SKLEER is not a medicine and we make no medical claims for the product. But we encourage you to read some of the testimonials on our website.

There is a lot of debate about whether to use oil-based or oil-free products on acne. A popular belief is that using oil-based products on your skin causes your body to stop producing oils, and results in smooth, clear skin. The testimonials from our customers indicate that SKLEER is very effective in treating acne and some acne scarring, but we do not claim that SKLEER is a treatment for acne. Is SKLEER non-comedogenic? The comedogenicity of a product refers to the likelihood that it will cause acne. It is measured of a 0-5 scale. We have not tested the comedogenicity of the product, but many of our customers use it for treating acne and acne scarring, so it is safe to assume it is very low. For some background, principal ingredients are essential oils namely, Tea Tree, Carraway, Cardamon, Cinnamon and Eucalyptus Oils. These are rated as a 2 on the scale of comedogenicity; essential oils fall between 0-2, depending upon several factors. All of the other ingredients are at 0. Where is your product made? Every tube of SKLEER is expertly crafted in South Africa. Do you test on animals? We do not, and never have or will, test on animals. How long does Skleer take to work? The rule of thumb is, it depends on the condition and how long it took to occur. For example, insect bites happen very quickly, therefore relief with SKLEER is almost instant, within seconds. Other more long-term conditions like acne and scarring have developed over a long period of time, so it may need a longer period to see results, possibly weeks or months. It's also excellent to use SKLEER as a preventive, to help set an environment that prevents these conditions from occurring in the first place. Is SKLEER 100% natural? SKLEER is about as close to 100% natural as one can get. It contains the all natural essential oils of eucalyptus, teatree, cardamom, caraway, cinnamon, as well as the earth's natural ingredients such as turmeric extract. The formulation has no alcohol. No harmful preservatives or parabens. No lanolin. No longterm skin damaging acids or alkalis such as salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide. No destructive corticosteroids. So in summary, no acids, alkalis, alcohols or harmful preservatives that damage that the skin’s natural protective integrity and interfere with the skin’s amazing natural healing ability. Can SKLEER be used as a natural skin lightener? Yes, SKLEER is great on age and sun-spots, and does have sun-protective effects, and will lighten the skin naturally over time.
