This Strategic Set for adult breakouts includes Intensive Repair Serum, Treatment Retinol Serum, and Treatment Oil.
Breakouts in adults are caused by multiple factors, including skin deficiencies, environmental stressors, microbial dysbiosis, and more. The concerns we commonly see include congestion, enlarged pores, excessive oil, inflammation, breakouts, cystic eruptions, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, and/or dehydration in the skin. Our bodies are trying to tell us something when breakouts show up in the skin. Instead of taking the conventional approach to acne, which consists of attacking and stripping the skin, our strategy is to support it topically with micronutrients that help it function optimally.
These genius formulations work together to refine the skin, diminish breakouts, and address the signs of aging in the skin. Essential micronutrients, EFA’s, and AHA/BHA’S work in tandem to address the contributing factors of breakouts (excess oil, inflammation, and microbial dysbiosis) while also strengthening and supporting the skin system to be more resilient.

TREATMENT OIL
ARGAN OIL is rich in omega-6s and 9s, vitamin E, carotenes, squalene, and phenols, and has a remarkable ability to nourish, moisturize and improve skin elasticity. It also helps control surface sebum, thus eliminating that greasy look.
BORAGE OIL is high in GLAs (gamma-linolenic acid), which makes it instrumental in controlling one of the primary contributors to acne, namely, inflammation. Because borage oil also regulates water loss, it is excellent for treating adult acne.
TEA TREE OIL Tests show that tea tree oil is as effective as benzoyl peroxide in combating P. acnes, the major acne-causing microbe. Better yet, it has none of the downside risks associated with BP, like sun sensitization and increased skin sensitivity.
WILLOW BARK contains salicylic acid, a beta-hydroxy acid that clears clogged pores by dissolving skin protein from the outside in. Our most effective acne-fighter.

If irritation occurs, discontinue use and consult a physician. Keep products in a cool, dry place, out of direct light. Use within 6 months of opening.
I’m breastfeeding, so I can’t do a retinol to exfoliate. But this has been a fantastic for exfoliating and resetting my skin when breaking out. The next morning after I’ve used it my skin looks entirely new.
I have aging acne-prone skin that is also sensitive. Most natural products cause me to break out or have some sort of other reaction. Treatment oil is one of the only products I've used that not only moisturizes and keeps my skin feeling soft and supple, but also does not cause me to break out and will in fact help with any breakouts I do get.
This treatment oil beautifully hydrates my combination skin. It's a must in my skin care routine.
Just started using. Alternating with Intense Treatment for congestion on nose and chin areas. So far it’s working great!
Excellent product. For so many years I have struggled with blackheads on nose and congestion in chin area. Been using this product for over a year now and I’m so excited to see both areas cleared. I’m now using the vit c and retinol at night too. Thanks for your great products and videos.
