Why
does skin break out?
Why skin breaks out is a complex issue, and even skincare experts
don’t always agree. Problem skin may arise from a variety
of factors such as diet, stress, environmental factors, cosmetic
allergies and lifestyle. One article published by the Food and
Drug Administration claims that 85% of the U.S. population aged
12 to 25 experiences some kind of skin trouble, and that heredity
appears to be a major factor (Willis, 1995). How
long can I expect it to take to see results?
The majority of our customers report positive improvement
in their skin within a few days, although it may take longer
for others. Due to your individual genetics, lifestyle and
diet your skin is just as unique as you are, so it’s
impossible to accurately predict a standard response time
for everyone that uses CS5.
Are some groups of people more
likely to see results?
People of all different genders, ages and ethnic backgrounds
have used CS5 with favorable results. From children as young
as eleven to adults well into their fifties.
Will my skin get worse before it
gets better?
Generally speaking, no. Your skin should show signs of improvement
relatively soon after using CS5. However, a few people have
experienced a better-to-worse progression for the first two
weeks, with gradual but steady improvement to clearer skin
in the next four weeks.
How should I clean my skin before
using CS5?
We suggest you use a cleansing lotion or mild soap to clean
your face prior to use. For your back, scrub with a firm body
brush or loofa. Be sure to thoroughly dry your skin prior
to application.
Can I use a moisturizer or MAKE-UP
over CS5?
Both sunscreen and make-up can be applied over the topical
spray once it has dried completely. Since CS5 includes an
amino acid based moisturizer, applying an additional moisturizer
is not necessary for most people.

How
long should I use CS5 before I can judge if it will work?
We suggest using CS5 consistently for at least 45 days to
determine how well it will work for you, though many people
will see results sooner.
Will CS5 continue to improve my
complexion?
Everyone’s skin is different. However, many people have
reported that their skin has continued to improve in both
clarity and softness the longer they use CS5, even after their
primary skin complaints have been resolved.
Once my skin clears up, should
I continue using CS5?
Some maintenance is required to retain the clearer complexion
you’ve achieved. Many people find they are able to cut
back to one application of CS5 per day, while others may require
more frequent applications. Without maintenance symptoms may
reappear.
Can I use other products with CS5?
If you are currently using antibiotics to treat a skincare
condition and want to change to CS5 please consult a doctor
prior to making any change in your program. If you do decide
to make a change we suggest you use them both for a month,
and then with your doctor’s permission, consider discontinuing
the antibiotics. A recent study suggests that the long-term
use of antibiotics to treat skin problems may not only be
ineffective, but may also contribute to the creation of skin
bacteria that are more virulent and resistant to antibiotics.
