I know I promised to write a review after I finished the second box, but I decided to try it for a few more months before I write about it. [...] And here's the long-awaited review!

Who should consume Clear Activ?
It is suitable for people who have acne problems.
How To Use:
- If you are having outbreaks, take 2 sachets daily.
- If you have acne-prone skin, take 1 sachet daily.
- If you get pimples occasionally, take 1 sachet every 2 days for maintenance.
Simply mix a sachet into 80ml of water. It is recommended to consume before breakfast or before bedtime, and it can be served chilled for a delicious taste.
The drink tastes like a combination of peach and passion fruit. In my opinion, it tastes better when chilled. So I usually just mix it with ice water.
Tried and Tested
Just some side information: During the trial test, I stopped using Hiruscar Post Acne Gel, so that I can test the effectiveness of this product in treating post acne marks/scars, which it claims to do. But I'm still using skin care products designed for acne-prone skin — Etude House AC Clinic range.
After taking Kinohimitsu Clear Activ for four months, I have noticed that it speeds up the healing process of my pimples and post acne marks/scars. It also reduced my acne outbreaks as well. FYI, I will still get pimples, but it's only a few zits and happens only once in a while. So I would say it doesn't totally stop acne from coming out to play, but it greatly reduces the occurrence and keeps them at bay. Aside from that, I also noticed my skin is smoother and less oilier.
Here's the BEFORE and AFTER pictures:
Bear in mind that it took me four months to get this results. So don't expect miracle to happen overnight; it takes time. Also take note that the results may vary individually. Some may see immediate results while others may take longer time.
For your information, I took 5 boxes of Clear Activ in total. Initially, when I was having outbreaks, I took 2 sachets daily. (That means a box can only lasts for 15 days.) Then when my pimples were healed and left with only post acne marks/scars, I reduced to 1 sachet daily. Currently, I'm taking 1 sachet every 2 days to maintain my skin condition.
Overall, I would say it works to clear acne and fade post acne marks/scars from the inside out, and keeps them at bay — but it takes time and lots of patience.
