Marketing sells. That’s its job. Packaging also sells. I picked up this face toner (see photo insert) largely because I felt attracted by its packaging. It looked like a little house. And it promised an end to acne. Needless to say, I was intrigued.
If you don’t know me, you have to first understand that I’ve been plagued by acne since I was 10 years old. Puberty, it seemed, set in early and never left. Long after the adolescent years had come and gone, and everyone else’s face had cleared up, mine was a garden of roses. That’s right, I had adult acne, as it is termed.
I would wake up each morning, dreading to look in the mirror, wondering what had sprung up since the previous evening. I shudder at the memory of the creams, ointments and pills that I took. My skin peeled, looking like it had been rubbed raw.
So when I came across Sewame’s toner promising clear skin, is it any wonder that I picked it up, examined the promises on the package, and promptly purchased it? Now I must admit, this wasn’t the first Sewame product I had purchased. I bought a facial cleanser that I swear by. I don’t use it very often, but when I do, it stops all acne growth in its tracks. But as with all facial cleansers, because it strips your skin of its oils, the skin goes into overdrive and produces enough oil for 3 or 4 faces (most unscientific statement. I made that figure up. It’s my conservative estimate).
But the Sewame toner is different. It balances. It does everything it promises to do.
It makes use of such unlikely sources as mangosteen, Balsam pear, and asparagus, extracts some key ingredients from them, and presto: clear skin.
My skin is the clearest it’s been in years. Pigmentation from old acne marks are fading. No more surprises in the morning.
