After your skin has cleared you should only need to apply a 10-20 minute mask one or two times a week to prevent clogged pores, maintain clear and healthy skin, and keep your pimples at bay. If you do get the occasional pimple just spot treat it with LEROSETT®. The sooner you get LEROSETT® on the new pimple the better.

LEROSETT® contains natural minerals like ZINC that minimize sebaceous oil gland production, thereby ending the cycle of problem skin over time. The Active ZINC in LEROSETT® is known to effectively fight bacteria in the same way as many antibiotics but without any destructive effect. Just a few mask applications a week will keep oil production low and prevent problem skin from reappearing. LEROSETT® is great for your skin even if you don't have problem skin. There is no better clean than after a LEROSETT® full facial mask. You'll love the feeling.

Once your problem skin is gone, one 2.5oz tube of LEROSETT® can last 3 to 6 months when used for problem skin prevention as a mask a few times a week with the occasional spot treatment.

We have photos with charts on various types of problem skin and acne.

This is a tough one. Since everybody is different, it's difficult to say. The rule is that you apply more in the beginning and less as your skin clears.

Every time you use a full mask you will remove some of the impurities, oil, etc. If you remove more than you naturally add, your skin will clear. If you add more impurities than you're removing by using LEROSETT® your skin will not clear. There is a balance and each person needs to find where they need to be. As your skin clears, you'll have less impurities and therefore need less LEROSETT®.

LEROSETT® is easy to use. It's only a question of how much to use, how often, and in what combination of the mask and the dotting methods. That's it.

LEROSETT® is the best approach to problem skin. LEROSETT® literally grabs the bacteria, oil and dead skin cells in your pores and pulls them out. There is no chemical or drug reaction like some drug treatments.

Note: An easy way to do 2 masks a day without too much trouble.

As soon as you wake up put on a thin clay mask. Let it dry while you make coffe, eat, etc. Then take it off in the shower. If it takes more than 10 minutes to dry its probably too thick. Also, by rubbing the clay into your skin, it will dry faster and go deeper into your pores.

Then, just before you go to bed, put on a thin mask. If you're in a rush you can even use a little help from a hair dryer. (Dont burn yourself.)

If your mask takes 30 minutes to dry it is far to thick and won't work better. Two thin masks are much better than one thick mask.

In 10%-15% of cases, oil and impurities that lay under the skin and in the follicle will be drawn out with initial use, causing what may appear to be more problem skin. LEROSETT® does NOT cause pimples or problem skin. These impurities must be removed for your skin to become clear. Stay consistent and don't give up; you will soon reach a clear point. If you choose not to remove these impurities you may lose any chance of clearing your skin in a healthy manner.

LEROSETT® does not cause problem skin. All the impurities, oils, toxins, problem skin, etc., must go somewhere. There can be a purging period for some people. This can take one day or several days. Purging is a GOOD thing. After every application your skin will get a little better and you will reach a clear point. As long as you stick with it your skin will clear.

If your problem skin seems to get worse and you quit using LEROSETT® after just a few days, you may have lost any real chance of clearing your skin in a healthy and safe manner. Dont give up, LEROSETT® will eventually pull out all the bad stuff. It's a fact.

LEROSETT® is a heat treated, drug free, non-allergenic 100% organic clay that can be used in combination with other products.

As a rule, avoid using products that contain oil when you have problem skin, pimples etc. Many oils are highly comedogenic. They can clog your pores and make your skin worse. Oils that are particularly comedogenic are cocoa butter, mineral, corn, olive, avocado, peach, almond, linseed, castor, grape, lanolin, mink, peanut, safflower, sesame or sunflower oil.

LEROSETT® is extremely effective for many types of problem skin including blackheads, white heads, inflamed problem skin, cystic pimples, seborreheic dermatitis, papules, pustules and more.

LEROSETT® has even been known to be effective towards rosacea, many types skin of rash, insect bites and many other common skin problems.

Yes, using a moisturizer after applying LEROSETT® is always recommended and using a sun screen is always a good idea as well. Use a minimum of SPF30 but apply the sunscreen after applying Gunilla products.

Before applying a sunscreen, use an oil-free botanically based moisturizer like LEROSETT® Moisturizer, Healing Serum or one of our ÄKTA Moisturizers. These moisturizers will deeply penetrate into your skin infusing all the enzymes, vitamins and antioxidants your skin needs to look it's best. Then you can cover the nutrient layer with a sunscreen. It can be very difficult to find a botanically based sun screen with a natural preservative.

Why is there no sunscreen in Gunilla of Sweden® Products?

To maintain high organic content we do not include sun screen ingredients.

1. Confirmation: Confirm that you do have pimples related to clogged pores or follicles and not Rosecea, sun rash, a staff infection of the follicle, other rashes or a similar skin disorder.

2. Acne drugs: If you just stopped using anti-bacterial acne drugs your skin may go through an accelerated bacterial phase. Your skin can get worse for a short period of time. Since you're no longer using anti-bacterial drugs your skin may need time to regulate itself. LEROSETT® will still draw out oil, impurities etc. but may not be as effective during the initial weaning period.

3. Purging phase: In 10%-15% of cases, oil, impurities, etc., that lay under the skin and in the follicle will be drawn out with initial use, causing what may appear to be more problems. LEROSETT® does NOT cause pimples. These impurities must be removed from under the skin and within the follicle for your skin to clear. Stay consistent and don't give up; you will soon reach a clear point. If you do give up you may lose any chance of clearing your skin in a healthy manner.

4. New pimples: If you only spot treat individual pimples and new pimples keep popping up in other places (on your forehead, t-zone, cheeks etc.) it means you're not preventing the growth of new pimples by using LEROSETT® as a mask. LEROSETT® prevents problem skin by removing follicular seed clogs and minimizing oil production through mineral adsorption. A follicular clog seed can take up to 3-5 weeks to manifest itself as a pimple. You can prevent seeding by applying a thin layer of LEROSETT® as a mask 1-3 times daily (depending on skin sensitivity.) During this 3-5 week period, the pimples that you normally would have had in 3-5 weeks will not appear. Unfortunately, seeding or clogging can easily occur if you skip daily or bi-daily full mask applications.

Final note: Fighting problem skin, especially long term difficult problem skin, is a fight! You have to work at it every day and most important of all, you have to be consistent and not give up.

If you are having difficulty please contact one of our skin care professional either by email, chat or call 866-551-5505.

There are no negative side effects.
If you use too much, your skin can dry some but its not from chemicals. It's just from too much moisture being pulled out. Rehydrate with LEROSETT® Moisturizer or Healing Serum when needed.

Yes, you can use LEROSETT® on your back, chest, arms, legs or anywhere you have problem skin, pimples, ingrown hairs, blackheads and blemishes.

Yes. However, LEROSETT® is considered to be the most powerful natural product there is for pimples and if you have dry or sensitive skin you should test your skin by applying LEROSETT® to a small area first or only directly on the pimple. In the case of dry and sensitive skin it is very important to use a moisturizer that is not water based and contains no oils, alcohol or added drying elements. About 4% of customers experience dry skin but this can be resolved by only applying LEROSETT® to the pimple itself not the skin around the pimple. Don't forget to add moisture.

If you do have sensitive skin, LEROSETT® will be the least likely to cause problems. There is nothing in LEROSETT® that will damage your skin.

LEROSETT® Moisturizer "Moisture Matte" is the only organic moisturizer that uses 100% organic, greenhouse and hydroponically grown aloe as the main moisturizing element, instead of water. If you have very dry skin, you can combine half LEROSETT® Clay and LEROSETT® Moisturizer. Leave the mask on for 30 minutes. It will not dry but you will get much of the positive effects of the clay.

No, LEROSETT® can stay in an unopened tube for over 7 years. Once opened, LEROSETT® will last for years as long as the cap is put back on after use. LEROSETT® will eventually just dry into a harmless powder.

However, the other LEROSETT® items use hydroponically grown nutrient rich aloe as the 1st ingredient not water and no harsh preservatives. The moisturizer, clear skin face wash, acne face wash, toner, pore minimizer and healing serum should be kept away from heat and sunlight. Since these products truly are organic plant based they will not last as long as the water and chemical preservative based products available at mass markets. Products that use water as the 1st ingredient are usually over 80% water and won't have the nutrients your skin needs. WATER IS ONLY GOOD FOR YOUR SKIN IF YOU DRINK IT!

Yes. LEROSETT® is just a natural clay and distilled water, so there can't be many other products that could be much safer. There are many opinions about what drugs are and aren't safe. Just use LEROSETT® and you can avoid the entire issue and still get great looking skin. If you choose to use one of the LEROSETT® Organic Acne Systems, request non-medicated so you can avoid risks all together.

Yes. LEROSETT® has been shown to be effective for ingrown hair, razor burn, seborrheic dermatitis, itching, rashes and pre/post waxing. Due to the effective exfoliating properties, LEROSETT® can be used as a face wash and as a mask for the above conditions.

LEROSETT® Clay Treatment should never be frozen. If frozen, the ingredients will separate and cannot be used. Excessive heat will not damage the clay.

The LEROSETT® moisturizer, cleanser, toner and pore minimizer are botanically based and should be kept away from heat. These products do not use chemical preservatives and should be used within a few months after purchase.

Yes, LEROSETT® can be used by men and women of all ages from infant to seniors as well as nursing and pregnant women.

Gunilla of Sweden® has made professional medical grade skin care products for over 25 years. Our products have only been advertised within the skin care profession, dermatologists, estheticians and others, not to the general public.
From 1985 to 2008, LEROSETT® was only sold to dermatologists, estheticians and other professionals for use in spas and medical clinics. It was only in 2008 that Gunilla of Sweden®, the makers of LEROSETT®, offered their products directly to the end consumer. All Gunilla of Sweden® products are only available through licensed skin care professionals, spas, medical clinics and this site.

Why is LEROSETT® not sold on TV?
LEROSETT® products other than clay are based on hydroponically greenhouse grown botanicals and they cannot be mass produced to the degree of millions of bottles a year. Products sold on TV usually have one thing in common, "#1 ingredient is water". They are made of mostly water, this is why they are easy to mass produce and sell by the millions for under $7 each. LEROSETT® products often sell out and we must wait for the next greenhouse growing cycle to produce more. The clay in LEROSETT® undergoes a tedious heat treatment that minimizes its production to some degree as well. LEROSETT® clay is almost always sold in a 3 or 4 part system with the aloe based moisturizer, face wash or toner.

Mass produced skin care products sold at the grocery store, department stores and especially sold on TV, contain mostly water with some antibacterial drugs and other chemicals. LEROSETT® products contain over 65% "nutrient rich" Active Botanical Content™ not water. They are based on our indoor "hydroponically" grown, 100% organic aloe that will heal skin better than any other natural skin care ingredient, especially water. This is why Gunilla of Sweden® products cost more. They are over 65% botanical, not 80% water.

No. Unlike other products that contain chemicals and oil, LEROSETT® Organic Clay Treatment contains no oils, added chemicals or natural herbs that can make your skin worse.

Avoid using products that contain oil when you have problem skin. Many oils are highly comedogenic. They clog your pores and make your skin look worse, especially cocoa butter, olive, peach, almond, linseed, castor, grape, lanolin, mink, peanut, safflower, sesame or sunflower oil.
Oil based skin care products are for the body or feet but not the skin on your face.

Yes. LEROSETT® products are more effective when used as a system. However, not everyone uses each item at the same rate. You may run out of Acne Face Wash before you run out of Clay. Therefore, you can order each item individually. You can also use each item individually. Many users are fine with only the LEROSETT® Clay Treatment and the LEROSETT® Moisturizer.

You will be given a 10% off promo code after your first purchase and if you order more product you will be sent a higher promo code. The most cost effective way is to buy during our Members Only Seasonal specials that are sent out quarterly.

Yes, Gunilla of Sweden® products may clear up dark spots and help fade discoloration on all skin types. The key to drug and bleach free safe lightening of dark spots, also known as post-inflammatory hyper-pigmentation, is to exfoliate away the skin's dead top cellular layers. ÄKTA® 10% Alpha Hydroxy Treatment, LEROSETT® Organic Acne Face Wash "medicated" and the LEROSETT® 100% Organic Clay Treatment are all products that effectively exfoliate, allowing for new cell growth. The ÄKTA® 10% Alpha Hydroxy Treatment is a good start; try to catch the dark spots as early as possible.

No. There are many reasons why your not getting clearer as quickly as you would like.

The #1 reason has been shown to be the application method or not using 2 full facial masks per day every day continuously for 12-21 days.
The #2 reason is purging. In 10%-15% of problem skin cases, oil and impurities that lay under the skin and in the follicle will be drawn out with initial use, causing what may appear to be more pimples. LEROSETT® does NOT cause pimples. These impurities must be removed for your skin to become clear. Your body will not absorb impurities, they all must come out. Stay consistent and don't give up; you will soon reach a clear point. Purging is often misunderstood and most people do not experience visible purging. Your pores must clear from below the surface before the surface of your skin can clear. Sometimes purging can take a while and you may need to use more clay more often.

The #3 reason is detox issues. (Using too many acne drugs for too long of a period.) Benzoyl peroxide and other drugs are anti bacterial and meant to be used on a short term basis. When you stop using anti-bacterials your skin can go into a type of shock and not be able to properly fight off the bacteria it would naturally be able to deal with. Acne drugs that are safer are exfoliating medications like salicylic acid or clays that draw out impurities. Bacteria growing in a pimple is only a side effect of the clog that started the pimple. If you kill all the bacteria you will still have clogs and still get pimples. Removing comedones clogs is more important than killing bacteria. People with no acne still have lots of bacteria on their face but they have less microcomedones.
