The Asso Bar is the only bar of soap that is available with the healing powers of Gold. Included in the list of all natural ingredients is 24 karat gold. It is this 24 karat gold that supposedly contains mystical healing powers with acne  control being one of them. The Asso Bar can be used for any skin type and either gender. Used twice daily, the company promises results right away with visible results in one week. Certainly a unique approach in the world of acne control products.

Healing power of gold

According to the company, gold contains a healing power that has been used for centuries only not widely known. The big name that is thrown out is Cleopatra. That’s right the woman who ruled Egypt back in the days of the Pharaohs supposedly used gold for skin treatment. While this is indeed a marquee name, proving that she did use gold for skin treatment, or even that she had clear skin, is something that is impossible since there were no cameras around back then. Of course the hieroglyphics didn’t portray her with any zits.

How it works

The company says that science has shown that gold improves collagen growth and reduces the breakdown of elastin. Gold stimulates blood flow which in turn increases cell growth, leading to healthy uniform skin. This is great and good blood flow is definitely vital for your health but not for acne free skin. You can wash your face 1,000 times per day and unless you are getting to the root of the problem, all the elastin breaking down power in the world won’t help.

Ingredients

There is no shock that the Asso Bar has decided to go all-natural in its list of ingredients:

* Pure Gold: This is first on the list as it is the main draw for the Asso Bar.

* Vitamin C: Powerful antioxidant. Great for fighting colds but not acne.

* Coconut Oil: Used as a skin softener, but soft skin can have acne too.

* Palm Oil: Used on wounds to aid the healing process. Also used for cooking and blamed for heart disease.

* Herb Oil: Oriental herb found in many hot teas.

* Glycogen: Muscle cell glycogen appears to function as an immediate reserve source of available glucose for muscle cells.

* Aqualene: Not too sure about this one. Sounds like a popular band on YouTube.

Like many acne control products on the market today, the Asso Bar contains many natural ingredients that are vital for your health but not so much for your acne control.

Conclusion

There is an old saying that goes, “Worth its weight in gold.” Seeing as how gold is over $900 per ounce, it is safe to say that the Asso Bar is not. While the Asso Bar does contain some ingredients that will help to keep your skin clean and may even help with the blood flow of your skin, it will not do much to help you with your fight against acne besides get your face clean before you apply an effective product. But for the price, you can get a wide variety of other soaps and cleansers that don’t have gold in them, but will do the same job for a lot less money.
