Cleanse the skin thoroughly before applying medication. Cover the entire affected area with a thin layer 1-3 times daily. Because excessive drying of the skin may occur, start with 1 application daily, then gradually increase to 2-3 times daily if needed or as directed by a doctor. If bothersome dryness or peeling occurs, reduce application to once a day or every other day.
Precautions: For external use only. Ask a doctor or pharmacist before using if you are using other topical acne medications at the same time or immediately following use of this product. This may increase dryness or irritation of the skin. If this occurs, only one medication should be used unless directed by a doctor. When using this product avoid contact with eyes. If contact occurs, flush thoroughly with water. Keep out of reach of children. If swallowed, get medical help or contact a Poison Control Center right away.

Comments about Philosophy Clear Days Ahead Fast-Acting Salicylic Acid Acne Spot Treatment:
I absolutely love this product! I've gone through a few bottles of it, and it continues to work well. One thing I love is how fast it works. It works best on pimples, and sometimes, mine will actually reduce overnight which is amazing. I also like that it doesn't have much of a scent. The only reason that I gave it four stars instead of five is because it doesn't really work of blackheads or whiteheads.

- Works Effectively
Cons
Best Uses

Comments about Philosophy Clear Days Ahead Fast-Acting Salicylic Acid Acne Spot Treatment:
This worked so fast on my chin acne. I've been using the popular TV brand spot treatment for awhile now and I never got the results I got with this. It cleared up blackheads, little pimples under my skin and lightened my acne scars within days. I put it on before bed the first day and saw a difference when I woke up. If you have acne you need this in your life!
Pros
- Hydrates Skin
Cons
- Caused more acne
