by Abigail Mckenzee

Acne is a common problem that affects both adolescents and young adults. Even though most acne is not severe, it can be bothersome and lead to self-esteem problems. It's no wonder that the search for the best acne medicine on the market is so fervent.

Acne solutions are everywhere. Every skin care line has, among its products, it own unique brand of acne medicine. In this article, we will take a look at two products to see which is the best acne cream.

Clinique Acne Solutions Emergency Gel Lotion and Bioskinclear are the two acne products we will review.

Acne Solutions Emergency Gel Lotion by Clinique

This lotion contains benzoyl peroxide which helps in clearing up recurring pimples and blemishes. It also alleges to unclog pores, reduce redness and control the production of sebum.

The Good:

Results are quite fast. Some users reported seeing results within a few days.

The Bad:

This product does not contain sunscreen. Some consumers assert that it leads to irritation, burning and tightness. They have also reported the appearance of blotchy patches and that the product become less effective with time.

The Bottom Line:

This lotion does have loyal consumers. However, reports stating its side effects and loss of effectiveness constitute two very important strikes against it. Make sure to take this into consideration before purchasing it.

Bioskinclear

Bioskinclear, an acne treatment cream uses snail serum as the base of its unique formula. It is an oil free gel for acne, rosacea and facial scars and for people with very oily skin complexions. It claims to remove dead skin cells, boost the production of water binding molecules and signal the immune system to moderate inflammatory reactions.

The Good:

This product is suitable for every skin type because it contains natural ingredients. It does not produce problems such as irritation, discoloration or tightness that are linked to other, harsh skin care products. In fact, it mitigates all of these problems.

The Bad:

Since it is basically a 100% natural acne cream, it may take time to lead to definite results.

The Bottom Line:

This gel also has its loyal following. Its natural composition is a very attractive point because anyone can use it without fear. If your problem is not waiting for results, this product could be a great choice for you.

All acne cream brands have their share of pros and cons. However, in the opinion of this author, all natural products will always be more beneficial that skin care products that are loaded with harsh chemicals.

Before purchasing any acne skin care, it is always a good idea to weigh your options. Bio skin care products, like Bioskinclear, will always treat your skin better than chemical laden products. So, save yourself the trouble of dealing with accutane side effects and other skin problems by choosing all natural skin care products.
