I Tried AMERICA’s most popular acne product. Here’s WHY YOU NEED TO AVOID IT AT ALL COSTS.

How a 'harmless' chemical in your bathroom cabinet is secretly feeding your acne problem and also making your skin more sensitive to UV!

Jan 10 2025 at 9:17 am EDT by Camille C.

You've tried everything and nothing worked. The truth? These companies profit from your endless searching, not your healing.

NOTICE: This will make you question everything you think you know about the skin care industry.

following the money

Americans pour over $3 billion annually into the acne industry's bottomless pit. That number represents millions of desperate faces, searching for hope in bottles filled with chemicals they can't pronounce.

When an industry grows this massive from human desperation, every "breakthrough" formula becomes suspiciously designed to maintain the problem it claims to solve.

"Just a preservative?"

Benzoic Acid appears innocent enough, just a "preservative to keep your product fresh." Yet this seemingly harmless additive harbors a dark secret that clinical research has quietly exposed for years.

Here's what some reputable studies claim it actually does to your skin:

  • Damages skin

    at concentrations deemed "safe" by regulators

  • Causes irritation, redness, and burning

    on direct contact

  • Weakens your skin barrier

    when it's already compromised from acne

  • Increases (UV) sun damage risk

    through photosensitive reactions

  • Triggers inflammatory responses

    that worsen with repeated use

The cruelest irony? They market THIS as "gentle preservation."

destroy it all

Your skin isn't a war zone, it's a delicate garden. Yet most acne treatments obliterate everything in sight, destroying the beneficial bacteria that actually help maintain clear, healthy skin.

This approach leaves your face defenseless, unable to rebuild its natural protective system.

When companies ignore this fundamental truth, your skin remains trapped in perpetual chaos, desperately seeking balance that never comes.

I Wrangled acne for 16 years myself

At thirteen, I stood in that drugstore aisle clutching babysitting money, convinced Clean and Clear would save me. The flaking started immediately. My face looked like a dandruff commercial gone wrong, but failure only fueled my desperation. I became a collector of disappointments, filling my bathroom with half-used tubes and broken promises.

Sixteen years later, I was still that same girl, just older and infinitely more defeated. Cystic breakouts had conquered my jawline and face. Dermatologists offered dismissive platitudes while prescribing treatments that harmed me more than acne did. Birth control promised salvation but delivered twelve bladder infections and a metabolism I no longer recognized.

The breaking point came surrounded by all of the products I tried. Hundreds of dollars. Thousands of hours. All for skin that stayed angry and unpredictable. That's when the truth hit me: they weren't trying to help me. They were managing me as a perpetual customer.

That "squeaky clean" feeling I'd been chasing? My skin barrier screaming. I'd been poisoning myself while paying premium prices for the privilege.

So I stopped listening to them and started listening to my skin. I started researching and experimenting in my kitchen. I traveled to Norway, France, and Italy, hunting for ingredients that could work with my skin instead of against it. My husband watched me slowly transform as I discovered what my skin had been begging for all along.

It started with just me, then friends begging for samples. One hundred women trusted my early formulations. Then one thousand. Ten thousand. Today, over 302,000 women have trusted me to help them fight acne. And it works. Our reviews speak for themselves.

How i finally won

My Clear Skin Kit contains four products with over 40 natural ingredients that work as a perfect system against acne and other impurities.

The Radiant Cleansing Nectar removes impurities while preserving delicate balance. Finally, a cleanser that gets your makeup off without leaving your face raw and screaming for moisture.

The Clarifying Hydration Dew prepares your freshly cleansed skin without stripping defenses. Think of it as the gentle second step that actually soothes instead of that tight, angry feeling you're used to.

The Clear Skin Elixir targets breakouts overnight without chemical burns or nasty chemicals. You can actually sleep peacefully knowing it's healing that painful bump instead of creating three new problems.

The final step is where we customize for your unique skin:

Choose the Flawless Water Cream if your skin tends toward oily or combination type skin, or the Flawless Nourishment Cream if dryness is your struggle.

Your skin absorbs whichever formula matches your needs, never feeling greasy or triggering new breakouts, just deeply satisfied for the first time in years.

302,637+ women and me

Let's cut to the present day. That little experiment i made in my own kitchen led to me launching Averr Aglow. My own small skincare brand. My goal is and always was to help women who've tried everything with little or no success to FINALLY get the clear skin they deserve.

To more than 302,637 women have transformed their skin using it.

My Clear Skin promise to you

Try it for 60 days to discover what your skin feels like when treated with respect instead of aggression. Use the entire Clear Skin Kit and watch your skin remember how to heal itself.

If you don't see genuine improvement in your skin in 60 days, request a full refund. No questions. No corporate runaround designed to exhaust you into keeping failed products.

After sixteen years of broken promises, I refuse to profit from your desperation while delivering disappointment. I want you to feel like I do today.

I absolutely love the way these products make my skin glow and feel amazing! This actually cleared up the black heads on my nose that I’ve been trying to get rid of for years! They come back easily if I skip my daily/nightly skincare routine so it’s definitely important not to skip taking care of your skin if you want to see constant results from these products. Love them. Definitely worth the price imo.

I’ve had acne since on and off in my teens. But constantly had it for 3 years now (I’m 20 now). I am used to waking up with a new pimple. But the first 2 weeks of using the clear skin starter kit I did not see any new pimples. Since then I have gotten a few. These products are making a huge difference. My sensitive skin loves the natural ingredients. My usual red complexion is now calm and even toned.

So much clearer!

I have been managing cystic acne for months and was looking for something before going back on spironolactone. Only two weeks in, I can say I've noticed a significant difference. This stuff really works. I had no success with BLUME but this regimen seems to work wonders. Thinking about getting the travel version for easy carrying.

This system keeps my skin looking super healthy. Best skin care I've used!

Made the switch and love it!

I like how this duo makes my skin feel. I wasn’t a fan of the smell at first but now it’s not so bad. I had a few breakouts within the first week of the switch but now my face is doing much better!

Consistency did pay off!

I waited to submit a review because results were not instant. However, I decided to give the product more time (as recommended) and I am now over four months into this routine with very noticeable results. I struggled specifically with acne on my chin and often cystic. One area in particular I couldn’t seem to get clear. Now, it has cleared up and if I do get a pimple it is not as deep and clears up much faster. My skin also feels healthy and hydrated. Very glad!

I confidently recommend this to my acne clients

I started using this Averr Aglow kit back in 2019. My skin was in so much pain from all of the acne I was suffering with. Nothing would help. Anything I tried had left my skin dry/tight and caused even more pain on top of the acne. Then I found Averr Aglow. This stuff has been the holy grail for my acne. It cleared my skin up (of course remember it gets worse before it gets better) and it really gave my poor abused skin the nutrients it needed! Now 2024, I have clear skin and now as an Esthetician I recommend Averr Aglow to all of my clients struggling with acne. Cant go wrong with this stuff!

THANK GOODNESS FOR AVERR AGLOW. JUST BUY IT!!!

Oh my freaking gosh I just have to say thank GOODNESS I finally found something that works!! I have been waiting to write this review to show the complete results. I am just like everyone else on here. I was skeptical of buying from an instagram ad, but of course I was desperate and thinking "what do I have to lose??” For a year at age 24, I started struggling with acne all around my chin like I was going through a second puberty or something!! I tried spiro, tretinoin, clindamycin, doxy, benzoyl peroxide, tea tree oil, everything my dermatologist suggested and all of it failed! (Birth control used to keep my acne in check, and then it stopped!) It got to the point where the Dr. started mentioning chemical peels and accutane that I knew I had to look elsewhere! Don’t get me wrong, maybe a dermatologist works for some people, but I have found no matter what skin issue I have going on, they glance at it and immediately prescribe something harsh that never works! I spent months and months hating my complexion, ever hopefully looking in the mirror every morning and depressed at what I saw back. Well, desperate, I ordered the clear skin kit from AA after continuously getting ads for it (props to you AA) and I kid you not, I saw results in the first week. Of course nothing too crazy, but I could tell my skin was calming and starting to heal. By week 2 and 3 it was even better. After the first month I was like heck yeah this is working. I was going for at least doable and passable under makeup (for months I was covering my whole face in so much makeup to try and hide the acne. Of course, you could still always see the texture through it). Now, I felt halfway decent about myself!
I think it's the step 1 and 2 that really went to work on my skin. Some people say it took time to get used to the fact that you have to clean your face without water, but I love it! I love not having to wash my face the traditional way every night (I tried double cleansing to no avail) and using a face towel. All it takes is a cotton round and I am all cleansed and it feels good. Not to mention, step 2 takes off waterproof mascara like nothing else I have EVER tried. The mask at night is so wonderful and light. I think that helped a lot too! I love that it is working on my skin while I sleep. And the fact that all of the products are natural and safe ingredients?? Like I don’t have to worry about going off of it while pregnant or on bc or anything! I know this is long, but I really wanted to write my whole experience. I started it at the end of May 2024 and have been on it almost 4 months now. I feel like I’m back to my beautiful self, that I got to have the hot girl summer I wanted (foundation free!!), and that I can finally walk around feeling confident again. I am hesitant to go off of it because I am not sure if my bad skin can come back, but sometimes I don’t feel that I need the whole routine twice a day now!
The amount of brain space worrying about my acne took up this last year was depressing, and I am just glad this skin kit magically solved it all for me, so thank you Averr Aglow!! Also if you're worried about the price, don’t be. Quality products cost money, that’s how it should be and how it is. This ain’t your grocery store’s generic skin kit. Not to mention AA offers so many rewards and points towards purchases. I will always pay this amount if it means I can feel this amazing about myself. Bottom line: Just buy it. Try it. If you're like me, you don’t have much to lose. The images speak for themselves!!

If You Are Unsure, BUY IT!!!!

I have been waiting months to write this review to make sure the products really work and I'm here to tell you, THEY DO!

When I turned 24, it was like I went through second puberty. I got moderate acne on my chin again and nothing seemed to work. I have tried EVERYTHING except accutane. I originally went on birth control when I was younger to help with acne and it worked but now no longer seems to work at all. I tried spironolactone, which made my skin so much worse. I tried doxycycline which did absolutely nothing. Ive been on tretinoin, retinols, clindamycine, benzolperoxide, tea tree oil etc. I wasted SO much money at the dermatologist. My self esteem was low, I didn't want to leave the house or see friends because of my skin. I hated having to put makeup on to go out in public, which only made it worse. Then I started getting so many ads on instagram for acne products and was always so skeptical. I came across Averr Aglow and I read all the reviews which were amazing, but it seemed too good to be true, but I was desperate.

After having horrible acne for a whole year, trying product after product with zero results I tried Averr Aglow's Clear Skin Kit. And after just ONE WEEK I noticed improvement in my skin. It only got better, I was hardly breaking out anymore, but I still had so much hyperpigmentation and scarring and bumps. My acne used to get worse on my period but I've noticed, I maybe get one tiny zit while on my period now and I don't even care because I know it used to be so inflamed. I loved the way the Clear Skin Kit feels on my skin, it's hydrating and moisturizing and I love not having to wash my face with water. I woke up every morning excited to see my skin and how much it improved over night.

After about 3 months I was walking around without any makeup on and feeling great about my skin!! I was so thrilled to be able to go to my big family beach week and rock no makeup and swim in the ocean and not have to worry about my acne at all! Now almost 4 months later, my skin is amazing. (Seriously look at the before and after pics!) Unfortunately I'm left with some scarring from all the torture I put my skin through, so I purchased the Scar and Pockmark Repair Serum and have been using it for a couple of weeks. I hope it continues to get rid of my scars, I'm optimistic.

The Clear Skin Kit has saved my life, my self esteem, I have my confidence back, and I'm so so so so happy. If you are struggling with acne and have tried everything, try this! You will NOT be disappointed.
