Acne Treatment Reviews

What is Burt’s Bees Acne Solutions?

With so many skin treatments on the market today its often hard to determine which will be right for you. It can be especially difficult with so many products to choose from because what works for one person might not work for another. That’s why it seems natural for a product line to include a product for each aspect of skin problems that one might be dealing with. Burt’s Bees Natural Acne Solutions seems to have come up with a product for just about anything: A clarifying toner, a pore refining scrub, a targeted spot treatment, a purifying gel, a daily moisturizing lotion, and a couple packages to help you save when you buy them all. What’s left to do is determine whether all these products are actually worth buying.

Ingredients

Burt’s Bees Acne Solutions uses only natural ingredients to clear skin, so you don’t need to worry about any harsh chemicals or the side effects that come with them. One of the main ingredients behind Burt’s Bees Acne Solutions is willow bark extract. It is used as an astringent, antiseptic, anti-inflammatory, and antipyretic. It contains salicylic acid which stimulates new cell formation be getting rid of old skin cells. Willow bark extract will also work as a natural skin exfoliant. It contains beta hydroxy acids that work to unplug follicles and pores.

How much does it cost?

As previously stated, you have the option to either buy these products separatelyor in a package. There is one package that allows you to buy the Daily Moisturizing Lotion, Pore Refining Scrub, and the Purifying Gel Cleanser and receive the Targeted Spot Treatment for free, saving you $10. There is also the option of buying the Purifying Gel Cleanser, Daily Moisturizing Lotion, and Targeted Spot Treatment for $30, saving you $8. Separately you can purchase these products for $10 each, excluding the Daily Moisturizing Lotion which is $18.

Pros

• Mixed customer reviews, but with the majority of users having positive results.
• Fairly inexpensive
• Uses all natural ingredients

Cons

• Many users said that these products made their skin greasy, so those with oily skin should steer clear of this product line
• Most effective on those that only have mild acne problems
• This product received positive feedback from those who were only using as a moisturizing lotion, not as a serious acne treatment

Conclusion

While this product line is relatively inexpensive and has had many positive reviews, we wouldn’t recommend it as an acne treatment. Because this product isn’t designed for those with oily skin or even moderate acne problems, what you’re looking at is a moisturizer and daily cleanse for those with a normal skin type, in which case there are even less expensive products that would do the trick just fine. This product most likely will not produce nasty side effects but it will also not clear skin problems to the extent that many need it to. So even though this product will not break the bank for you, we’d be lying if we said it was worth even the low price of $10.
