Klear action acne treatment

September 2nd, 2009 Comments off

Klear action acne treatment is not just one treatment, it is more of a “system”.

This system has one thing going for it at least, it costs roughly 20 dollars, which is cheap for any acne treatment, let alone a commercial acne system. You can buy it online if you are interested.

The effectiveness of this acne treatment system has been hit or miss for most people from what I have heard, but it has worked to an extent with most. Another big plus is that it works fairly quick as well, no waiting several days or even weeks to see any improvement in your skin.

Klear action treatment only has a few cons. The first is that you really can’t afford to miss a day on this “system” if you do, you are in trouble and you will likely be able to notice a difference in your skin. The last is that it is not the best smelling product, but big deal!

Give this treatment a try, it is certainly worth the price.

St ives apricot scrub

September 2nd, 2009 Comments off

Saint Ives apricot scrub is an extremely cheap, safe, effective acne product for the most part, which is why I am a pretty big fan of it.

Like I mentioned in the paragraph above, this scrub is very cheap, it should cost you between 3-5 dollars at the most, which is crazy! You can buy it online or in stores such as target and walmart. Considering this treatment costs roughly one tenth of what other treatments do, it can work half as well as other treatments and still be a great deal.

One side effect is that this Apricot scrub literally makes your skin glow after use, this could be a good thing or a bad thing depending on who you are and what your preferences are. From what I hear, St Ives scrub is not the best smelling acne fighting product in the world, but I don’t think that that is a big deal.

It’s really cheap and there are no real “con’s” to this product, give it a try!

Bye bye blemish drying lotion review

September 2nd, 2009 Comments off

Bye bye blemish is an “as seen on tv” acne product. Most of us know that “as seen on tv” products that are promoted via infomercialls never really work, but I’ll try to keep an open mind as I review this product.

The best part about the product is its price. Even if it doesn’t work or if it has side effects, it will not be that big of a waste because it only costs between 5-10 dollars, which is very reasonable to say the least. You really do not have to pay more than 20 dollars for a high quality acne treatment these days, just because the price is higher does not mean that the quality of the product is any better.

As the name of the product would indicate, bye bye blemish drying lotion is a drying lotion! If you have pre existing dry skin, stay away from this product, it will just make your situation worse, this should be common sense people!

If you are curious about the product, give it a try because it is cheap, but overall I am not a huge fan of this.

Biore strips for acne

September 2nd, 2009 Comments off

One of the main causes of acne is clogged pores, Biore stips could potentially help you.

There are several different types of biore strips. “Skin preservation” is targeted more at the older crowd that is trying to do away with wrinkles and other fun stuff that goes along with aging. “Daily recharging” is a strip that is good for helping your skin keep up with the elements. “Complexion clearing” is more of what us acne sufferers are looking for.

The reviews I have heard and seen about Biore strips have been pretty positive for the most part. Do not expect a dramatic increase in your complexion overnight by any means, but Biore strips should help your facial complexion at a reasonable price with little to no side effects, which is all you can really ask for in an acne product.

You have nothing to lose, Biore is a well established skin care company and the strips are a pretty good value overall.

Panoxyl Peroxide gel

September 1st, 2009 Comments off

If you are looking for an acne product that is very cheap, very effective, and has little to no serious side effects, Panoxyl Peroxide gel may be what you are looking for.

Like I mentioned earlier, Panoxyl Peroxide gel is very cheap, it is usually readily available for 4 to 5 dollars for a huge supply of the treatment. That is unheard of! This is probably the cheapest product that I have reviewed that is meant to treat acne only.

This is not a miracle treatment by any means, but Panoxyl Peroxide gel is a solidly effective acne treatment. You can expect noticeable results fairly quickly from the treatment at the very least.

There are no real side effects from Panoxyl Peroxide treatment, which is a huge plus. You may notice slight drying of the skin, but that is no big deal and it is by far the most common side effect from acne treatments.

Overall I would give Panoxyl Peroxide gel an A rating. It is very cheap, safe, and effective and it is definitely worth a try at the very least.
