Nature’s Spot Remover
Clear, acne-free skin without synthetic ingredients is possible with Burt’s Bees Natural Acne Solutions products. Touted by the Durham, N.C.-based company as “the first and only truly natural acne line clinically proven to help reduce and prevent acne,” the Natural Products Association-certified items contain as their active ingredient salicylic acid, which is sourced naturally from willow bark. On a tree, bark’s job is to regulate temperature, moisture, nutrients and attacks by environmental stressors. Other featured ingredients include evening primrose, beetroot, tea tree and parsley extracts, jojoba beads and fruit acid complex, lemongrass and hops, The dermatologist-tested, non-irritating, non-clogging, non-animal-tested products are Step One: Purifying Gel Cleanser (99.4 percent natural), which provides anti-inflammatory benefits for troubled skin; Step Two: Pore Refining Scrub (100 percent natural), a dual-action exfoliator; Step Three: Daily Moisturizing Lotion (100 percent natural), which helps to control oil all day; and Step Four: Targeted Spot Treatment (100 percent natural), which works to soothe skin and reduce redness.
