No More Acne No More Acne

No More Acne with Oceanik Clay is 100% natural. Is that important to you?

Oceanik Clay has been clinically tested by The Natural Health Research Foundation in Fort Collins, Colorado. Dr Mark Higgins, a Certified Homeopath, has subjected Oceanik Clay to thorough clinical tests. Upon completion of his testing, Dr. Higgins said "we have been surprised at the results in our tests. Even in the most severe cases, Oceanik Clay has proven extremely effective. We see many patients with annoying oily skin, pimples and blackheads. We are excited that a natural solution has finally been found". If what Dr. Higgins has spoken about works for you, would you be excited too?


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Oceanik Clay was formed centuries ago when most of the present North American landmass was under the sea. As the micro-organisms and sea-life died, the elements from these living organisms fell to the bottom of the ocean, forming deposits. The sea then receded and the North American land mass rose through volcanic action. The earth buckled, exposing these naturally occurring ancient seabed’s and pushing Oceanik Clay deposits to the surface.

No More Acne is formed from nature’s heart, full of vital minerals for therapeutic cleansing and skin beautification. When mixed and applied, No More Acne will actually start turning green. This will be an indication that the oxidation and circulation process has taken place to beautify your skin. As we age, our skin loses its ability to retain oxygen. This results in a dull, lifeless appearance. By cleansing and purifying with No More Acne, the skin’s ability to use and retain vital oxygen is increased. This creates a fresh, clean environment for the skin, and acts as a catalyst for the transportation of micronutrients contained in No More Acne to the deeper levels of the skin. An individual is left with a more youthful, vibrant appearance. Isn't that a great fringe benefit?

No More Acne is loaded with a higher amount of micro-nutrients than anything of its kind in the industry and is recommended for all skin types. It has a demonstrated dramatic effect on even the most severe acne conditions. It's micronutrients will remineralize, hydrate and exfoliate. It removes dead skin cells, reoxyginating the skin, detoxifies, and effectively removes the bacteria breeding ground for acne problems. It will tighten skin and pores, cleanse and create an unusually smooth skin surface. In addition to being beneficial for teenage and adult acne it is also good for sagging and sallow skin, fine lines and wrinkles and general overall skin health. Is that what you are looking for from an Anti Acne Product?

MagicClear

Tried everything for acne and nothing works?
Then you haven't tried MagicClear, IT WORKS!
MagicClear works where other treatments have failed.

The MagicClear system consists of a few simple steps each day and you can be on your way to a smoother, clearer, more radiant complexion.

MagicClear System :

Foaming Facial Cleanser
Acne, Treatment Crème
Oil-Free Moisturizer

MagicClear is formulated with powerful but gentle anti-bacterial agents, designed to penetrate below the skins surface, kill the bacteria that breed inside the hair follicle (the cause of infection), dissolve the hardened sebum and flush it out. When the hair follicles are clear and the bacteria has been destroyed, this allows the skin to heal. MagicClear does not dry the skin, it does not work by drying ... It works by Penetrating, Eliminating, Dissolving and Flushing.

WHAT CAUSES ACNE?
It's caused by an over production of oil, the irregular shedding of dead skin cells, and the build up of bacteria. A pimple forms when the oil glands in the skin are blocked. Normally the lining of the duct sheds cells that are carried to the surface of the skin by sebum. When the duct is blocked cells and sebum have accumulated forming a plug.

Inside the oil gland lives a bacterium. It lives in the follicular canals of the sebaceous (oil secreting) glands. This bacteria releases enzymes that break down the natural oils into irritating fatty acids, these enzymes increase the permeability of the follicular canals causing these irritating substances within the pores to leak into surrounding healthy tissue, causing the condition to spread.

UNTREATED ACNE
Can leave lifelong scars that can effect one's self image. It is important to give your skin care while acne is still in the beginning stages, before it takes over your face, becomes out of control and physical scarring occurs.

Over the counter acne medications treat only the top layer of skin with drying agents. They dry out the skin and do little if anything, to improve your skin's condition because they don't treat the cause of the problem.

At last the pores in the skin are clear and the oil from the sebaceous glands can flow freely to the surface now without blockage. This allows the skin to heal and by maintaining this clear condition ... your skin can remain clear, NO MORE ACNE, PIMPLES OR BLACKHEADS.

IN ONE WEEK, YOU COULD BE CLEAR
Some people with mild non-inflammatory skin disorders experience dramatic results the very first week. More severe conditions will take longer.


Clear HEALTHY SKIN Begins with 3 Simple Steps...

EASY TO USE
Use MagicClear on your face daily.

Before bedtime cleans your face with the Foaming Facial Cleanser

While face is still moist apply Acne Treatment Crème to pimple(s) or problem area(s).

Massage lightly into skin, allow to dry. Leave on overnight.

Remove Acne Treatment Crème next morning using the Cleanser.
Rinse thoroughly with warm water.

Apply MagicClear Oil-free Moisturizer, avoid blemishes.

CLEANLINESS
A very important factor to remember in treating acne, cleanliness is essential. Keep your hair clean, wash it daily, keep it off face and shoulders.

USE MAGICCLEAR ON BACK SHOULDERS OR CHEST
Wash back, shoulders and chest daily with a soft back brush apply the Foaming Facial Cleanser, then rinse off and apply the MagicClear acne crème to moist back, leave on for ten to fifteen minutes. It works very effectively in these areas.

BE CONSISTENT
Be consistent in your routine each day, it's very important. We know our product works, now it is up to you to use it correctly for it to work effectively. Follow the instructions and don't give up if you don't see immediate results. Have faith and stick to it, each individual is different. Don't skip days and you will start to see positive results.

Warning: As with any drug, if you are pregnant or nursing a baby, seek the advice of a health care professional before using this product.

The natural ingredients in Elicina® and their healing properties:

Natural Antibiotics that work directly on the skin to stop the growth of germs. (These natural antibiotics can be applied without a prescription under no risk, and they produce no allergic reaction.) They have been proven effective against different types of bacteria commonly found in skin infections, such as: Escherichia Coli, Staphylococcus Aureus, Pseudomona Aeruginosa and P. Acne.

Glycolic Acid in a natural form, gets rid of dead cells, helps to open pores and clears the sebum that obstructs the skin follicles where bacteria finds it's feeding The obstruction leads to swelling and the development of blackheads, whiteheads or tender red lumps. The blemishes will go away when the follicles are clear and free of the materials and germs blocking them.

Allantoin. It makes the regeneration of tissues possible. The SNAIL has the capacity of regenerating its own body and shell if broken by using calcium, obtained through his diet and the action of Allantoin. It is also an antioxidant, which helps fight off free-radicals, the scavengers that damage the skin and speed the aging process.

Collagen helps improve the tissue's underlying foundation and it contributes to it's hydration promoting a youthful tone and moisture carrying capacity. It also keeps those "growing older" signs at bay.

Elastin fibers are responsible for elasticity, improved tone and moisture carrying capacity of your skin.

Proteins & Vitamins obtained by the SNAIL'S diet, rich in vegetables. They improve skin texture by strengthening the tissue and helping to encourage antioxidant protection against the visible signs of aging. Vitamins work as a lightener and brightener and stimulate collagen production, are a natural anti-inflammatory and assist in the reversal of sun damage.

Elicina® is the SNAIL Helix Aspersa Muller's natural secretions with added safe excipients to make it into a cream. It's biological ingredients are compatible and match up to what is already in the skin. Your body will recognize these substances and will utilize them, bolstering your skin's ability to repair itself. And because the ingredients are all bio-compatible, there is no risk of a sensitive/allergic reaction.

Proactiv Solution 

Acne can't be cured, with or without a prescription. Even after blemishes disappear, you must continue to use an effective acne treatment to keep new blemishes from forming. Drs. Rodan and Fields have created a breakthrough way to treat acne safely and effectively. Combination Therapy™ uses several different medicines in one system to heal the blemishes you have now and help keep new ones from forming.


Proactiv® Solution is a Combination Therapy™ acne management system—it combines prescription-grade ingredients that work together to heal and prevent acne. Developed by two Stanford-trained dermatologists, this unique acne fighting system combines finely milled Benzoyl Peroxide, sulfur, and our special formulation. Together, these ingredients gently exfoliate your skin, unplug your pores, attack acne-causing bacteria, and soothe inflammation.


Many of the acne medications you buy at the store are "spot treatments," designed primarily to get rid of existing pimples with harsh creams that can cause redness or irritation. Doctor-developed Proactiv® Solution heals, hydrates, and soothes your entire face with botanicals like allantoin, panthenol, aloe and chamomile. It gets rid of existing acne—and it proactively helps prevent future breakouts before they even surface on your skin.


Proactiv® Solution's unique formulations work together to knock out acne in 3 easy steps:
Renewing Cleanser: gently exfoliates your pores and allows the Benzoyl Peroxide to penetrate.
Revitalizing Toner: helps unclog your pores, remove dead skin cells, and fade brown spots.
Repairing Lotion: allows penetration of Benzoyl Peroxide deep into your pores to attack acne-causing bacteria at the source.

Sodium sulfacetamide

DESCRIPTION

Sodium sulfacetamide is an antibiotic with antibacterial activity against the bacteria that typically causes acne while sulfur acts as a keratolytic agent.

CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY FOR ACNE TREATMENT

The most widely accepted mechanism of action of sulfonamides for acne treatment is the Woods-Fildes theory which is based on the fact that sulfonamides act as competitive antagonists to para-aminobenzoic acid (PABA), an essential component for acne bacterial growth.

The mode of action of sulfur in the treatment of acne is reported to include inhibiting the growth of P. acnes (the bacteria that typcially causes acne) and the formation of free fatty acids.

Acne-Ltd III

Acne-Ltd III is a new, topical treatment that will help to improve your acne skin condition. The unique thing about Acne-Ltd III is that it kills bacteria, viruses, parasites, and fungi only in the areas to which you apply it, instead of killing beneficial bacteria throughout the body -- as many other acne medications such as antibiotics do. The ingredients of Acne-Ltd III are zinc oxide, sodium chloride, manganesium sterate, polyethylene glycol, iron oxide and sulfur (sulfur is used externally only and not to be confused with sulfa which is taken internally only). These ingredients are compressed under 22,000 pounds of pressure per square inch into a very concentrated smooth form for easy application to the facial skin areas. Acne-Ltd III is highly concentrated. Leave the face wet after washing and apply Acne-Ltd III. By simply gliding the Acne-Ltd III application over the affected areas, the ingredients are dissolved onto the affected areas, leaving an invisible film that continues to treat the area even though the product is unnoticeable on the skin. Acne-Ltd III can be sold and mailed to any country of the world.

Acne-Ltd III battles your acne with a comedolytic (blackhead-eliminating) action. It dehydrates and drains the pores, thus preventing new pimples from forming. Unlike most acne medications, which leave the skin dry and irritated, Acne-Ltd III contains an anti-bacterial agent that moisturizes the skin while fighting bacteria.

Greenlee Powerwash for Acne

So you've got acne. It's not your fault and there is something you can do about it.

Interested? Then read on:

The "root cause" of acne is extreme hormonal changes that take place in your body once you're past puberty. In both males and females these hormonal changes are necessary to make your body grow properly. In males, these shifts in body chemistry continue into the late teens then, once body growth has been achieved, they even out into a rhythm that will continue during your mature years. In females the hormonal changes moderate once you're fully grown. But your body chemistry - as compared to that of a man - is a roller coaster of hormonal changes that will continue until you have passed child-bearing years.

These hormonal changes during the "teen" years of both males and females trigger changes in the oil producing glands in your skin to the point that they over-produce and clog pores which, in turn, are infected by bacteria. The result is acne. In the case of females past the teen years the changes in body chemistry produce the annoying 'zits' that frequently precede menstrual periods.

Wash your face at least twice and preferably three times daily. Acne Powerwash is a liquid. Squeeze about as much into the palm of your hand as would fill the top of a golf tee. Then, with both hands, gently work Acne Powerwash into your facial tissues. Wait at least a full minute before using both hands to rinse your face using warm water.

Don't look for an instant, miracle cure. It will take between two and three weeks for Powerwash to do its work although you'll see steady improvement along the way. Thereafter, continue to use Powerwash on a routine basis to control your acne.

M.D. Forté

    To understand the treatment of acne, and specifically the role of glycolic acid, one must have an elementary knowledge of the structure of skin.

    The diagram to the right shows a cross section of skin. The skin is made up of three layers, the epidermis, dermis, and the subcutaneous tissue. It is the outermost layer of skin, the epidermis, that we want to concentrate on. This outermost layer is made up of individual flat cells(called squamous cells) that actually are layered, one on top of the other. Newly produced squamous cells are made deep along the border of the dermis and gradually push the older cells outward. As this outer layer becomes thicker, the oldest cells eventually die. This new, outermost, layer of dead cells becomes a specific anatomic layer called the stratum corneum. GLYCOLIC ACID HAS ONE FUNCTION AND THAT IS TO DISSOLVE AND ELIMINATE THIS OUT LAYER OF DEAD SQUAMOUS CELLS!!! In fact, glycolic acid was initially patented for use in the early 1980s as purely a cosmetic tool to help older individuals for general skin smoothing and in the treatment of fine facial wrinkles.

    How does glycolic acid treatments cure acne? The diagram to the right also shows a hair follicle and its associated sebaceous gland. It is this gland that produces sebum, an oily material that surrounds each hair follicle. Acne development, simply put, is a situation where these sebaceous glands get plugged and this sebum is not able to flow out in its regular pattern around the hair follicle. The gland gets trapped and this oily material then ruptures out into the surrounding tissue causing the typical signs of acne i.e. white heads, pustules, and papules. What is trapping these sebaceous? IT IS SIMPLY SOME OF THE DEAD SQUAMOUS CELLS. It is known now that some of the dead squamous cells from the outer stratum corneum fall down into the areas around the hair follicles and ultimately plug these sebaceous glands ultimately causing acne in selected individuals.

    WITH THE DAILY USE OF GLYCOLIC ACID, THESE DEAD CELLS ARE DISSOLVED, HAIR FOLLICLES ARE CLEANED OF THIS DEBRIS, AND ULTIMATELY THE SEBACEOUS GLAND FUNCTIONS NORMALLY AGAIN. THE FINAL RESULT BEING A FACE TOTALLY CLEAR OF ACNE!!!

Acnesil by SkinChoice.com

Acnesil
(10% Melaleuca Alternifolia Topical Creme)

Active ingredient shown to be safe and effective, WITHOUT DRYING OUT THE SKIN!!!!

For more information or to purchase go to www.acnesil.com

October, 1990 - Researchers and Scientists from the Department of Dermatology, Royal Prince Alfred Hospital, Camperdown, NSW publish a study comparing Tea Tree Oil with Benzol Peroxide: The results of this study showed that 5% tea-tree oil had a significant effect in ameliorating the patients' acne by reducing the number of inflamed and non-inflamed lesions (open and closed comedones). Moreover fewer side effects were experienced by patients treated with tea-tree oil than with Benzol Peroxide!

Applied twice daily, Acnesil helps to relieve Acne symptoms with fewer side effects than "off-the-shelf" products. When applied to the skin, Acnesil gives a refreshing "Tingling" feeling and leaves the skin silky smooth and moisturized, not dried out! We spent nearly two years developing this product in conjunction with Dermatologists, Pharmacists and Universities. It is made in a special laboratory, exclusively for SkinChoice.

"Medium Tan" in color, this soothing creme also contains Aloe Vera and Vitamin E, long prized by Acne sufferers for its healing and moisturizing properties, this combination of compounds provides IMMEDIATE relief and is EXTREMELY effective. As soon as it is applied to the affected area, you can feel the powerful antiseptic ingredients "working" as a cool tingling feeling. Shown in clinical studies to significantly reduce the both the "open" (cystic) and "Closed" (i.e. whiteheads) forms of acne, if applied at the first sign of a breakout, can reduce healing time and even help eliminate the outbreak completely! This will not dry out the skin like "other" acne products, and can be used as a spot treatment as well as for larger areas of the skin. We guarantee that you'll be happy!

We are the first and only company to offer an Acne treatment like this, without prescription, containing the isolated compounds from the Melaleuca alternifolia tree. You won't find this product, or anything nearly as good, anywhere else on the planet! Safe, effective and completely confidential, why would you consider any thing else?

The Acne Treatment Clinic

The Acne Treatment Clinic Philosophy

We offer a safe, affordable topical treatment for controlling your acne breakouts. As you read, we offer a money back guarantee. We have been in business for over 10 years successfully treating acne in the Bay Area in California and mailing our products to referral clients throughout the country and overseas.

Acne forms inside the hair follicles and is caused by the retention of dead skin cells. These dead skin cells stick to the oil that is produced by your skin and that attracts bacteria into the hair follicle, whereby your body produces a pimple to fight off the infection. The most important part to realize here is that acne is a genetic skin disorder and is caused by clogged hair follicles. Therefore, our treatment is aimed at removing the dead skin cells before they get trapped and make a new pimple. We offer non-acne aggravating cleansers, masks, sunscreens, makeup, etc as well as topical medications that actually go inside the hair follicles and clean them out - preventing a pimple from forming in the first place. It is an extremely effective approach to controlling acne. I know, because I have had acne for over 26 years and this is the only treatment that got my skin clear and has kept it clear for over 11 years now.

The treatments you may have previously used do not remove the dead skin cells trapped inside the clogged hair follicles. Antibiotics only work for awhile until the bacteria become immune to them. The topical products you may have tried use the same active ingredients (like sulfur, benzoyl peroxide, glycolic acid, salicylic acid, etc.) as our products however, unlike over the counter or prescription products, we do not add oils to our topical medications. Therefore, they are very effective at controlling your breakouts because they can get inside the clogged hair follicles to the root of the problem.

In order for our treatment to work, you need to be diligent in your use of the products. Since our treatment is designed to PREVENT pimples, you must use your products even when you are clear, or your pimples will come back. It takes about 3 to 4 months for a pimple to form, so it will take that long to control your skin. You will see positive changes during this time period, with pimples becoming smaller, going away faster and making less of a mark when they leave. We also ask you to check in with us via email or phone calls every 2 to 3 weeks during the first few months of treatment. It is crucial for us to hear from you regularly since your skin care routines may change based upon your skin's progress.

Because we are removing the dead skin cells inside the hair follicles, your skin will get a little dry and peely. It should NEVER get red, irritated, or rashy. You will be able to apply a moisturizer to the dry areas if you need to, but you will peel and flake slightly from our treatment. The way I look at it is I'd gladly trade in slightly dry skin for no pimples!

Following are our product recommendations for your skin. All of our products last approximately 3 to 5 months, depending on how much you use and how often.

Your Treatment Plan
10% Benzoyl Peroxide Medication $20.00
Sunscreen Creme, SPF 30 $18.00-- also used as your daily moisturizer. Excessive time in the sun makes you produce more skin cells which get trapped and make new pimples for the future. Also, it tans your scars darker. Therefore, I suggest you always wear a sunscreen when you're in the sun. It wouldn't ever hurt to wear a hat too!

10% Glycolic Gel $15.00 - For your during the day. Used to prevent new pimples and reduce scarring.

The product total is US$53.00. Shipping charges would be US$10.00 - US$15.00. We accept VISA, Mastercard, American Express, and Money orders. It takes about 10-15 days to receive your products.


If you wish to order any of the products above, please visit our secure store.

A final note...

You need to drink 8 glasses of water a day and keep your caffeine/alcohol consumption down to 1 a day total. You need to get 8 hours of sleep and also make sure you eat a well balanced diet too.

Remember: The better you take care of yourself, the lower your stress is and the better your skin will look. Just to let you know, there is NOT a cure for acne, only a way to control it from ruining your life!

If you have more questions, or wish to order some or all of the products above, please email me. I will keep your questionaire on file for 3 weeks before I discard it.

If you wish to order any of the products above, please visit our secure store.

I look forward to hearing from you soon.
