			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Dr. Brandt Skincare is <strong>a product line that has several different targets</strong>. Some of the product are aimed at reducing wrinkles, others at fighting acnes, and some at reducing the pores. We’re going to focus on their acne reducing product lines. There are three main lines that are supposed to help with this. The first is a Pore no More line. This contains a cleanser, refiner, lotion, gel, and more to help unclog pores to give them a more minimized look. It is also supposed to control excess oil.</p>
<h2>What is Dr. Brandt Skincare?</h2>
<p>The next product line is called Blemishes no More. This product line also has several different products that are all supposed to work together to <strong>help fight acne causing bacteria and to sluff off dead skin cells</strong> in order to rid the skin of blemishes.</p>
<p>The last product line is an Inner Beauty line. This is meant to deal with several different skin issues, but has anti-oxidants that are supposed to help support health skin and control breakouts.</p>
<h2>Final Thoughts</h2>
<p>Each line has a different purpose, and the products are<strong> not bad products</strong>. However, they are all pretty generic. They contain the common acne ingredients, and do not seem to have anything special in them. If most generic products work for your skin then you will probably have success with this one too. However, if you’re looking for something stronger there are other products on the market that contain more than just your normal dose of salicylic acid. They may also be the same price as these <strong>over priced</strong> products.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Murad is a skin care brand that was founded by a board-certified dermatologist named Dr. Howard Murad. Dr. Murad is also a pharmacist and an Associate Clinical Professor of Medicine (emphasis on dermatology) at UCLA. Murad claims to be the first doctor-branded skin care company and apparently Dr. Murad still sees patients to this day despite his company’s immense success. Murad boast a couple of acne solutions but for the purposes of this review we will be focusing on the Murad Acne &#038; Wrinkle Reducer. This product is asserts that it “rapidly improves skin&#8217;s appearance by alleviating existing adult acne, preventing the development of new acne, and restoring collagen to more youthful levels.”</p>
<p>Ingredients are listed as Kombucha Collagen Defense, Salicylic Acid, Fermented Black Tea Coenzyme A, Glycine, Alanine, Proline, Serine, Threonine, Arginine, Lysine, and Glutamic Acid. Salicylic Acid is a common and useful anti-acne ingredient that can assist in clarifying the pores to eliminate the onset of future breakouts. Kombucha Collagen Defense aids in the regeneration of collagen which gives aging skin a boost in elasticity and can reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.</p>
<p>Without any clinical documentation of successful trials and with no way to access customer reviews we feel that we have very little with which to determine this products effectiveness. The ingredients seem sound enough but we don’t see any spark that would lead us to believe that this is an above average product. With a price tag of $58 we would suggest looking for a more proven product or, at least, a similarly composed product at a lower price. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Sold at retailers such as Macey&#8217;s and Nordstroms, the Clinique Acne Solutions  Clear System Kit has 3 pieces including a cleaning foam, a cleansing  moisturizer, and a clarifying lotion. It is based on salicylic acid and &#8220;natural  botanicals.&#8221; But those are the only ingredients named. However, when asked what  the ingredients were, the description included details about a formula that  would supposedly include a &#8220;mild, medicated, cleansing foam helps clear and  prevent acne. Removes dirt and excess oil. Unclogs pores. Calms redness, skin  feels soft, smooth, and comfortable.&#8221;</p>
<p>The thing we have found with Clinique products it that most people buy them  because they sell in big retailers. They never really reveal ingredients,  concentrations, or any other important information, and the Acne Solutions kit  is no exception. They provide only minimal information, including one ingredient  that most grocery store brands sell for about $10. There is no reason to believe  that Clinique Acne Solutions would be worth your investment.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Providing you with an AHA/BHA Complex, a botanical acne mask, cleansing  capsules, and a cleansing gel, Zenmed claims to offer organic solutions for your  acne problems, stimulating the healing process within your skin while cleansing  dead skin cells from the surface. Ingredients include glycolic acid, salicylic  acid, witch hazel, and chamomile among others. The capsules contain ingredients  like dandelion, chaste tree, forsythia, gardenia, honeysuckle, red dahlia, and  milk thistle.</p>
<p>Most of the ingredients in the pill have mild diuretic and possible cleansing  properties. Salicylic acid and glycolic acid could theoretically cause increased  healing and acne reduction in the skin. But the formula only uses 2% salicylic  acid. We would be significantly more impressed if it used 5% or 10%. 2% is not  nearly significant enough to produce results. The only ingredient that is  impressive besides that is witch hazel, and again, they do not actually provide  the quantities, making us wonder if they use such an insignificant amount as  they do with the salicylic acid.</p>
<p>The Zenmed Cleansing system sells for $99.95 for a month&#8217;s supply. We can&#8217;t  say what exactly they are charging you for, though we suspect it is largely the  packaging. There are no particularly powerful ingredients or concentrations in  this formula, and the likelihood is it will do nothing for your acne.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A hand held electronic device, Zeno is one of the most recent rage of acne  treatments. It works by heating the skin to 120 degrees for 2 minutes to kill  bacteria and improve the growth of proteins to reduce inflammation. So how do  you keep yourself from being severely burned considering the temperature is 120  degrees. They say you use replaceable tips, though we&#8217;re not sure how this is  supposed to protect the skin, being that they claim the skin itself is supposed  to be heated to that temperature.</p>
<p>The basic device is $150-$200, and the replacements for the tips range.  However, even the manufacturers admit this expensive solution does not work on  everything, and some even say it only works on extremely small blemishes, not  blackheads, whiteheads, scars, surface blemishes, basically all the things  you&#8217;re trying to get rid of. In addition, as we suspected, many have complained  about the heat and discomfort associated with Zeno, leaving a burning sensation  and commonly red marks. All things considered, we would be uncomfortable  recommending Zeno to anyone.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Claiming to be &#8220;the only non-prescription acne treatment proven to work in  medical studies&#8221;, Vitacure B5 must have forgotten about products based on benzyl  peroxide, salicylic acid, or tea tree oil. They also claim that it meets and  beats USP standards. The USP is the United States Pharmacopeia, which doesn&#8217;t do  anything. They have guidelines, not standards, and there is no way for them to  actually enforce or endorse any entity. While vitamin B5, otherwise known as  pantothenic acid, can cause acne as a sign of deficiencies, there are quite a  few others that can do the same thing, and deficiencies only account for some of  the common causes of acne. Vitacure B5 does not actually name any of the other  potential ingredients, leading us to believe they don&#8217;t have any. We would not  suggest this solution that only targets a small amount of the population, if  that.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>An acne pill in some ways comparable to Accutane, Vilantae is prescription  free and less expensive than some alternatives. It claims to reduce oil  production in the skin and prevent excess oils from being released. However,  many have complained that they experienced greater stool production, stomach  irritation, and headaches.</p>
<p>In addition, many have found that they actually experience an increase in  acne and not a reduction, which is the exact opposite effect from what people  are buying this product for. The suggested dose is 15 pills per day, which is  excessive for any product, and it also means you will be spending significantly  more money to get through the month. We would not suggest this product.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Comparable to Proactiv in some ways, Triclear uses a 3 step treatment plan.  The main difference between Triclear and Proactiv, the price tag. Triclear  charges you a &#8220;discounted&#8221; price of $69.95 for one month&#8217;s supply. Are you  kidding me? Why would you pay that much for a treatment that compared itself to  Proactiv when Proactiv is cheaper, and other imitators are even cheaper than  that!</p>
<p>Moreover, like many scams, Triclear does not actually provide any type of  ingredients list, and they don&#8217;t even bother naming supposed main ingredients.  What would motivate any buyer to purchase this product without any actual  information. I mean do you buy your prescription medications from some dirty guy  on the street who assures you they&#8217;re legit? Then why would you take that risk  with your acne treatment?</p>
<p>Triclear allows you 14 days for your &#8220;free trial offer&#8221; and then they start  shipping you that very expensive autoship program, which is extremely difficult  to cancel. This is probably because if they didn&#8217;t do something like this, no  one would actually continue to buy their product after the first time! If you  need more evidence, multiple users have reported actually breaking out when  using this particular formula. So if you really want to take the risk, go ahead.  But there are so many obvious signs with Triclear.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Formulated by leading pharmaceutical companies, Tretinoin functions under  several different names, however the main ingredient always remains the same. It  uses a form of vitamin A, and they use varying concentrations depending on the  name and on the needs of the consumer. The problem is that even with all the  irritation this product causes and its prescription status, Tretinoin takes 6-9  weeks to show results, that is if it works at all, and the side effects have  been reported to be extremely severe.</p>
<p>You can generally find Tretinoin at a cheaper price. But depending on the  concentration, you could pay anywhere from $40-$180 per 45 gram tube. You  obviously have to use it for at least 2 months if not longer, not really knowing  if it will work for you or not, and we would not recommend it with the side  effects. We would not suggest Tretinoin in various ways.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Calling itself the &#8220;next generation of skincare&#8221;, Thermaclear is a small hand  held machine that can be used on the face. It uses thermal pulse technology to  reach below the skin&#8217;s surface, heating the skin and reducing the buildup of  oils and sebum. The device itself costs $149.95, and each changeable tip costs  about $19.95. However, it does not work for cystic acne or  blackheads/whiteheads.</p>
<p>All in all, the heat ray is capable of burning the skin or causing discomfort  or irritation, and there is nothing to prove that it will actually target acne  at all. it is extremely expensive, and even those who have seen some success  didn&#8217;t see it any faster than the average pill, cream, or serum, suggesting that  it may have actually been the other treatment they were using that caused  results.</p>
