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 ...

Perfect for congested skin

This is a very nice moisturizer for congested skin. I have found that a lot of lotions that contain salicylic acid are too harsh for daily use and end up compromising the skin barrier. That wasn't the case for this formulation. It is very light weight and leaves a soft matte finish. It keeps pores clear without over drying and irritating skin. Perfect for daily use but I recommend pairing with an oil for night to keep skin hydrated.
Works great!

Reduces breakouts!

Kiehl's Expertly Clear Moisturizer is tailored for acne-prone skin, featuring salicylic acid to help reduce breakouts while providing hydration. Its lightweight, non-greasy formula absorbs quickly, making it ideal for daily use. However, it may be pricier than drugstore options. Overall, it's a solid choice for those seeking effective hydration alongside acne treatment. It did help me reduce some breakouts.

I used the product daily before bed, after. I used it for a few days, already could see improvements. My face breaks out alot during stress, i have used lots of face creams and etc. Nothing has worked so far besides this product. I recieved this product for free, for my honest opinion.
Horrible breakout
I bought this because of its good reviews. This made me breakout horribly. I literally had about 13 pimples growing in after I started giving this a try i regret it so much. I have cystic hormonal acne at the moment.
