Cleanliness is next to Godliness. And using Meridian Acne Therapy System will give you the face of a goddess. Alright, that may sound cheesy, but this three-step system clears skin in days. How do I know? The use of this product underwent a month long, intense 24/7 scrutiny as it was applied by the best possible test subject, my roommate. Proactiv better watch its back!
Step 1: The tester said that using the Benzoyl Peroxide Acne Treatment Cleanser, which zaps acne causing bacteria, made her face feel incredibly clean, though a little bit dry.
Step 2: The Tea Tree Oil Toner reduced redness and irritation as well as alleviated the dryness caused by the cleanser. It only takes a quarter sized amount of the toner (don’t be alarmed by the light brown color, after all, it’s tea) to deep clean pores and wipe off oils. Bonus points for the refreshing medicated/herbal scent and the slightly tingly feeling.
Step 3: Even though Meridian claims that the Fragrance Free Moisturizer is “quickly absorbed,” we disagree. When I applied the product, it made my face feel slightly sticky. My test subject thought the moisturizer to be overly heavy, leaving her skin shiny. Our conclusion? This may not be the best product for oily skin, so use sparingly.
All in all, the trio gets the job done - probably because it is the only system that combines the anti-inflammatory benefits of tea tree oil with a 10 percent benzoyl peroxide solution. My only gripe: the bottle sizes of toner and moisturizer should be switched in order to have the most effective package. Available at www.skinbymeridian.com.
