ClearPores vs. Exposed

ClearPores and Exposed each have their own share of fans, and both make equally strong claims about their effectiveness in fighting acne. But between these two products, which is a better buy?

To answer this question, we looked at the top reviews for both products and online customer feedback on four key factors.

Mode of Treatment

ClearPores and Exposed are both multi-step systems, but where ClearPores combines topical cures with a nutritional supplement to address acne externally and internally, Exposed only has a series of creams and serums to do the whole job of keeping acne at bay. If you want supplements from Exposed, you’ll have to buy a separate pack of skin care capsules. Meanwhile, ClearPores also has separate treatment lines for facial acne and body acne, while Exposed doesn’t distinguish from the two in its current offerings.

Ease of Use

This is a crucial area of difference where ClearPores has a clear advantage. Many users bemoaned the time consuming application of Exposed’s range, which may involve four to six steps depending on the kit you purchase. It also doesn’t help that each step requires you to dry your face before application which eats up even more time. On the other hand, ClearPores only has two topical applications, a cleanser and protection cream, which can be applied quickly at mornings and evenings. Its third component, the herbal supplement, can be taken twice any time of the day.

Results

Across the board majority of the reviews and user feedback for ClearPores and Exposed suggest that both products are indeed effective in treating acne and breakouts. However, Exposed can’t provide protection against future breakouts, and missing out on it by even a day can spur new acne. ClearPores appears to do a better job overall, because it comes with an internal acne treatment component with its herbal supplements, which combats the root causes of acne and problematic skin within the body.

Price Points and Guarantee

Exposed costs slightly less than ClearPores and has a good one year money-back guarantee against ClearPores’ maximum six-month money-back guarantee. Unfortunately, some disgruntled customers claim that Exposed 60-day supply actually only lasts half as long which definitely tips the balance back to ClearPores in terms of overall value.

Final Verdict

Exposed is an effective acne treatment, but only for existing acne. There are also concerns that it might cause further breakouts instead of prevent them. Those who might want to buy it for its price should also take heed of warnings from other users of its deceptive claims on their product’s longevity.
