About Acne Club

Acne Club is an independent skincare publication focused on making skincare and beauty more accessible for people with acne-prone skin, with research-led articles that take acne seriously.

Who’s behind it

My name is Audra Martyn. I’m an American writer and content strategist based in France. I have acne-prone skin myself, which is what drew me to this topic, but Acne Club is not a personal blog. Every article is grounded in published research and dermatological consensus rather than personal anecdote.

I understand the impact that acne can have on your confidence and overall well-being, and I know the struggle of finding appropriate skincare and beauty recommendations for acne-prone skin. I have had many breakouts from using popular and hyped products that in hindsight, were not appropriate for my skin type. 

I want to provide you with the information you need to make informed decisions about your skincare routine and to help you find the products that work best for your skin type and budget.

Editorial approach

Articles on Acne Club are written after reviewing published clinical research, ingredient databases, and established dermatological guidance. Product recommendations are based on a deep dive into the formulation and documented user outcomes, not on brand relationships or sponsored placement.
