Finally Available in Larger Size!!

I believe this is the same product as the Acne Solutions Spot Healing Gel. It certainly looks, feels and smells the same. I have been buying this product in its smaller size for years and finally it is available in a larger size. It's great for spot treatments but now I am using a light layer on m...

Acne Solution Gel

Ive been using this gel for about two weeks and it's safe to say this product does work. I'm a black female ( light skinned ) and I have very little acne but many blemishes on my face.

This product did help reduce a couple of pimples I had recently. However, I have naturally dry/sensitive skin and this product dried those spots out a LOT! I'm talking peeling, parched, tender dry!! Perhaps I had a reaction but I caution anyone with dry skin or sensitive skin to use this carefully!

Bottom Line No, I would not recommend to a friend

ive been struggling with acne for more than ten years and this has helped me clear my skin way more in less than two weeks than any other product ive used for years. it is very drying but paired with a salicylic acid serum and the cerave moisturizer i literally have glass skin now. definitely worth the money.

I've never really had acne growing up but as I've started to age I have been getting some really stubborn acne. Specifically across my forehead, along my cheek bones and along my jaw line. I was given this product as a free samply and absolutely fell in love with it!! I do have extremely sensitive skin so I only apply directly to my pimples. It works wonders! Those stubborn pimples that stay under the skin, gone! It's like my super hero against these breakouts, finally got my full size and I'm so happy. Had a recent breakout from stress but I know it'll be completely clear in 2 weeks. Thank you Clinique!!!
