PanOxyl Acne Spot Treatment 10% Benzoyl Peroxide Review

Friday, January 15th, 2010

PanOxyle is an acne post treatment that is designed for people who need maximum strength control. This product has in it the active ingredient Benzoyle Peroxide, which is often used to penetrate the pores of the skin.

It also clears all acne problems and helps prevent new blemishes form occurring. This is a product that is probably recommended for people whose skin is oily or normal versus dry.

If a person with dry skin uses it, or a person with sensitive skin, it could cause irritation or rash. It could in this case also worsen the acne because the natural protective layer of the skin is then stripped off.

However, a person who has either oily or even normal skin probably can use it for the face as well as the chest and neck areas. In any case, it should be kept away from the eyes, lips, and mouth.

Warnings

In addiction to redness or irritation PanOxyl can cause skin peeling in some individuals. Burning, itching, or swelling could occur as well. The way to combat these potential problems would be to use less of this product at a time.

The most important warning of all is this: Do NOT swallow! If you do, especially if you react to it, get medical help immediately. Call the poison center too, if necessary. Even if you do not notice a reaction you should still seek help right away incase of delay reactions.

Witch Hazel: A Natural Skin Astringent Review

Friday, January 8th, 2010

With hazel is a natural substance that helps cleanse the skin. Using this product typically helps unclog the pores without using an expensive skin care line.

However, how well does it really work? Does it help everyone or just some people? These are some very important questions to answer about this natural, simple acne clearing solution.

Pros

This product helps keep the pores clean. It also helps reduce dark spots, pimples, and other blemishes. It also works well for clearing up oily skin and keeping proper balance. It also has a toning effect, and evens the complexion.

Unlike alcohol-based astringents witch hazel does not have as much tendency to cause dryness. Furthermore, it is a product that is very easy to use. It can be applied with a cotton ball, or splashed on with your hands.

You might be able to find a gentle facial scrubbing pad to use with it. This remedy is probably quite a bit cheaper than most used today to clear the skin. At the same time, it also has a very pleasant smell, or at least some people think so.

It has an antiseptic affect as it helps remove bacteria and debris from skin pores. This further keeps your face clear and smooth.

Cons

It may not work on very severe cases of acne, or for removal of cysts. Clearing the skin if pimples and whiteheads takes considerably loner than using other treatments. It may not be appropriate for people with very dry skin.

It is not suited for people with very sensitive skin, as it could redden the skin and even could cause rashes. It might also sting the skin if you have any open sores on your face. However, it is milder than other natural substances.

Although some people like the smell of it, not everyone does. To each one’s own.

Carley’s Clear & Smooth Skin Treatment Review

Friday, January 1st, 2010

Carley’s Clear & Smooth is a skin treatment you may not have yet heard about. However, that does not mean it is a “bad” product. In fact, consumers have given this product some very positive reviews, and of course pointed out its flaws.

Pros

It works well for skin problems that occur during rare times. One consumer says, “Works fine for me.” This person known as Anono has trusted this product for two years.

Furthermore, it is a great scrub. It gently exfoliates the skin. It works well for clearing acne and moisturizing the skin and clears acne as you commit to a regular cleansing regimen.

The corresponding daytime moisturizer also works wonders. One person who has used this product for four years says, “I couldn’t be happier.” Another person who used it for over two years was also very pleased.

Cons

One of the only “cons” is not really a “con” at all. One person who tried this product just wished it was made before wasting money on another product called Accutane. Oh well, that is the way things goes, but at least this person did find the right solution eventually.

Furthermore, some people who have used to broke out terribly. Carley’s is a product that also made people’s skin oily, or sometimes just did not plain work.

Furthermore, one person who used it says, “I think your skin gets immune to it and it stops working.” This person had found some use for it, but not as much as others would.

Tips

In order to make the most of this product you should just find out what is your skin type before using it. That will ensure that it is right for you. It is more of a moisturizing agent, so it probably would be more appropriate for people with dry or combination skin.
