All About Acne

Melanie Vasseur, a Nutritional Cosmetic Chemist and Medical Esthetician is a leading authority on the science of skin care. Melanie became frustrated by traditional approaches and was determined to clear her acne for good. A nutrition educator at the time, she began to create her own all-natural skin care treatments. Within a short period of time, her skin showed remarkable improvements, so much so that her students wanted to know her secret – and try whatever she was using! It marked the beginning of Vasseur Scientific Skincare and now over 20 years later, Melanie s exclusive, natural products have produced amazing results for thousands of devoted users!
Acne is the commonly used name for pores clogged by sebum (also known as whiteheads and blackheads), pimples, nodules or cysts that can appear on the face, neck, shoulders, chest, back, upper arms and upper legs.
Most teenagers and a good number of adults suffer from acne for more or less extended periods of time. The condition is not confined to any age group, race, or sex. It affects hundreds of millions of people across the world. The biggest problems with acne are the unpleasant look of pimples and the scars they may leave behind.
I take acne very seriously as having suffered from it since I was 11 years old. Most people I know don t remember me with acne because I either covered it up, or got facials regularly which really helped prevent it.
My whole skincare line is dedicated to helping anyone with problem skin. Those of you with beautiful skin, “piss off”. Just kidding.
How I recommend using the Clear Skin Kit. In my book “Under My Skin” I describe in detail how to use the products, here is a brief explanation.
Clear Skin starts with cleansing. I use the Foaming Cleanser most of the time, except if I m dry, then I use Creamy Cleanser.
I then use ALA for my pores. I have my new ALA with Azelaic Acid. Day 25 follows in the morning.
In the evening, I recommend using ALA Cream, Hydro Gel, if dry skin, or Benzo 5, if normal to oily with breakout. If experiencing a breakout, dap MaxiClearon top of inflammation.
If it is an emergency and you have an important event you have to go to, I recommend icing your face for 5 to 10 minutes. Then apply Kiss Zit Goodbye over blemished area. Reapply the ice to infected area for 10 more minutes. Repeat this one more time. If the acne is severe, I would put ALA with Azelaic Acid, Benzo 5, Kiss Zit Goodbye and MaxiClear, followed by the ice treatment for another 10 to 20 minutes, until I could not stand it. Move the ice around from area to area, when it gets too cold.
If your skin gets a little dry, slow down your treatment, don t stop it. Don t worry that you are using moisturizer as Vasseur Skincare does not contain pore clogging ingredients.

ALA Cream

Nature's most powerful antioxidant and anti-inflammatory.
(good for all skin types)

Alpha Lipoic Acid

A powerful antioxidant and anti-inflammatory. Alpha lipoic acid (ALA) is a completely natural molecule that exists deep inside every cell in our bodies. Like vitamin C, alpha lipoic acid has been well known to scientists for a long time: it was discovered in 1951 by researchers who found it was an essential component of the energy-producing part of the cell. They also revealed that when additional alpha lipoic acid is made available to living cells, it quickly enters those cells and offers extensive protection from free radicals. read more

BenzoClear 10 - Normal Skin

(good for acne or breakout prone skin, even sensitive skin types)

This acne treatment helps stop the development of breakouts where they start by oxygenating the skin and killing the bacteria within the pores. Bacteria cannot thrive where oxygen is present making it effective on even the toughest acne. It promotes the renewal of healthy new cells and gently exfoliates dead skin cells and build up that can clog pores and lead to congestion and acne lesions. It is great for teens and adults with acne or breakout prone skin and can be used to treat acne on your back as well. You can even use it after waxing or shaving to prevent ingrown hairs.

Cleanser Buffing

(good for all skin types)

All of your products will work better if your skin is properly exfoliated and our gentle exfoliating cleanser will gently buff your skin improving the tone and texture leaving it softer and more refined. It is designed to remove the build up of dead, dry skin that keeps excess oil and dirt in, prevents your products from properly penetrating the skin and adds to the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Exfoliating your skin with a harsh abrasive, such as apricot pit, can irritate, pull and tear the skin which can lead to breakouts and make it vulnerable for bacterial invasion. Our gentle formulation of milk, almond meal and raspberries will gently buff your skin without irritation, tearing or pulling. Quit wasting your product and add Buffing Cleanser to routine a couple of times a week and you will notice the difference!
