Clear Complexion Cleanser with Botanical Blast is introduced by manufacturers as the ultimate deep cleansing gel that will seep into pores to eliminate even the toughest bacteria. They say that Clear Complexion Cleanser with Botanical Blast leaves skin clean, clear, and free of shine.”
And of course, it supposedly uses clinically proven ingredients that reduce sebum production while unclogging and purifying pores. They describe what are, according to their claims, the best possible botanicals for clinically proven acne fighting results. What are the powerful ingredients designed to promote this effect?
Clear Complexion Cleanser with Botanical Blast Ingredients
Clear Complexion Cleanser with Botanical Blast ingredients include Water, Diglycerin, Maltitol, Sodium Cocoyl Glutamate, Methyl Gluceth-10, Potassium Cocoyl Glutamate, Tea-cocoyl Alaninate, Butylene Glycol, Potassium Lauroyl Glutamate, Salix Nigra (Willow) Bark Extract, Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Leaf Extract, Epilobium Angustifolium, Flower/ Leaf/Stem Extract, Rosmarinus Officinalis (Rosemary) Leaf Extract, Sasa Kurilensis Water, Glycerin, Cellulose Gum, Sodium Hydroxide, Pelargonium Graveolens Flower Oil.
Clear Complexion Cleanser with Botanical Blast focuses on the use of white willow bark and sasa kurilensis water. After extensive research, we have discovered 1 thing. We already knew that white willow bark does not unclog pores. Actually, it acts as a natural anti-inflammatory, healing damaged skin. But as far as we can tell, their other signature ingredient, sasa kurilensis, is a bamboo that is popularly grown for its aesthetic value. But it has no clinically proven effect on acne prone skin.
We have no problem with the use of white willow bark. In fact, we encourage the use of white willow bark as a complementary ingredient to heal damaged skin. Our problem is that they do not have any ingredients clinically proven to cleanse the skin, eliminate bacteria, or fight acne. They do not have important ingredients such as sulfur, benzoyl peroxide, salicylic acid, alpha hydroxy acids, or for that matter tea tree oil, which we find in products that actually work.
Clear Complexion Cleanser with Botanical Blast Side Effects
Clear Complexion Cleanser with Botanical Blast specifically claims to avoid irritants like parabens, sulfates, triclosan, etc. But while we agree that most of these have no place in any skincare product, we do have to defend parabens. It may be that parabens have side effects. But the studies that suggest this are sketchy and questionable at best.
On the other hand, there are ingredients in Clear Complexion Cleanser with Botanical Blast that have been positively defined as irritants and industrial grade chemicals which cause side effects such as redness, irritation, peeling, dermatitis, and dryness of the skin.
Final Word
Clear Complexion Cleanser with Botanical Blast is part of a 4 piece kit, and we cannot say enough about the possible benefits of a kit. Kits combine several pieces instead of 1. And while they may seem inconvenient at first, they typically require only a few minutes of your time to provide both immediate and long term acne fighting benefits.
Clear Complexion Cleanser with Botanical Blast is one of the exceptions to this rule. No matter how many products you combine, you will not see results when they do not have any clinically proven ingredients for positive acne fighting results.
