Great for bacne! Irritating and clogging for sensitive skin

Disclaimer: I received this product free from Bzzagent for testing purposes but the opinions expressed remain 100% my own honest thoughts. After trialing the Kiehl's Acne Lotion for a month now I personally prefer it as a treatment for body acne as it has proved to be ineffective in managing facial ...

I've used this for over a year! I only use it once a day after washing my face and toning. it can be a bit drying, but if I use anything else on my chin, I'll end up breaking out. Completely changed my acne on my chin, only get baby pimples now. Please dont change the formula!!

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend

Works great, but it is pricey for the outcome.

It works great but got too expensive for thw outcome. It does help prevent acne and get rid of acne but does not help completely. Still have acne come up when using this product. Used for months. It works but not 100%. It just helps. Due to price i have had to switch to a cheaper brand and not noticed much of difference. I have pimples, small blackheads but not a lot of acne all of the time. I cant speak for the ones who struggle with severe acne so if you do, it is worth a try. For me i have same results with cheaper products though!

I wasnt super excited about this but actually enjoyed using it when I need extra help. I thought it would be drying but ot wasn't. It's lightweight but hydrating enough. I'll continue to use. I was pleasantly surprised.

This helps when I'm having intense stress breakouts and keeps my skin clear. It's a bit harsh so it wouldn't be a daily use for me.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend
