A paramedical esthetician, Susan Elizabeth Santsche, presents a YouTube video describing Clear 2 Perfection, a non-comedogenic shampoo and conditioner she developed to prevent cosmetic acne linked to haircare. She explains that many hair products contain comedogenic ingredients that can cause breakouts on the back, neck, and shoulders, and describes replacing those with enzymes (from carrot, mango, pumpkin) and antioxidants (strawberry, kiwi) to improve scalp health and hair shine. She frames the product as bridging clear skin and vibrant hair and urges broader awareness.
Hi, I'm Susan C and T, the owner of the spot Personal Choice and a paramedical esthetician for the last 40 years. I brought you into my skincare room today to talk to you about a product that I have created and what has inspired me to do that clear to perfection is a noncomminogenic hair care shampoo and conditioner. Yes, I said hair care. And you wonder, why am I going to talk about shampoo and conditioner right here in the facial room? Working with acne clients for the last 40 years, what I've realized is we know the ingredients that are going to cause a problem in creating comedicity breakout. We've taken them out of most of our skincare products. What we've noticed is once I started getting people's skin to clear up when they're coming back in for a checkup, it was very apparent that they were getting consistent breakout around their back, neck and shoulders. And what I realized, cosmetic acne, it's a shampoo. So I started reading ingredient deck after ingredient deck, pouring over all the ingredients. And most of the hair care products has very comedogenic ingredients involved in them, even thick, good ones. So we even started asking vendors, when are you just going to create two more products in your corrective skin care? Skin is skin clear to the scalp, so let's just make a complete system. But it never happened. So I went out and I found a cosmetic chemist and we started working and I gave her a list of ingredients that we needed to take out because we knew that we need to take those stabilizing and replace them with things that weren't going to create the cosmetic acne? Then I decided, what can we take out of a skincare product that could really create a great result? And that's when I realized, let's use enzymes. We took the fresh cells from carrot, mango and pumpkin. They are all vitamin A derivatives. Those fresh cells and vitamin A made an incredible difference on the scalp. We all know how vitamin A works with the skin. Retinoic acids, retinols, all of those ingredients can really be a great opportunity for the skin. In our conditioner, we decided to use strawberry and kiwi, and they're great antioxidants. They gave the hair lots of shine and vibrancy. So the enzymes and the antioxidants found in all the fresh fruit and the fresh cells have made an amazing difference for not only their skin, but for their scalp health. 60 million Americans actually have problematic skin. 60 million Americans are actually using shampoo on their hair every single day that's undoing the results that they've spent so much time and money on. Clear perfection strives to bridge the gap between healthy, vibrant hair and self confidence along with clear skin. With the information, we can get a national campaign out and tell people that. Did you know that your shampoo and your conditioner can actually cause a comedogenic reaction? Change your hair care. Change the results. Clear to perfection. It's a clear choice.
