Pore Clogging Ingredients

If you are trying to clear your acne, check the ingredients on all hair, skin care, and makeup products.  Even if the front of the product says "dermatologist tested", "non-comedogenic" or "acne safe", you still need to carefully check the ingredient list.  It does't matter what the label says or implies.  Become your own "acne detective".  It takes some work, but the payoff is huge - NO MORE ACNE.  Use the list below to make informed decisions when choosing what to use on your skin. I've placed it here on my website so you cant print it out or just pull it up on your phone when your at the cosmetic counter.

What Our Clients Are Saying

"It's hard to even put into words the experience I recently had with Kimberlee.  Two years ago, I was diagnosed with breast cancer and had bilateral mastectomy.  By her amazing talent and work, I can feel whole again.  She tattooed 3D areola and nipples on me and she did a beautiful job.  She is kind, compassionate, and caring.  She several times cried with me and I know she felt just as much joy as I did when she was done.  I felt very calm in her office and I was able to relax and feel peace.  I would highly recommend her to anyone."
