Comments about La Roche Posay Effaclar Serum:
I have had severe adult acne ever since going off the birth control pill the past almost 2 years. I also have extremely oily skin. I have tried everything! From prescription products from the dermatologist to everything over the counter including Proactiv. Nothing had worked. I had found La Roche Posay online in the past but no stores around me sold it until I went to my Ulta store about 3 months ago and they had begun carrying it! My face is completely acne free since using this line and all I have left are some dark purple acne scars that are fading due to this serum! I cannot live without it. I use it twice per day, in the morning after I cleanse in the shower with the Effaclar Purifying cleanser and get out of the shower this serum is the first thing I put on my face. I then follow with the Effaclar Duo and then the Effaclar M moisturizer. I cannot say enough raves about this product line except for that I wish I had tried it sooner.

Comments about La Roche Posay Effaclar Serum:
Noticeable results within 2 weeks. My skin was smoother, brighter, and acne scars became lighter. I've been wanting to try a glycoclic peel at home, but I'm too afraid to do something drastic to my skin so I opted for this serum since it has glycolic in it. I'm very pleased with this product.

Comments about La Roche Posay Effaclar Serum:
I used this once a day for the past week and I feel like its really making a big difference. I feel like my pores look smaller and my skin looks clearer. I can't believe i'm seeing results this quickly. I'm so happy that my local Ulta started carrying this brand.

Comments about La Roche Posay Effaclar Serum:
This product is great for oily skin AND pventing wrinkles. It makes your skin smooth...you can feel the difference in a couple days.
Comments about La Roche Posay Effaclar Serum:
I have only been using this product for a week and my skin on my cheeks feels tighter. I haven't noticed my pores shrinking yet, but my presumption is that after a few more weeks they should be less visible. It works great mixed-in with your normal moisturizer in the morning.

Comments about La Roche Posay Effaclar Serum:
I've noticed a big difference in size of my pores after using for a few day. It's a bit expensive, but I think it's worth it.
Comments about La Roche Posay Effaclar Serum:
I love this product but I'm making this comment only to say that you can use AHA with retin A like the girl said in the other comment.. The AHA is a very strong acid and it destros the tretinoin, and the retin A became useless.

Comments about La Roche Posay Effaclar Serum:
I have heard that Effaclar Serum was really good for aging acne prone skin. I have been using it at night with my Retin A Micro at night. The glycolic acid helps the Retin A penetrate because it is a chemical exfoliant. I am really pleased with the results.
