"Botáni Rescue Acne Cream offers a simple and effective solution for all challenging issues involving the "blind" aspects of acne, whether that be teenage or menopausal. Many products promise satisfactory outcomes …………….Botáni Rescue Acne Cream delivers on that promise."
…Gerald Quigley, Pharmacist and Herbalist, Priceline Pharmacy Prahan.

What other people are saying…..

"Have started our daughter on "Rescue Acne Cream" and will surely look into the "Skin Rescue Kit" for further use. Have been very frustrated with the number of products and suggestions and products on the market for "hormonal blemishes" on young teenage skin. The one product
"Rescue Acne Cream" appears to be suited to her skin and contains ingredients that are beneficial for this problem. The availability of the product is also a "inviting" factor to keep using it. Thanks to the company for making it affordable and honest with its ingredients"….Suzanne

"I can tell you how much I'm in love with your products. Ever since my beautician recommended me your products, 2 yrs ago, I can't live without them.
I suffered from acne as a teenage and in my early 20's, and I COULD NEVER find anything that helped me.
I have so much confidence in your products (and in myself now) and friends have commented on the "glow" my skin has had lately.
I just want to say thank you and all these years of hoping for a good natural product I can't believe I found my answer in the next suburb!
I've even got my partner onto your products, and he loves them. The rescue acne cream is a life saver!
My cupboards are now never without a Botáni product in them now! Thanks a million!"....LISA.D

"I have battled with acne since being a teenager! I am now 37. I believe I have tried all available treatments to control the acne, but nothing has resolved it! From the contraceptive pill to antibiotics to special diets to expensive creams, potions and lotions! All have shown no real answers. I have had constant disappointments and the skincare products I have used in the past have aggravated rather than healed! Since using the Skin Rescue Kit, I immediately noticed that it brought my skin back to a balanced state where the oiliness has subsided and the pimples are disappearing. It's so nice to experience 'normalised' skin. I'm just so excited that the claims that these products make are actually believable. My skin now has a healthy glow and best of all the dreaded pimples are not returning. I'm looking forward to using more of the different products available to see what great things they can do for my skin!"...Anita Devitt

"I purchased the Botani Skin Rescue Kit, hoping that it would do just that - "Rescue" my skin and yes it did! I have always suffered from getting pimples and even more so since I decided to stop taking oral contraception. The Skin Rescue Kit has been great! I call the Rescue Acne Cream my "MIRACLE" cream, it is fantastic! I dab a bit on if I feel a pimple coming on and it calms it down and gets rid of it before it has a chance to form - I love it! I am recommending it to friends and hope they love it as much as I do. Thank you"….Narelle - Port Hedland W.A.

"All is well - skin clearing up nicely - developed a couple more ingrowns - Rescue Acne Cream works well - am shaving with Purify Facial Cleanser - threw all other products away... will keep you posted - thanks for your help"…Chad

"I have been using Botani products for over a year now, and I've never once regretted using them. My skin is that of a typical teenager - oily and very sensitive. I typically get pimples in the T-zone (forehead, nose and chin), yet dry skin over the cheek area.
After trying products which claimed to be hypo-allergenic for over 5 years, I found that they were doing very little for my skin and still irritating it. I also found it difficult to find the time to use the cleanser, toner and moisturiser.
I now use a cleanser/moisturiser which not only thoroughly moisturises my skin without the greasy residue, but is therapeutic and multi-functional to my needs (I can also use it to clean make-up off my face). I also use the "Rescue Acne Cream" l which works really well in clearing my skin of blemishes, and has a really nice smell.
Botani products are highly medicated, simple to use and specific for my individual needs, unlike those skin care products that are mass produced and only suit a particular skin type. Upon using Botani products, my skin has never been clearer. I would (and do) recommend these products to anyone searching for a better natural skin care product, that is inexpensive and easy to use, without the fancy chemicals found in other products"….. Barbara (20yo- student)

She says that it was her patients' suffering that drove her to develop "a natural, safe and effective solution, which could give them the healthy skin they longed for."Her passion is to restore smiles and provide a genuine solution.

Skin Health

Acne is a multi-faceted condition affecting all aspects of our being. It is also one which affects each sufferer differently. In order to manage and treat the problem effectively for long term benefit, it is important to consider an integrated approach which investigates and treats the problem on multiple fronts, including the physical, mental and emotional, in a way which is customised to suit each individual situation.

Acne exists in varying levels of severity, ranging from the appearance of blackheads and whiteheads, to pustules (pus-filled pimples), to the development of severe deeper boil like lesions, known as nodules and cysts. Whilst acne generally appears at the onset of puberty, it can occur in anyone at any age.

What causes Acne?(For more details please read our website.)
Acne is an extremely complex condition, usually caused by a combination of factors.
Genetic predisposition.
Hormonal activity and imbalance.
Excessive sebum production.
Bacterial activity.

Treatment of Acne using a natural, integrated approach

Avoid vigorous and excessive skin cleansing which can result in further irritation. Instead, use Botani Purify Facial Cleanser to gently clean the skin twice daily. The cleanser should be applied with a gentle circular motion. Botani Purify Facial Cleanser also available in Botáni's Skin Rescue Kit that is a specifically designed 3 Step Program for rescuing your skin from acne.

Avoid squeezing pimples at all times - to stop the spread of bacteria and infection and perhaps avert potential scarring.

Do eat a nutritionally balanced diet (3 meals per day) and chew all food properly (be relaxed) for proper digestion. Try to minimise foods high in saturated fats (eg cream, margarine, red meat) and refined carbohydrates (eg. pastries, sweet biscuits, fried foods).

Do learn to manage stress through a number of techniques such as yoga, walking, deep breathing and meditation.

Do incorporate exercise as part of your life. It will assist incombating stress and help to improve circulation, which in turn will assist the skin to function properly.

Do drink plenty of water - an adequate daily intake of approximately 1-1.5 litres helps the body to hydrate.
