Zits

If you’re browsing zits (acne) treatments, you’re usually looking for something that helps you manage occasional spots, reduce surface bacteria on minor skin concerns, and keep skin feeling comfortable without stripping it. This range focuses on practical, pharmacy-style options you can use at home — including antiseptic creams and liquids (often chosen for spots and minor skin concerns) as well as acne treatment creams for blemish-prone skin.

On this page you’ll find well-known UK brands and formats such as Savlon, Germolene, TCP Antiseptic Liquid, Sudocrem Antiseptic Healing Cream and Quinoderm 5% Acne Treatment Cream. Choose a format that fits where you’re using it (face vs body), how sensitive your skin is, and how often you can apply it as directed. As a UK based and regulated pharmacy, WithAid provides discreet Royal Mail delivery options, and you can speak to a pharmacist if you’re unsure what to pick.

Shop by zits type

Popular types of zits products

  • Antiseptic creams (tubes/tins) for minor skin concerns and spot-prone areas
  • Antiseptic liquids for cleansing support (some may require dilution)
  • Acne treatment creams (e.g., benzoyl peroxide formats) for blemish-prone skin
  • Barrier and soothing creams to support comfort on dry or irritated-feeling skin
  • Supportive skincare oils for dryness or the look of marks (check suitability for acne-prone skin)

How to choose the right option

  • Start with your main need: occasional spots, frequent breakouts, or irritated/dry-feeling skin all suit different approaches.
  • Pick a format you’ll use consistently: creams for targeted areas, liquids for cleansing support, and daily skincare for routine control.
  • Check the label for where it can be used: some products are not suitable near eyes, lips, or on broken skin.
  • Introduce active treatments gradually: stronger acne ingredients can be drying; reduce frequency if irritation develops.
  • Consider sensitivities and other medicines: review cautions for allergies, asthma sensitivity to strong antiseptics, or concurrent topical products.
  • Escalate when appropriate: painful, widespread, or scarring acne may need advice from a pharmacist or GP.

FAQs

What’s the difference between zits and acne?

“Zits” is a common term for spots or blemishes. Acne is the broader medical term that can include blackheads, whiteheads and inflamed spots. If breakouts are persistent or painful, it’s worth speaking to a pharmacist or GP about the best approach.

Are antiseptic creams suitable for spots?

Some antiseptic creams are commonly used on spot-prone areas as part of first-aid style skin care. Always follow the product directions, avoid the eyes, and stop using it if it stings, burns, or causes a rash.

What ingredients should I look for in acne treatment creams?

Products vary, but many acne treatment creams use ingredients such as benzoyl peroxide or other antibacterial/exfoliating actives. These can be drying for some people, so start slowly and use only as directed on the packaging.

Can I combine an acne cream with an antiseptic cream or liquid?

Using multiple actives at once can increase dryness and irritation. If you want to combine products, introduce one at a time, keep your routine simple, and consider asking a pharmacist for guidance based on your skin type and symptoms.

How long should I try an OTC routine before switching?

For mild breakouts, many people review their routine after a few weeks of consistent use. If acne is worsening, very inflamed, or affecting large areas (or if you’re developing scars), it’s sensible to seek advice sooner.

When should I speak to a pharmacist or GP?

Get advice if spots are severe, painful, spreading, or leaving scars, or if you suspect infection (increasing redness, warmth, swelling, pus) or have a significant reaction to a product. A clinician can advise whether prescription treatment is appropriate.

Can I use these products if I’m pregnant or breastfeeding?

Suitability depends on the specific ingredient and product. Check the label and ask a pharmacist or GP before starting new acne treatments during pregnancy or breastfeeding.


Safety notice: This information is for general guidance and does not replace medical advice. Always read and follow the product label and leaflet. If symptoms persist, worsen, or you’re concerned, speak to a pharmacist or contact your GP.
