Q: What product should I turn to now?

I have lived with acne for 16 years: every size shape and texture that is possible, I've had.  I've spent many hours talking to beauty consultants and trying products that over and over again DO NOT WORK. (for me).  Then one wonderful day, five years ago, a friend forced me :)  to try another new product.  She said many of her customers had plenty of good of great things to say about it.  So I tried it, and within 4 days, I had lost over 75% of my acne, NO JOKE.  This WAS Biotherm's Acnopure and I have been faithfully forking out good cash for it ever since.  Now it seems that Biotherm thought the line could be improved, completely changed it, and two weeks into this new and improved (and more expensive I might add) system, I have raw, juicy zitty's popping up all over.  I feel like I'm back at square one!  Was I the only one that the old product actually helped?  I don't think so, and I'm left feeling abandoned to be honest.  So now, where the heck do I go to get a product that works the way Biotherm's Acnopure USED TO?  (It is now called Biopure).  Please help me if you can.   Smelly

You might try contacting the company directly - there is usually a consumer number provided on the product - or you can google their executive headquarters and see if they have a quantity of the product that they can sell to you.  I have had success myself with a couple of "not made anymore' or "changed formulary." I'd also see if they sell a version of this product overseas - sometimes they don't change those product lines.

I can appreciate your frustration.

Rodan and Fields has a product called unblemish.  It has real dermatologist medicines.  I have been using it for 4 months and it is the first thing that has ever cleared my acne.  It actually cleans your skin from the inside out to give you clearer healthier skin.  It heals acne, is non-drying, helps heal acne scaring and pock marks and minimizes your pores.  It comes with a 60 day supply and is risk free because it comes with a 100% money back guarantee if you are not satified.  It is important however, to use it as directed.  If I miss a few days my acne starts coming back, but clears again soon after I start using it again.  for questions or more info you can email me or go to www.rodanandfields.com/jallan
