As you my fellow readers and bloggers, will now be aware of my constant search for a answer to my acne problems without spending all my money.
I believe I have now found my answer.
I have stumbled across the SOS (Save Our Skin) Solution treatment. It is available in your local Watson’s pharmacy for only P100.00. It contains Clindamycin Phosphate, 1% Tropical solution with Vitamin E.
It says on the bottle:
Clindamycin 1% Tropical Solution with vitamin E is a tropical antibiotic which contains an antioxidant use in the treatment of acne vulgans. The combination of antibiotic and Vitamin E’s natural skin repairing substance is an innovation that can prevent, heal acne as well as acne lesions and scarring.
I am very weary of what I put on my skin, since lately certain products have been making me break out more than ever. Although I have been using this product for just about a week now and I have seen a big improvement in my skin and the reduction of acne and scarring.
I really love this product and I will continue to use this product to treat my acne issues.
Directions:
Wash affected area gently with soap and water. You may use warm, moist compress to open the clogged pores. Shake SOS roll on and apply topically by gently rolling SOS on the affected area. When applying around the face, avoid the eye area. Use SOS once or twice a day depending on the severity. To fully enjoy the benefits of SOS, it is recommended to use up to 12 weeks for total healing.
The roll-on type of bottle makes it easy to apply to the face without wasting a lot of product, although this is a treatment that you would not want to share with anyone, just for the hygiene reason.
I personally apply this solution twice a day once before I sleep and before I go out for the day.
Pros:
Affordable
Available Locally
Easy to use
Effective
Cons:
Not hygienic
Overall rating:
I give this product a 4.5 out of 5 I really love this product, although for the hygiene reason I less the .5
So if you simply cant find anything else that works for you, try this SOS Tropical Solution.
Hi, I just wanna ask if it's in the pharmacy itself or do you have to find in the facial care section in Watsons? Thanks :)
ReplyDeleteAcne is a skin condition that occurs due to the overproduction of oil by the oil glands of the skin. The oil that normally lubricates the skin gets trapped in blocked oil ducts and results in what we know as pimples, blackheads, and whiteheads on the surface of skin. Sometimes it also includes deeper skin lesions that are called cysts.
ReplyDeleteBelieve it or not, for some people washing their face with good old-fashioned cornstarch can work for getting rid of acne.
ReplyDeleteskin lotions are the most well known medication to most skin problems. Ladies try this, it will keep yu fit.
ReplyDeleteSafe for tropical skin? another way, you can use honey and lime to "erase" ugly acne from your face. Find recipe here..

hi thanks for the info. I have just bought this product yesterday and I would want to ask if do you apply this on the whole face or just on the area with acne? thanks...
ReplyDeleteWhat about Sulfur soap can be a very effective acne treatment for the more common vulgaris variety ( blackheads,whiteheads etc). Its natural and cheap.

@ Berna delos Santos - I ended up asking the pharmacist for suggestions but I believe you should be able to find it within the store of watsons without having to go to the pharmacist.
ReplyDelete@ Brittnay - wow really well might have to try that one day.
@ Natural Acne Treatment - Also will have to try that out.
@ anonymous - you apply only directly to the problem area. not the whole face
@ ozam - cool thanks for the info!
