Eat a Chocolate Bar to CURE pimples?
Ingestible Skin care, what goes in eventually comes out right? Now chocoholics can munch away and feel absolutely guilt free thanks to a California entrepreneur called Scott-Vincent Borba who manufactures a range of ‘ingestible skin care’ products including a ‘Chocolate Clarifying Bar’. The zit-zapping confection contains Borba's "Skin Balance Clarifying Aqua-Less Crystalline Powder" to remove toxins and improve skin clarity and the powder contains a cultivated bio-vitamin complex which helps the skin regenerate its natural support system. So instead of avoiding chocolate in order to avoid those nasty spots and pimples, it seems the cause has now become the remedy. Sounds too good to be true huh? Mr Borba also has a range of what he calls “skin-gestibles” in a delicious water or powder packet form. He says “If you put good things into your body, your skin should reap the benefits,you already drink water and you already eat candy and chocolate, so I am putting skin care into your water and your candy and your chocolate.” Ahh well....... For decades, cosmetic companies have manufactured face creams that offer hope in a jar, why not a chocolate bar? Although one does tend to worry, you know what they say about too much of a good thing!
