The key to a clear complexion is using a skin care regimen that uses combination salicylic acid and benzoyl peroxide as its acne fighting ingredients.  The Clear Proof Acne System from Mary Kay uses this approach! The system includes a Clarifying Cleansing Gel, Blemish Control Toner, Acne Treatment Gel and an Oil-Free Moisturizer for Acne-Prone Skin and works together to attack acne in multiple ways – it not only clears up existing acne but also helps keep future acne from forming in the first place.

I’ve got combination skin and more often than not I usually lean on the dry side of things. Breakouts have never been an issue for me, sure every once in awhile I’d get a dreaded pimple but for the most part I have been lucky enough to have pretty clear skin. Until recently, I don’t know if it’s stress or that time of the month but breakouts have seemed to attacked me with full force. I needed something in my routine that was going to treat this and prevent anything from getting worse. The Mary Kay Clear Proof Acne System is said to show results within 7 days.

Clarifying Cleansing Gel gives the skin a deep clean, removing dirt, excess oil and impurities. The salicylic acid formula helps to reduce the shine and unclog pores to help achieve clearer skin. I love that this was a gel, I always for whatever reason feel like I get a better cleanse with gel products.

Blemish Control Toner removes dead skin cells to help keep pores from clogging and prevent new pimples from forming. The salicylic acid-based formula cleanses skin completely to help tighten pores and appear less noticeable to give you healthy, clearer skin.

Acne Treatment Gel penetrates and clears pores to target bacteria and visible reduce a pimples redness. The benzoyl peroxide product absorbs bacteria quickly to help reduce the number of pimples, and allows the skin to heal and prevent future breakouts.

Oil-Free Moisturizer for Acne Prone Skin is a fast- absorbing, lightweight, non-pore-clogging formula that helps provide your skinniest the balanced hydration it needs. The formula helps control shine and excess oil to leave skin feeling nourished and healthier.

I used the Mary Kay Clear Proof Acne System for about 13 days but I could have told you after 3 that I enjoyed it. It has completely cleared the breakouts that I was experiencing and I haven’t seen any since.  It took about 7 days for everything to clear up but like I said on the third day I knew they were getting the boot. I really loved that the toner, tones without drying me out. The moisturizer was amazing. The only thing I could say as a con, is the scent. It’s super overwhelming but does fade away in an hour or so.  The Clear Proof System from Mary Kay is available for $45 and individual products range from $10 to $17.
