Acnezine

What is Acnezine?

imagesWhen looking into what acne treatment is right for you, it’s not uncommon to find countless products that claim to be a cure-all for any type of acne, no matter how old you are. That is exactly what you will find when looking at Acnezine’s website: A claim to to be the miracle cure to acne problems. If you were to receive an honest answer from these companies, you would hear something more to the effect that their product may improve skin types for some people. Good. Now that we’ve gotten that out of the way, let’s see how well this product compares to other products.

What’s in it?

When looking into what active ingredients this product has you will find a very short list indeed, with a list consisting of only one ingredient: Benzoyl Peroxide. Its not surprising because this ingredient is used in most acne treatments. This ingredient is most effective on mild to moderate forms of acne, and the claim that this product is beneficial to anyone of any age isn’t exactly accurate. Benzoyl Peroxide is an organic peroxide that is created by combining hydrogen peroxide with benzoyl chloride. It is usually most effective when used in concentrations of at least 2.5%, and this product contains just short of that at 2.4%. Most users will experience dryness and irritation of the skin and many will build a tolerance for it after about a week or so. There are some users, mainly those with sensitive skin, that experience sever rashes, burning, itching, peeling, or swelling that won’t diminish with time.

Also included are Allantoin, Aloe Barbadensis (Organic Aloe Vera) Leaf Juice, Benzyl Alcohol, Betula Alba (Birch) Leaf Extract, Camellia Sinensis (Green Tea) Leaf Extract, Carbomer, Citrus Aurantium Dulcis (Orange/Neroli) Fruit Extract, Citrus Medica Limonum (Lemon) Peel Oil, DMDM Hydantoin, Fragrance (Parfum), Glycerin, Hamamelis Virginiana (Witch Hazel),
Honey, Iodopropynyl Butylcarbamate, Melaleuca Alternifolia (Tea Tree) Leaf Oil, Methylpropanediol, Salix Alba (Willow) Bark Extract, Salvia Officinalis (Sage) Leaf Extract, Sodium Citrate, Sodium Hyaluronate, Sodium Hydroxide, Sugar Cane Extract, Vaccinium Myrtillus (Bilberry) Extract, Water (Aqua), and Xanthan Gum.

How much does Acnezine cost?

The “Starter Package” provides 1 month of product and starts at $39.95, working its way up to $159.95 for a 6 month supply. There is no money back guarantee even from the official website, only a 90 day return policy for unused and unopened products, with a $10 restocking fee and no refund on shipping and handling. (Stingy, we know.)  The upside is that you can find it cheaper from other websites (we could find it at $28.99 for the 1 month supply) and you don’t lose out on a non-existent money back guarantee.

Is Acnezine worth buying?

While this product may help those with mild to moderate acne problems, this is far from the miracle cure that they have advertised it to be, and we would consider it an average product to purchase. With that being said there are much cheaper products out there that will provide the same results and that include many of the same ingredients. This product doesn’t appear to be worth the money you’d spend and we’d advise to look elsewhere.
