Made me break out terribly
I am not one to normally write reviews but I feel inclined to save anyone else out there thinking of adding this to their anti-acne routine. I have used the Clinique Clinical Clearing gel for years and love it! I still get hormonal breakouts on my chin though and thought this would help if I added i...

Since I had this product recommended to me I have been using it and provides very good results on my skin.
Highly recommend
So i ordered this product online without reading the description. I was expecting an actual LOTION not liquid. However, since it was pricey and im desperate to relieve my acne, i decided to try it. Id definitely call this more of a "toner" bc you apply with a cotton ball and its a bottle of liquid. I will say that it makes my skin feel soooo soft and is not overdrying. I was looking for an acne treatment moisturizing lotion, but i am surprised and delighted with the benefits. I have used it twice already on my skin and neck and my skin feels soooo soft and smooth and its definitely shrinking the blemishes i have. Although i was initially disaapointed its not a "lotion" i am pleased with the effectiveness and will more than likely purchase again. Once it dries on your skin, id recommend throwing a moisturizer on top to prevent excess drying out.
Texture noticeably better
Greatly improved my skin texture. A little pricey but for sure worth it.
45 with acne
Really controls acne breakout, I wear makeup 5 days out the week which in sure clog pores. I haven't had any breakouts since buying this product, I'm highly pleased. I use it once a week on my 12yr old because it is strong, but she have regular ance for someone facing puberty. I use this product 3x a week myself.
Love this
I've been using this for over 10 years and i'll never use anything else. Makes my skin feel clean and it really works well for me. I use this along with the treatment gel and face wash. Absolutely love it
