Efficient and non irritating serum
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] I've been using the La Roche-Posay Effaclar Duo+M for a few weeks now, and I can honestly say it's one of the better spot treatments I've tried, especially for stubborn, hormonal breakouts. The texture is lightweight, almost like a gel-crea...

Good for surface acne
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] I had high hopes for La Roche-Posay's Effaclar Duo+M, and while it does have some positives, the results were a bit mixed for me. On the plus side, the texture is great. It's lightweight, fast-absorbing, and non-greasy. It layers well under...

Effective without drying skin
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] I have always suffered from hormonal acne since I was a teen and have used all of the over the counter products. This treatment has worked so well at drying pimples slowly over time. I like how you can apply it multiple times a day and the texture is very light. Very easy to blend into the skin and does not feel heavy. Postpartum my skin has become very sensitive and this does not give me any reaction or make my skin feel dry. Has a pleasant smell that is not overwhelming.


Great for small breakouts!
I received this product in exchange for my honest review and I was so excited to try this! I've tried a product similar to this before, but it wasn't super effective, so I was really interested to see how this product would work. While it didn't totally get rid of some of my blemishes (yay hormonal acne), it did decrease size and worked for some of my smaller blemishes! It was a little drying, but not terribly so. Definitely worth a try!

Great gentle treatment
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] Im very happy with the results of this product. I gave up salicylic acid a long time ago because it seemed to just cause dry skin and not clear up the acne. Using this also scared me at first due to the pretty heavy floral scent since im usually very sensitive to fragrance. Using this for a few days didnt dry out my skin at all, didnt flare me up and obviously penetrates well because it made a big difference without any damage. Id definitely recommend for sensitive skin or to avoid the annoying peeling skin from topical products. Id buy again.
A MUST HAVE!!
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] I'm running to purchase more of this product to have on hand. I deal with a lot of hormonal acne so there isn't much I can do to for that but product helps the breakouts go down quickly without drying out my skin even If I apply it multiple times a day. Doesn't really have much of a scent. Packaging is good a little goes a long way. I've been using daily multiple times a day with no issues! 1000% recommend.
Product did not work as expected
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] Used the product for several days and it did not produce the results desired. Product was not affective for moderate acne. Packaging was done properly. The products scent and texture were acceptable. Product ingredients were average.
