To open the product, remove the cap and insert the opposite side of the cap into the foil. Push down on the cap and twist until the foil is punctured.
Use once daily. Clean the skin gently and pat dry before applying product. Cover the entire affected area with a thin layer. For example, if your acne is on the face, apply the product to the entire face. Do not use more than one time a day. Applying more than directed will not provide faster or better results, but may worsen skin irritation. During the early weeks of use, your acne may appear to worsen before it improves (this is normal); continue use as directed, unless you get irritation that becomes severe. Irritation is more likely to occur in the first few weeks of use or if using more than one topical acne medication at a time but irritation usually lessens with continued use of this product. Applying more than directed will not provide faster or better results. It may take up to 3 months of once daily use to see results. For further instructions, refer to the Drug Facts on the packaging.

Kind of works
I bought this product because I have acne scars that kind of just popped up one day, and I couldn't for the life of me figure out where they came from, as I have clear skin. So I decided to try this brand because of how much dermatologists praise it. I did some research and I ended up with the Effac...

I have hormonal acne and I have tried everything. I used this for 2 weeks and basically all my acne has cleared out. It's very drying so just make sure to follow with a good moisturizer
Such a good purchase.

This gel is so amazing, I will never regret this purchase. Adapalene is such an amazing ingredient for acne-prone skin and has helped to completely transform my skin. I use it once at night and wake up with the most beautiful skin.

Acne fighting and blemish control. Legend has it that this product contain the medicine for fighting wrinkles by helping cell turnover faster. Need to be consistent with sunscreen use while using this to prevent sunburns.
Changed my life
My face has always been sensitive & I could never get it to calm down—my skin would literally inflame over anything. This has changed that!!!! 1. It decreased my redness substantially. No more clogged pores. I FINALLY HAVE CLEAR SKIN—LIKE ALL ONE COLOR. 2. It can obviously be drying, but not at all if you heavily moisturize at night (as you should). 3. Yes, it may make you break out in the first few days-weeks. Relax, it comes to an end. Your pores will be less noticable after about a month!!! Literally, it stops sebum production (the oily stuff that clogs your pores & causes acne) 4. It's significantly improved the texture of my skin & reduced the look of fine lines. Retinoids are known to increase collagen!!!!
One of the best products
