A few weeks ago my mum bought me a present; a 50ml bottle of Salcura's Antiac. I had never even heard of this brand but she had read about it online after it had appeared on Embarassing Bodies (a TV show where doctors help treat embarassing/unusal illnesses, for those who don't know) and had got really good reviews.
Apparently it has won awards and I've been told that dermatologists are recommending it as a treatment before they prescribe Roaccutane! I don't believe that 100% but it must work if it was shown on national TV, it wouldn't be a very good promotion for the company if it had no effect at all...
I decided to have a look on the website and read some of the customer comments and they all seemed very positive; the main area of discussion was how quickly the treatment worked and what a good job it did of clearing spots. Another positive fact was that it is made with all natural products so while it helps clear the skin it has no nasty ingredients in it that could make it worse!
The 50ml bottle was only £9.99 from http://www.salcuraskincare.com/antiac-skin-therapy-spray-33.html so it is relatively cheap compared to some of the treatments I have purchased. It has a spray pump to penetrate the liquid deep into the skin and it is recommended that before you spray it directly on your face you spray some on to a piece of cotton wool and wipe over the worst areas so that you get better results!
My family have commented on the smell, saying that they know when I'm about to walk into the room because they can smell my face first! It is quite strong but when your the one that's wearing it you don't really notice.
Negative point: I have been using it for let's say... 3 weeks? And I have noticed no major improvements, or minor ones at that! But with all the publicity and positive feedback it has been getting it is definately worth a try!
