Actual Tiege Hanley customer testimonial:
“Over a 3 year period, I probably spent over two grand in skin care and still had acne. I decided to reach out and request to be a part of the Tiege Hanley Acne trial and I have been blown away. After two weeks, my skin was clear. It’s not the acne cream alone that cleared it up, but how all of the products work together as a whole.” Kyle B., NJ.
Dermatological Tips
- Antioxidants can be used in both the morning and evening, but they are best used as part of your morning regimen. That way, you get the most benefit during the day, when environmental exposure is highest.
- Pair Alfalfa Extract with ingredients that can be otherwise drying to prevent flakiness and irritation.
