From Painful Cysts to Clear Skin: My Journey with Simplicite's Acne Treatment
Simplicité Herbal Skin Cleanser Capsules Review
by Tanya P, Canberra ACT
“After struggling with painful hormonal cystic acne for over a year, I finally found a natural acne treatment that worked—without antibiotics, Roaccutane, or harsh skincare products. Simplicité’s Herbal Skin Cleanser capsules and plant-based skincare routine cleared my skin quickly and gently.”
My Journey with Hormonal Cystic Acne
Each month before my period, I’d develop 2–4 deep, painful cysts on my chin, jawline, and temples. These breakouts lasted for weeks and left behind indented acne scars. Over-the-counter creams didn’t help, and prescription antibiotics like Doxycycline and Minocycline offered only temporary relief.
When my dermatologist suggested Roaccutane, I hesitated. My brother had used it and experienced raw, flaking skin—and still had scarring. I wanted a gentler, more natural solution.

Turning to Simplicité
I contacted Robin from Simplicité, having used their products before with great results for my sensitive skin. She recommended a holistic acne treatment using Simplicité’s plant-based skincare and internal support.
My Routine
- Morning & evening: Plant Gel Cleanser (combination/oily skin)
- Nightly: One Step Exfoliating Cleanser
- Targeted treatment: Acne Anti-Bacterial Serum
- Internal support: Herbal Skin Cleanser capsules (3 capsules, twice daily with meals)
Fast Results
Within one month, I had no premenstrual cystic acne. When I reduced the capsule dose, two small pimples appeared—but they were tiny and disappeared quickly with the serum. I returned to the full dose and maintained clear skin.
For Scarring
- Antioxidant Plant Serum (nightly)
- Rosehip and Lavender Complexion Refiner (weekly)
After four months, even the shallow scars had faded. My skin was clear, smooth, and scar-free.
Long-Term Use
As of 2019, I continue using Herbal Skin Cleanser capsules (3 twice daily), One Step Exfoliating Cleanser, and Antioxidant Plant Serum for anti-ageing. Simplicité worked when conventional medicine didn’t—and helped me avoid the scarring others in my family experienced.
Thank you, Simplicité—and thank you Robin and David.
