Indonesia's biggest acne word isn't acne.
It's “jerawat batu” — cystic acne, literally “stone acne”. 33,100 searches a month at an advertiser competition index of 6, and about 46,600 across the cluster — roughly three times the size of the blackhead cluster. Three Halal pads answer it, all ready to sample. 72h samples, MOQ from 3,000.
The cheapest acne entry on the Indonesian board.
Most Indonesian skincare keywords are contested. “Jerawat batu” is not: 33,100 searches a month at an advertiser competition index of 6 out of 100, at a cost-per-click of USD 0.11. It is the largest single acne term in the market and almost nobody is bidding against it. The demand is also stable rather than spiking — a permanent skin problem, not a format fad.
What Indonesia actually searches — and what it doesn't.
Every figure below was pulled on the same date, the same way, for Indonesia. The second half of the table is the part most suppliers will never show you.
| Indonesian search term | Meaning | Searches / month | Competition | CPC | Read |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| jerawat batu | Cystic / nodular acne | 33,100 | 6 — LOW | $0.11 | The head term. Biggest acne word in the market. |
| azelaic acid | (borrowed term) | 27,100 | 72 — HIGH | $0.14 | Up 49% YoY, but already contested. |
| eksfoliasi wajah | Facial exfoliation | 14,800 | 65 — MED | $0.05 | Format demand — pads fit here. |
| komedo | Blackheads | 14,800 | 12 — LOW | $0.06 | Cheap too, but a third the size of jerawat batu. |
| cara menghilangkan jerawat batu | How to get rid of cystic acne | 9,900 | 31 — LOW | $0.10 | High-intent long tail. |
| bruntusan | Closed comedones / bumpy skin | 9,900 | 3 — LOW | $0.15 | Lowest competition on the board. |
| pori pori besar | Enlarged pores | 9,900 | 19 — LOW | $0.07 | Adjacent pore demand. |
| masker komedo | Blackhead mask | 8,100 | 56 — MED | $0.03 | Mask format is alive here. |
| obat jerawat batu | Cystic acne remedy | 3,600 | 59 — MED | $0.07 | Pharmacy-intent tail — mind the claim line. |
| microneedle patch | Microneedle patch | 390 | 44 — MED | $0.04 | ⚠️ Thin. Not an Indonesian format. |
| plester komedo | Pore strip | 140 | 75 — HIGH | $0.03 | ⚠️ Almost nothing. Strips do not sell here. |
| acne patch | Acne patch | no data | — | — | ⚠️ Returned no volume at all. |

The honest version of this market.
We make patches. We are telling you not to start with them here.
Acne patch projects include hydrocolloid and microneedle routes. The chitosan dual-chamber patch has been developed; retail packaging details are being designed and confirmed, and technical details follow a signed NDA. The historical search-volume comparison below does not establish current product availability.
This market buys pads, masks, cleansers and toners. A patch SKU in your Indonesian launch deck will look modern and sell almost nothing. Put the patch in your US or Korea line, and put a pad in Indonesia.
The edge has to sit one layer deeper — in the material.
Indonesia's local contract-manufacturing (maklon) base is mature, and BPOM plus Halal certification is standard across it. We hold Halal, and it removes a blocker — but a supplier who pitches you Halal as their advantage in this market has not understood it.
What a local generalist usually cannot match is the substrate. YANSE COS converts marine chitosan, lyocell, bamboo, embossed cotton and dual-side textured pad materials in-house — the material range generalists outsource. So the honest rule is: if your brief is a standard niacinamide serum, buy it locally. If it is a chitosan barrier pad or a dual-textured acid pad, that is a material capability, and that is what we are for.
Three Halal pads ready to sample this week.
Each is a stocked, sampleable Halal base on an in-house pad substrate — pick the actives, the substrate and the pack, add your logo. No formulation lead time, and no patch in sight.
Salicylic Deep-Clean Pad
The congestion workhorse — a BHA swipe for oily, breakout-prone skin on a lyocell textured substrate. The everyday answer to the search behind “jerawat batu”, positioned as cosmetic care rather than treatment.
- ActiveSalicylic (to market limit)
- SubstrateLyocell / textured
- MOQfrom 3,000
- Sample72 hours
Azelaic + Niacinamide Pad
The SEA staple — azeloyl glycinate with niacinamide to even tone and control oil on a Halal base. Indonesian searches for azelaic acid run 27,100 a month and are up 49% year on year, so this is the SKU that rides an active the market already wants.
- ActivesAzeloyl + Niacinamide
- SubstrateEmbossed cotton
- MOQfrom 3,000
- Sample72 hours
Chitosan + Centella Barrier Pad
The one a local generalist cannot simply copy. Marine chitosan with centella on a lyocell/bamboo substrate, to calm the look of stressed, breakout-prone skin. Substrate-level capability, converted in-house — this is the reason to source outside Indonesia at all.
- ActivesChitosan + centella
- SubstrateLyocell / bamboo
- MOQfrom 3,000
- Sample72 hours
* All three positioned as cosmetic care for oily, congested-looking skin — no treatment or cure claims. Active percentages are dialled to the destination market's permitted level; tell us where you are notifying and we set the level and supply the dossier. Fragrance-free options, custom pad shapes, jar / sachet / travel-pack formats on request.
| Formulation | SKU | Actives | Substrate | MOQ | Sample | Job in an Indonesian range |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Salicylic Deep-Clean Pad | YSCC-5302 | Salicylic, to market limit | Lyocell / textured | from 3,000 | 72 hours | The volume hero — answers the head term directly |
| Azelaic + Niacinamide Pad | YSRC-8621 | Azeloyl glycinate + niacinamide | Embossed cotton | from 3,000 | 72 hours | Rides a 27,100/mo active that is up 49% YoY |
| Chitosan + Centella Barrier Pad | YSCC-5602 | Marine chitosan + centella | Lyocell / bamboo | from 3,000 | 72 hours | The material-layer differentiator — premium tier |
