Best Acne Skin Care Product

Anyone who hasn't seen me for any length of time usually has only one thing to say, "Boy does your skin ever look good", how did you get rid of that acne? And from those also suffering from acne skin problems, the next question nearly 100% of the time is "what is you secret?" Or "what is the best skin care product?" You see, I suffered from acne most of my teenage life and quite a few years into my adulthood. Therefore, anyone who had ever seen me always remembered the zits which covered majority of my face. However, thankfully over the years skin care products have improved significantly and helped me get rid of my hideous appearance.

While I have my favorite skin care products, it is not accurate to tell someone that this skin care product is the best and it will work for them. I know this all too well. I tried at least fifteen different products on the market before finding the one that really helped my skin look and feel attractive. The reason for this is not that these other products or acne treatments were bad; it's just that they didn't seem to agree with my particular skin type, oily some days while extremely dry others. It was almost as if my skin had a brain of its own and its sole purpose was to make me miserable. It succeeded for a lot of years in doing so.

My journey towards finding the best acne product started in my teens along with my mother at the local drug store. There were a huge number of products claiming to the best acne treatment lining the drug store shelf that it was nearly overwhelming to even pick one. My mother was a good sport; she read our names, descriptions and popular ingredients listed on the labels of number of different acne treatments. The most common ingredients being mentioned were Benzoyl Peroxide and Salicylic Acid. Mom suggested trying a cream containing Benzoyl Peroxide as she recognized this term from hearing it from her friend at work. So we bought it.

I tried it for several weeks with some improvements but nothing to really brag about. So over the next few years I experimented with different forms and strengths of Benzoyl Peroxide, gels, creams, liquids, etc you name it, I tried it (2%, 5% etc, etc). While the results weren't exactly what I had hoped for, his got me through my teen years and college years with a half decent complexion.

It wasn't until after my college years that I tried acne treatment products comprised of combination of herbal supplement capsule and cream containing Salicylic Acid that I truly found the best skin care product for me. I found this combination approach to the best. The salicylic acid was gently on my skin and really gave it that radiant glowing look. The herbal supplements which were also part of the regimen worked hard to keep my insides balanced and regulated.

For me, the best skin care product, especially when it comes to treating acne is Clearpores which consists of herbal supplements and salicylic acid.
