The Clear Gift for Your Skin™ GoClear™ launches the first acne dedicated skincare line specifically designed for everyone. Whom You Know Recommends Step 3 GoClear MOISTURIZING SUNSCREEN SPF 15
Acne is one of the most pervasive skin care problems and often the one that millions of people cite as their biggest complexion concern. Yet despite the hundreds of products on the market, few are able to address the full range of symptoms that acne sufferers of all ages, skin types and skin tones face. GoClear, a new exclusively acne-focused prestige skincare line introduces its easy to use and broadly targeted 3-step acne and blemish regimen to treat and help prevent mild to moderate acne breakouts. The GoClear line through its innovative formulation also helps address the hyperpigmentation and skin discoloration that can persist long after the blemish is gone.
The GoClear 3-step Acne and Blemish Regimen was developed under the direction of Dr. Alan R. Gottlieb, MD, MPH, GoClear’s founder and CEO, to treat acne sufferers of any age and skin type, and all skin tones. The concept behind the company’s ClearCulture™ Skincare design is that acne care products can and should be maximally effective, yet friendly to everyone regardless of age, skin type, or ethnicity, an inspiration that Dr. Gottlieb credits to his own mixed-ethnicity children.
GoClear accomplishes this by thoughtfully combining medicinal and high-grade active botanical ingredients in products that are all oil-free and allergy tested. They also do not contain alcohol, propylene glycol, PABA, lanolin, artificial dye or fragrance, ingredients that can be irritating especially to sensitive and darker pigmented skin, and that may lead to or prolong the dark spots that can linger after a blemish has been treated. GoClear does not formulate with benzoyl peroxide. GoClear believes that everyone should limit their exposure to irritating skin care ingredients.
In an independent clinical study of the GoClear Intensive Acne Treatment - Salicylic Acid 2% conducted on people of all skin tones (Fitzpatrick Scale I-VI), all panelists stated that the acne treatment easy to use, and a 66% improvement in acne severity was achieved after three weeks of use. By the end of the 6-week study 97% of all panelists had experienced a decrease in their total number of acne blemishes.
While the GoClear 3-Step Acne and Blemish Regimen is easy to use and effective, each product was designed for stand-alone use as well, or as a complement to an existing skin care program.
The centerpiece of the line, the GoClear Intensive Acne Treatment - Salicylic Acid 2%, is an over-the-counter acne treatment lotion containing maximum strength salicylic acid in both quick and sustained-release forms. Botanical and other natural ingredients help calm the skin and reduce the appearance of redness. It can be used by anyone of any age or skin type to treat persistent acne as well as an ‘emergency’ treatment for the occasional breakout.
Rounding out the 3-step acne and blemish regimen are a luxurious oil-free lathering gel cleanser and a light daytime moisturizer with SPF 15.

Our beauty panel put this to the test, and they raved:
Go Clear Moisturizing Sunscreen is a great way to keep your skin tone in shape. This product is designed for all skin tones and types. It's a great moisturizer that helps protect your skin from the harsh sun. I love the awesome oil-free formula. It contains no harsh chemicals so I don't have to worry about my face reacting oddly. It's a light cream, not heavy or greasy. It goes on smooth and clear. I love that I don't have to worry about white residue on my face. I can't believe how matte the finish looks also once you have applied the moisturizer to your face. It's great to use underneath makeup.
After using the Go Cleanser in the morning, I followed it by applying the Moisturizing Sunscreen SPF 15. I know that if you use products from within the same line, the effects of the product are heightened. This allows you to achieve the results promised by the skincare line. It felt like this moisturizer was made just for me. I have a tendency to get excessively oily in the summer. Staying away from oil free moisturizers is the way to go for me, but some make my skin feel tight and dry. This moisturizer was so light and airy that it didn’t leave my skin looking greasy or shiny. At the same time, it provided enough moisture for my skin to be hydrated (all day!!!). I felt it seep into my pores, minimizing their appearance. Furthermore, it kept my skin from getting oily throughout the day, a problem I deal with when using other moisturizers. And who doesn’t appreciate that there’s an SPF 15 in it, which keeps you protected from the damaging effects of the sun.
