Wouldn't it be nice to have clear acne free skin and not have to worry about waking up to yet another bad skin day? Of course it would. And many low moral internet marketers know that's what you want too - you're easy money to them.

They know that they can sell you a useless product with the promise of smooth, clear skin and the guarantee that you can rid yourself of the psychological pain that acne causes . They want you to believe that their "latest breakthrough" or "miracle herb from the rainforests of South America will give you results beyond your wildest dreams - the sad truth is that it's highly unlikely that you'll get any results at all.

How do I know this? Because I've tried just about every product and guide out there, I need to tell you straight that 99% of the products available are completely useless and 99.9% of the people selling them are complete frauds. Of course, there are a few exceptions.

To cut to the chase, I contacted every internet site selling acne "cures" that I could and told them I was either interested in buying their business or acting as a distributor (obviously I can't go into too much detail about what I actually said to them otherwise they'll work out who I am). As soon as these people thought they were going to get a big deal out of this that would make them rich they were unbelievably willing to spill the beans on what they really thought about what they were selling. The results were shocking to say the least.

One owner boasted to me that he knew full well that his information product (a guide to acne treatment at home) was less than useless but that most customers were too stupid to go through the complicated procedure he had set up for them to receive a refund.

Another told me that there was nothing in the herbal formula that she sold that could in any way clear acne, but she knew that acne sufferers were "so desperate they'd buy anything".

These people are laughing all the way to the bank with your money.

I don't really want to leave you feeling so negative after reading this, the good news is that there are several acne treatment programs out there that really do work. It just takes a long time to figure out which ones they are.

There is one product in particular that stands out in my mind, when I approached the website owner (in the way I mentioned above) they really seemed to believe in what they were selling and that it could make a difference to their customers.

I think the lesson from all this is - buyer beware. Especially on the internet where there are many faceless companies fighting for control of our wallets and purses.

All the best in your search for clear skin.
