Overview

The effectiveness of 'Skin Balance' is difficult to definitively assess due to the use of a proprietary herbal blend, which means the exact dosages of individual ingredients within the 1949 mg proprietary blend are unknown. While many of the individual herbs in the blend have scientific research supporting their traditional uses, particularly for anti-inflammatory, hepatoprotective, and detoxification effects, the lack of transparency in dosing prevents a thorough evaluation of whether these ingredients are present at clinically effective levels. No direct clinical trials on this specific 'Skin Balance' product were found, meaning its overall efficacy for skin health relies largely on the traditional basis of its components.

The Bad
