3 acne treatment programs tried ... with promising results
Are you just plain sick and tired of your disgusting pimples that you are embarrassed to show or let alone let people discover? Then today's post is for you.
We are going to talk about safe acne treatments to review which ones work and what to avoid. Acne occurs when the hair follicle pores become blocked. The oil called sebum builds up inside the pore and becomes infected with bacteria. When the infection remains under the skin surface, it develops into a whitehead. When the infection partly reaches the surface and changes color, it develops into a blackhead.
What not to look for!
At this point, my main advice is don't get scammed! If you're dead set on buying some kind of acne treatment program, then take 5 minutes and read this article - we will try to enlighten you and save you from wasting your money.
There are so many web sites selling "magic" acne treatments, and they are likely push the product that makes them the most money - or they'll rate it No. 1 because of that reason. While behind the scenes, it's only No. 1 in terms of making money for them.
Do you really want to trust them?
Read this review and order whatever you want directly from the manufacturer. I have included direct links to the manufacturers websites.
The recent buzz on acne treatments
You're here because you're looking for acne treatment that will finally work, right? You don't want to waste your money, do you? Good ... so please read on.
Many of my readers have had their skin turn ugly with unsightly blackheads and spots, and have asked me what could I recommend to prevent further infection and return their skin to clear state ... and FAST! Nobody wants ugly skin that will gross out people when you go to school, office or just eat out.
So what should a person do?
The big buzz as of late in the acne skin care circles have been all natural organic treatments that help suppress infection from growing inside-out. Some of the ingredients used in newer acne treatments are Aloe Vera and Calendula Extracts.
Aloe vera has a long history as a safe, effective medicine and skin care aid. For over 6,000 years, people have benefited from the remarkable relief that the plant can bring to a wide range of ailments. The ancient Egyptians used Aloe to heal battle wounds and cure infections.
It's very different from older acne treatments that only that use harsh chemicals. There are some popular prescription and over-the-counter medications that work, but after a couple of days the blemishes come back and some of them dries out the skin, so that it was red and burning. Furthermore it is hard to find a treatment designed for body acne.
I don't know about you but I really don't trust big pharmacy companies to make health decisions for me especially if they are using artificial ingredients that have no basis in nature to treat a simple problem of acne infection.
So it's important to create an environment for the skin prevent acne infection from growing inside-out. Technically the infection appears when the oil called sebum is blocked inside the pore. Although you shouldn't even try to eliminate sebum from your body! When it isn't blocked in your pores, sebum helps keep your skin healthy. I'm not going to go into a lot of detail here about what sebum is and its basis in science - you can research that on your own if you want.
You are here looking for safe and effective acne solutions so what I am going to do is show you results from many months of acne treatments testing, on real clients, friends and people I know, and let you decide if these treatments are for you.
Why did I do this study?
As you probably already know, I work in a nail and skin salon, so I do a lot of pore cleansing, masks, hydrations and other skin procedures on my clients. I have the pleasure of meeting all kinds of great people in the salon - those with fabulously great skin, and those that need a lot of help!
Many of my friends and people that I know asked me about what works for blocked pores, and many were going to try various treatments regardless of what I told them, so I asked if I could document their results.
I actually had over 15 people on some kind of problem skin treatment last year. Some of the products they used ranged from traditional cheap over-the-counter medications to organic home remedies but I'm only going to cover a few of them here right now that we saw great results with.
The result you are about to see is what I consider pretty inspiring. A friend of mine followed every word I said and achieved spectacular results. He also given me permission to post his photos and story:
Wayne's Story
Wayne, 27 y.o., was one our best test cases in the treatment of problem skin and the inspiration behind today's post.
Wayne was avid runner and gym rat and was really worried about his recent skin problems. His girlfriend who I've done many facial treatments on dragged him into the salon and when I closely saw his blemishes I almost passed out.
Why do women always have to drag the man into seeing someone that could help them with their problems like a doctor???
Anyways back to Wayne ... We did some research on different acne treatments and acne skin care and we decided to use Clearasil to try and keep the pimples away and plus we heard some good things about it.
In the beginning we saw some initial good results. However Keith started noticing that some pimples are coming back, and the skin is dried up (see photo A) so we decided to switch to Plan B.
We started using the ClearPores product line and specifically we started with the ClearPores Deep Facial Wash. Within a couple of weeks Wayne noticed first results and after 3 months his acne was completely gone! The winning difference of ClearPores is that it is a complete system which includes washes, creams, and supplements. One wash is to unclog your pores, and another one is to protect the skin during the day from drying out and keeps the pores clear. Another important part of the system is the herbal supplements, which fight the acne from inside.
So around the 3th month of Wayne's treatment the results were pretty dramatic as you can see from the Picture B.
Wayne's healthy skin restoration was really encouraging. Keep in mind some of the downsides with ClearPores, at least what we found, was that ClearPores might not work for everyone. Also the price is bit higher compared to other "acne treatment solutions" on the market, especially those over-the-counter products.
To see results it will take around 3 months so if you break the price down for the 3 month package it is less than $1 a day ... so instead of getting a cafe latte from Starbucks you could just get a regular cup of coffee and the treatment would pay for itself. Better yet, skip coffee and drink green tea so you can get better overall health safely and naturally.
The other downside with ClearPores is that it is sold exclusively online at only a few websites so you will have to wait a few days before you can start the treatment.
The final results
I ran tests on over 15 different people, all with varying degrees of success. Of the three acne treatment products we tested, the results were pretty unanimous. Also all products come with a 100% money back guarantee.

I know what you feel. The three treatments that I've tested have virtually no side effects as they are very close to nature.
Laura says:
Hi, I just started with ClearPores and my acne is still there and seems to be getting worse. What should I do?
Acne Skin Answers says:
It can take up to a couple of weeks to start working. Initially you may have an outbreak but don't stop taking ClearPores! Your skin will clear up within several months, it is very important that you continue the program to get results.

I have taken Accutane and numerous supplements but had no relief from any of these. The side effects were horrendous, and later I was told of Accutane's damage to liver. I'm just scared now.
