SEAN PERRY: Treatment of acne using indigenous plant extracts

Problem and implemented solution

Acne is a predominant dermatological condition upsetting a significant measure of the worldwide population. Acne is caused by an interplay of genetic and environmental factors and is generally triggered by hormonal changes accompanying sexual maturation during adolescence. While numerous treatments exist, comprising topical medications and oral therapies, there is an emergent demand for harmless, more effectual, and non-invasive substitutes. This project’s proposal aims to develop innovative cosmetic product (s) specifically designed to target and treat acne, affording a better-quality solution for persons suffering from this condition. There is no SA black owned premium organic beauty and skincare development and manufacturing company that caters for local beauty and skincare needs, specifically for treatment of acne using indigenous plant extracts and in addition is agile and can develop customized products. SEAN PERRY specifically uses a unique biodegradable formulation with extracts from the South African seeds, plants and flowers. The further uniqueness lies in the fact that SEAN PERRY products are made of 99% of the natural ingredients that are organically grown, without pesticides or chemical fertilizers and are not genetically modified. The ability to formulate products, using such ingredients and considering local needs at a reasonable price is what differentiates SEAN PERRY. All skin types, race and age can use the products without any damage to the skin. Some of the products have natural antioxidants which aids in slowing down the ageing process and reduces fine wrinkles and tendency to red botches without of use of preventatives or chemicals. The solution SEAN PERRY is offering is purely organic products specifically designed to prevent severe medical attention should a person (including kids) consume or spray a product on eyes by mistake and also when the products are spilled on the ground, because of the biodegradability properties, they will not harm the environment (soil, water and air).
