal skin therapist who becomes your contact throughout the journey. You can chat with your skin therapist via your profile and get the help you need to achieve your results.
Who answers the consultations?
All our consultations are answered by certified skin therapists with experience and expertise in skin problems such as acne, rosacea, pimples, combination skin, and perioral dermatitis.
Will I get a personalized skincare routine?
Yes, your skin therapist will create a customized skincare routine for you to follow step by step. The routine can be adjusted over time depending on how your skin reacts, and you can easily discuss adjustments with your personal skin therapist via your profile.
Can I combine products from different brands?
We recommend that you use only DAHL Skincare products to avoid potential complications and to be able to follow your skin's development clearly. If you have products left from other brands, we recommend that you use them up first and then switch to DAHL Skincare for best results.
Who is DAHL Skincare suitable for?
DAHL Skincare is suitable for anyone with skin problems, regardless of age or gender. Our products are designed to effectively treat problems such as acne, rosacea, comedones, pimples, combination skin, and perioral dermatitis.
What skin problems can DAHL Skincare help with?
DAHL Skincare targets a range of skin problems including acne, pimples, rosacea, comedones, perioral dermatitis, combination skin, and seborrhea. We also treat specific variants such as adult acne and teenage pimples.
Can I use DAHL Skincare even if I have mild problems?
Yes, DAHL Skincare is suitable for both mild and more severe skin problems. Our products come in different strengths, so you can customize your routine to your specific needs.
How often should I use the products for best results?
For best results, it is important to follow the specific instructions for each product, as well as the advice you receive from your skin therapist. Use the products according to the specified routine and adjust as needed in consultation with your therapist.
Is DAHL Skincare suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes, DAHL Skincare is suitable for sensitive skin, but it is important to accustom the skin to the products gradually. Your skin therapist will guide you through the process and adjust the routine to ensure your skin reacts positively.
Are there any side effects I should be aware of?
Initial reactions such as redness and tightness may occur when you start using the products, especially if your skin is unaccustomed to result-oriented skincare. These reactions are normally temporary and decrease as the skin gets used to the products.
How long do the products last?
Our products have a shelf life of at least 12 months after they have been opened. It is important to store them properly to preserve their effectiveness.
Can I use DAHL Skincare if I am pregnant or breastfeeding?
We recommend that you consult your midwife before using DAHL Skincare products if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, to ensure they are safe for you and your baby.
What should I do if I don't see any improvements?
If you don't see any improvements in your skin, contact your skin therapist or our customer service immediately. We will review your routine and make necessary adjustments to ensure you get the best possible results.
Can I use the products together with medical treatments for acne?
We recommend that you do not mix our products with medical treatments for acne without first consulting your doctor. If medical treatments have not worked, you can try our method that focuses on treating skin problems where they occur.
Are the products tested on animals?
No, our products are not tested on animals and are completely cruelty-free.
How should I store the products to make them last longer?
Store the products in a dark and cool place, such as in the bathroom cabinet. If you want them to last extra long, for example if you are taking a break from treatment, you can store them in the refrigerator.
Do you offer international shipping?
Yes, we offer shipping to most countries worldwide.
What payment methods do you accept?
We accept several payment options for your convenience, including Klarna, Apple Pay, Google Pay, card payments, and PayPal.
