If you're anything like us, you've searched high and low for a solution to the painful, frustrating, sometimes demoralizing, daily stressor that is acne. You've probably hoped for something powerful and effective enough to clear up stubborn, never-ending breakouts – and maybe you've thought isotretinoin (a.k.a. Accutane, a.k.a. oral retinol) is the only path...

But, isotretinoin can come with some major (and scary) downsides, such as:
• Extreme dryness and flaking (including of lips)
• Anxiety

• Hair thinning

• Headaches
• Even major health side effects, like liver damage


Because of these issues, dermatologists, estheticians, and natural medicine practitioners everywhere are now recommending gentler, non-toxic alternatives to isotretinoin – that don't come with all the side-effects!

So instead of retinol... what about a natural ingredient shown in studies to be 2.5x as effective as retinol, but without the sabotaging side-effects? And that is backed by over 3,000+ published studies to be safe and non-toxic...

Get ready to hear about L'AMARUE everywhere – a brand loved by derms and estheticians. Their patent-pending natural Heart to Heart Complex® technology is the ultimate retinol alternative – and it's beneficial for all types of breakouts, not just surface level.


Unlike typical remedies that address surface issues, this bioactive delves deep into cell signaling, and has been shown in studies to heal inflammation at all severities, speed skin healing by 4x, and boost collagen production by up to 400%.*

Isotretinoin 101

You've likely looked into it... but what does it actually do? And why can it be so harmful?


How It Works:
Isotretinoin (such as Accutane) is a megadose of Vitamin A, and has been shown to shrink your skin's oil glands, preventing acne. The problem? Even the scientists who created its use for acne don't know why it works. They just know that taking enough Vitamin A essentially dries out your body enough that acne stops.

Why Can It Be Harmful?
While Vitamin A is not inherently toxic, the prescription dosage is more than 50 times the daily suggested intake for the compound. This causes your body to go into overdrive, and can impact every organ system.

L'AMARUE's Rescue and Repair Kit is a 100% natural system for treatment-grade results without the harsh, toxic side-effects.

It helps balance oil production just like isotretinoin, but right at the skin level – no systemic side-effects! Rebalance oil production, reduce inflammatory cycles, hydrate deeply, fade dark spots, soothe irritation, and calm redness without all the concerns. The best part?

Here's why L'AMARUE is becoming the new go-to recommendation for clear skin, easily and naturally:

The Face Cream

This is the best acne solution I have ever put on my face.

I have pretty severe cystic breakouts and have tried absolutely everything. I have gone to several dermatologists for temporary fixes and was always too scared to try accutane because of all the side effects. Within a month it has left my skin glowing, clear and even got rid of a lot of my scarring. If you have read the reviews and are skeptical, I understand but this is the only review I have ever written because this stuff is magic. I have been using it for two months now and will never try another product again because this stuff is well worth the investment.  –Ashley R.

The Essential Cleanser

This product delivers on it's promises!

I am 67 and never thought I would have hormonal breakouts at this stage of life. After numerous products I purchased this product and 99% of my breakouts are gone. It took a few months but now I only have an occasional zit which clears up quickly. I am very happy with the product and just purchased my second bottle. 🥰 –Rebecca L.

The Daily Vitamin Serum

100000x YES!

I’ve bever been able to implement any serums into my skincare routine, as none ever showed me results. This one really changed the game though. Right within the first week I started using it, I noticed improvements on my skin. My dark spots brightened up, my pimples healed super fast, and my skin overall looked healthier and more glowy. It instantly became a staple in my morning routine. This is the real deal!!!!!! –Carola D.
