Herborium's "Countdown to Clear Skin" Provides Beauty Tips, Expert Advice and More to Help Participants Beat Acne

FORT LEE, N.J., Nov. 13, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Herborium Group, Inc. (OTC Pink: HBRM) — For the more than 60 million people in the U.S. who suffer from acne, the holidays can be an especially stressful time. While others look forward to attending get-togethers with family and friends, acne sufferers have to worry about outbreaks that can keep them from looking — and feeling — their best. Acne is a skin condition, but it often leaves psychological scars. Herborium Group, Inc., a publicly traded Botanical Therapeutics® company and makers of the breakthrough AcnEase® tablets, is offering a 30-day "Countdown to Clear Skin" event on Facebook and other social media starting November 14, 2012. The company will provide advice and education to help acne sufferers fight back.

With Herborium's "Countdown to Clear Skin" promotion, those who are dealing with acne can learn the basics about the condition with Acne 101 information, explore common myths, and find out what works and what doesn't. By exploring the facts of home remedies, consumers can discover what powerful herbs can be used to properly treat acne from the inside out. Readers can receive an expert's insight of dietary information on how nutrition can affect acne, natural skin care basics and natural make-up tips from a "green" make-up artist to the stars. Herborium's goal is to launch a dialogue with readers on Facebook and other social media outlets, and the company also plans to offer valuable discounts and gifts.

"Most acne products currently on the market and home remedies focus on treating symptoms rather than causes of acne " said Dr. Agnes P. Olszewski, CEO and Chairwoman for Herborium Group. "We're committed to helping people with acne learn as much as they can about the condition and to giving them the tools to combat the underlying causes as well as the symptoms. We want people with acne to look — and feel — great for the holidays, and the 'Countdown to Clear Skin' is our way of giving the gift of healthy skin in the spirit of the season."

To participate in the "Countdown to Clear Skin," people with acne can visit the AcnEase® Facebook page, where the Herborium team will share expert advice, tips, gifts and discounts. The team will provide updates via newsletters, Twitter, Pinterest and encourage a two-way conversation with readers to address their concerns, while providing information to help them improve skin health from the inside out.

Herborium's flagship product, clinically tested AcnEase® tablets, are up to a 95% effective in the treatment of acne and in improving symptoms associated with rosacea. AcnEase® addresses the primary cause of acne, which is overproduction of sebum (skin oil) by sebaceous glands, which leads to localized inflammation and scarring. The proprietary herbal compound works to restore balance and skin health for people who suffer from acne of any type at any age, regardless of skin color and complexion. Using top-quality, all-botanical ingredients, the all natural herbal formula is safe and causes no side effects, such as discoloration or irritation of the skin. There are no contraindications or restrictions on sunlight exposure for AcnEase® as there are for many other types of acne treatments.

Herborium's unique Botanical Therapeutics® product line combines Eastern and Western treatment approaches to give customers the best of both worlds. In addition to AcnEase®, the company offers other Botanical Therapeutics® that address sexual health issues in men and women, energy and stress problems, symptoms of BPH (benign prostate hyperplasia) and other health concerns.
