Remove Toxins

Zilch Acne Formula supports the body to eliminate toxin build up that can cause breakouts.

Boost Blood Circulation

Poor circulation can lead to blockages, stagnation and swelling, resulting in deeper and sore nodules. Ingredients in Zilch Acne Formula encourage blood circulation to stop this stagnation from happening.

Zilch Acne Formula is made from 100% natural herbal ingredients, however, there are no studies with newborns and infants as subjects, and therefore are unable to say if it is safe or unsafe for breastfeeding mothers and their babies.

You are able to crush the tablets and mix them into water, but the herbs are very bitter. It is not a taste that you could disguise in a smoothie!

Our advice if you cannot swallow them, is to crush them, add a little warm water and mix until dissolved into a liquid and quickly drink it!

Dissolving the tablets do not change the efficacy of Zilch Acne Formula, and is completely safe.

Our formula is batch made, and is made from raw herbal ingredients that are sourced when ordered.

None of our ingredients are synthesised like most supplements on the market and cannot be compared. The extraction process is also highly specialised, allowing us to make the tablets with absolutely no additives or preservatives. Zilch Acne Formula is also patent protected.

Put simply: there are a lot of costs for us to produce this highly specialised product. One bottle contains a really large amount, lasting 30-60 days. There are many other reasons for the price tag, but we are a small and very honest company, and pride ourselves on our transparency and customer service. Thanks for your support.

Zilch Acne Formula is batch made from scratch when we place an order with our manufacturer.

Raw herbs have to be sourced, and then go through stringent quality testing before they can be processed. The extraction process to transform it from a raw herb into a tablet form is made up of many stages. It then needs to go through another few rounds of testing, before its passed and released for dispatch. Once it’s dispatched from the factory, it is freighted to us and must pass customs and quarantine checks before being delivered our warehouse.

This whole process can take up to 4 months, but it does make for a very specialised product. As they always say–good things come to those who wait.

Please store in a cool and dry environment, under 30 degrees celcius (86 Fahrenheit).Moisture will cause the tablets to darken as our supplements contain potato starch as a binder, however this should not change the efficacy of the product.
