Clearasil
Clearasil, the first effective acre medication, was invented by Ivan Combe in New York, in 1950. Clearasil was originally designed to fight the clogged pores of teenagers.
In 1959, a marketing campaign for Clearasil was formally launched in the U.S. Two years later, Combe sold the Clearasil product line to Richardson-Vicks, a consumer-based pharmaceutical company. Recently, in 2005, Boots Healthcare International, a UK-based company, purchased Clearasil from Procter & Gamble.
Today, Clearasil remains a strong name compared to other acne medication in 64 countries. Its product line includes daily cleansers, astringent cleansing pads and topical acne treatment creams. Clearasil also has a well formulated line for men and for those with sensitive skin.
