OTC Acne Solutions: AcneFree Severe Acne Treatment System

AcneFree Severe Acne Treatment System claims to be "significant better, faster and 4x more potent and powerful than ProActiv". Now that's saying a lot because as we all know, ProActiv is a popular OTC acne treatment, with celebrities and other famous people endorsing the product. To say that you can deliver better results than something as popular and well-advertised can put you in a very bad light if you don't match people's high expectations.  But it seems, this product is up for the challenge, boasting of maximum strength time-released 10% Benzoyl Peroxide and Retinol , a tried and tested formula that continuously (meaning 24/7) attacks the three levels of severe acne formation . These three (3) levels or stages are: Overproduction of an oily substance called sebum by the skin glands. Blockage of pore caused by the accumulation of dead skin cells. Skin bacteria attack, breaking down the sebum & cells within the pore, which leads to the inflammati...

OTC Acne Solutions: Clarisonic Plus System & Spot Therapy Kit For Face and Body

This is what people is saying about Clarisonic Plus System & Spot Therapy Kit For Face and Body : "The Clarisonic Plus utilizes the same technology as the Sonicare toothbrush.

OTC Acne Solutions: Neutrogena Advanced Solutions Complete Acne Therapy System

It seems after ProActiv came out with their acne treatment system , more similar products follow suit and are even pitching themselves as " better than ProActiv ". Either ProActiv was really effective or really popular, and they are banking on it to catch people's attention. One such anti-acne system is Neutrogena Advanced Solutions Complete Acne Therapy System . Neutrogena is a popular line of skincare products and the brand alone is enough advertisement already.  But the question is, is it really better? Most of us know that Salicylic Acid and Benzoyl Peroxide are two of the top anti-acne active ingredients that are used to treat acne. Salicylic Acid declogs the pores, neutralizes the bacteria that causes acne and promotes skin peeling while Benzoyl Peroxide is an effective antibacterial compound that can zap pimples instantly. A lot of anti-acne products contain either one of the two, but rarely both. And that's the gap that Neutrogena's Advanced Soluti...
