Thai Actor-Singer Perth Tanapon First Appearance in Malaysia for the Launch of La Roche-Posay Effaclar Supramolecular

La Roche-Posay unveils Effaclar Supramolecular, its newest range for oily skin and enlarged pores, launched in partnership with Watsons at Mid Valley Megamall. 

The launch took place last Friday at Mid Valley Centre Court, where guests were invited into an afternoon built around understanding the science, not just seeing the product, including dermatologist-led education and a myth-busting panel discussion with Dr Shaaira, addressing some of the most common misconceptions around oily skin. Guests were also joined by Thai actor-singer Perth Tanapon, marking his first-ever appearance in Malaysia.

For many, oily skin is a daily routine of its own: shine by mid-morning, visible pores by lunchtime, and the familiar reach for a blotting sheet. It's made harder by the fact that many of the most effective ingredients for oil, salicylic acid chief among them, have traditionally been difficult to formulate gently, with most solutions leaning on more power to compensate rather than solving the root cause efficiently.

At the heart of Effaclar Supramolecular is a patented technology called Supramolecular SA.B3 Technology, that temporarily bonds two familiar skincare ingredients: Salicylic acid and Vitamin B3 (or known as Niacinamide). Salicylic acid has long been one of skincare's most trusted oil-fighters. Vitamin B3 is valued for its anti-inflammatory properties and calming the skin, but like many actives, it needs the right conditions and formulation to work at its best.

Supramolecular SA.B3 solves both problems at once. The two ingredients are temporarily bonded together, enabling both to travel deeper into the skin with controlled release as it travels into the pores. Bonded this way, salicylic acid works at full strength in a formula that's gentle on skin, and vitamin B3 stays protected long enough to actually take effect, allowing the formula to work at the source of oil production. 

The Effaclar Supramolecular comes as a simple 2-step routine: 

1. Step one is the Effaclar Supramolecular Cleanser, which gently exfoliates and clears away excess oil, dirt and impurities; 93% agreed their pores appeared less visible within four weeks, and every person surveyed agreed their skin looked less shiny in the same period³. 
2. Step two is the Effaclar Supramolecular Oil & Pores Correct, a gel moisturiser that visibly tightens pores from the very first wipe¹, with a 45% drop in excess oil that holds through 12 hours². 

It's the kind of results that show up quickly enough to believe, and gently enough to become part of a daily routine, opening the door to anyone dealing with shine, texture or visible pores, whether or not acne is part of the picture.
