Skincare treatments for acne shouldn't interfere with the moisture balance of your skin - in fact, they work better when they don't! Many products on the market that are designed to combat breakouts contain harsh ingredients which cause peeling and dryness - which only encourages the skin to produce MORE oil. Mattify's skincare line gently dissolves oil and blackheads inside of pores, to target acne bacteria and heal breakouts, without leading to dehydration. |

MATTIFY'S REPLY:
Thank you for your review Claire! It’s always amazing to hear feedback like this, as constant battles with breakouts can be such a struggle. Stop-Zit’s essential oil blend does indeed encourage trapped bacteria and fluid to rise to the top of the breakout – allowing it to finally be released. Retin A and alcohol-based acne treatments intend to “dry out” the blemish, which is why you experienced so much peeling. They start from the top of the epidermis, and very gradually dry it out. Since this process forms a hardened layer of skin over the top of the blemish, it takes even longer to heal than with no treatment at all! Oxygen is now prevented from entering the pore, and the dry layer of skin impedes medicinal ingredients in the treatment from getting to the root of the breakout. In contrast, Stop-Zit’s essential oils are able to sink through several layers of epidermis, targeting the breakout at its base, and healing from the inside out. Again, it's great to hear that the product has been a success for you! |
