Our formula can turn your acne nightmare into a dream.
We don’t think there are acne products quite like ours anywhere else on the planet. Yet we are only keeping it simple by using natural ingredients that have been successfully used for centuries but have been forgotten.
Due to the change of hormones during your teenage years that cause your sebaceous glands to overproduce sebum (oil). It makes teenagers’ facial skin a perfect living and breeding ground for demodex mites.
It is thought that 90% of teenage acne is caused by these demodex mites and the resulting bacterial infections they cause when they decompose inside your skin, and that 10% is caused by bacteria that has nothing to do with these mites.
Although the link between demodex mites and acne vulgaris has been proven in some clinical practices, it is still not fully conclusive and further research is required.
Excess oil (sebum) production by your sebaceous glands due to hormonal changes during the teenage years block and clogs pores.
Acne develops when this sebum — an oily substance that lubricates your hair and skin — and dead skin cells plug pores. This then provides an ideal breeding ground for bacterial infection that results in inflammation and acne.
Although further research is required, our formula has still been created where demodex mites may be the root cause of your acne.
However even where demodex mites aren’t causing your acne, our cream is still an effective acne treatment due to its ability to regulate sebum production, unblock pores and eliminate bacterial infections.
Unlike acne treatments containing artificial ingredients such as synthetic salicylic acid that are harsh on your skin our natural acne cream can gently remove old, dead skin, unblock pores, kill bacterial infections and hydrate. Leaving you with acne-free clearer skin.
Many of the ingredients we use are clinically proven to be effective and studies are available online (great bedtime reading!).

Tea tree oil has been clinically proven to kill demodex mites, which may cause acne vulgaris. When these demodex mites die inside your hair follicles, their decomposing bodies cause bacterial infection and acne.
Our formula contains the optimal amount of tea tree oil so that it is effective.
Aloe vera contains salicylic acid which removes dead skin cells and dissolves them, unblocking pores.
Salicylic acid works by causing the epidermal cells to shed properly. Actually, its main function is to dissolve this cement that holds those cells adhered together in the clogged pores.
Simply put, salicylic acid aids in the process of exfoliation by eliminating surface skin cells and opening up pores.
Our cream contains natural oils such as almond oil and fractionated coconut oil. These natural oils fool your skin into thinking it has already produced enough sebum, thereby regulating it.
Containing natural oils such as almond oil, and natural botanicals such as calendula, lavender and aloe vera. Our water based formula hydrates and balances skin tone – moisturising dry areas and normalising oily areas. Because we understand that many of you with acne also suffer from dry skin.
Several studies have shown that calendula extract has amazing anti-inflammatory properties. Calendula also balances skin tone by increasing sebum production in dry areas and reducing excessive sebum production in oily areas. It is also anti-bacterial.
The natural oils in our cream are choc full of naturally occurring ceramides. These barrier-restoring ceramides can help keep your acne-prone skin clear, hydrated and comfortable.
East Cape Manuka Oil is one of the most powerful antibacterials in the world and kills off the bacteria caused by the mites that clog your pores.
Studies have shown that chamomile oil is cicatrisant, so it helps the scars and other spots on the skin to fade and vanish.
Chamomile oil is anti-bacterial and is therefore beneficial for eliminating acne vulgaris infections. It also reduces inflammation which causes the redness associated with spots.

But I embrace my true nature and stand firm and stand tall.
I glide with pure grace and I march on a mission.
For I was sent here to tell you that you’re all in transition.
