Overview
ClearSkin-A consists of a two-formula system, including a Face Wash and Acne Gel. ClearSkin-A is produced and marketed by Native Remedies, a holistic product company that offers dozens of naturally based products, including nutritional supplements for a wide range of health issues. Founded by Michele Carelse, a psychologist, Native Remedies claims that ClearSkin-A treats acne more effectively and more safely than conventional medications. Since we are not aware of any herbal extracts or botanicals that have been approved by the FDA for the treatment of acne, we wondered whether ClearSkin-A would be able to live up to its claims.

Featured Ingredients
In comparison to other natural acne formulas that we have seen on the market, the ingredients within both ClearSkin-A formulas are rather unique. The Face Wash features some exotic herbs, such as Bulbine frutescence, a South African botanical that has been used to sooth irritation and heal wounds. Aspalathus linearis (Rooibos) is another African herb that helps protect the skin from infection. Tea tree oil is a known skin cleanser and astringent that theoretically helps to exfoliate the skin, which could conceivably reduce acne. The ClearSkin-A Acne Gel also contains Aspalathus linearis (Rooibos), Bulbine frutescence and Tea tree oil, making us wonder what the difference between both products is, if any. Perhaps more confusing is the fact that, on a separate page on the company’s web site, the list of ingredients for the Acne Gel is different. No mention is made of these three ingredients, and instead it seems as if the product contains other botanicals, including lavender and Symphytum. 

Even without considering this troubling error, the staff at ClearSkinReviews.com is not aware of any research that shows how any of these ingredients treats or prevents acne.

Web Site at a Glance
Native Remedies does not host a separate web site for the ClearSkin-A system, but rather includes it within their corporate site, which also contains information on the other products sold under the Native Remedies brand. Customer testimonials are listed, but as mentioned earlier, there is some confusion over the ingredients in the Acne Gel. In addition, Native Remedies does not include any research studies on the botanicals in the formulas.  Pros
- Most botanical products will probably not irritate the skin 

Cons
- No clinical research on the ingredients or the finished product

- No free trial offered

- Confusing and contradictory information about ingredients in Acne Gel

Summary
Until Native Remedies clears up the contradictory information about the ingredients in the ClearSkin-A Acne Gel - and until the company publishes any convincing research on the botanicals in the formulas - we cannot recommend this product.
