What is the shelf life of this product? I got a bottle that only has 3-4 months left. Im currently not using these acids and immediate daily use isnt ideal per the dermatologist let alone 1ml/day minimum. Huh??

- Q
When I look up black head treatment this comes up!! do you think it would work for SEVERE black heads? But if it is for severe black heads does it remove the cause of the black head or does it just help the pore? Also, when to expect results? Thank you!
- Asked by Ab's
- Official Answer By Hero Cosmetics - Brand EngageThank you for your inquiry! Hero™ Cosmetics Pore Release can be used as a spot treatment or all over the face. Start with 2–3 applications per week to clear blackheads, then reduce to 1–2 times weekly to maintain results. While it won't completely eliminate blackheads, it helps dissolve buildup for clearer, refined pores. For best results, pair it with Hero™ Nose Patches to boost blackhead-fighting power.Was this answer helpful to you

Love this stuff!!!
I've bought this multiple times now. Luckily, it usually goes on sale at Ulta at least once a year, so I stock up. It's gentle as can be but has really made a difference in the appearance of the pores on my nose. And I don't break out along my jawline like I used to regularly. Highly recommend! And I'm an old lady with mature drying skin.
Kinda did nothing?
Never saw a difference really
Ok product but not for sensitive dry skin
I tried to use this product multiple times while is did clear my black heads it made my skin itchy and very reactive. I didnt use it often i tried once a week and even then my face would have a bad reaction to this product and mess up my skin barrier so I would not recommend if you have very dry sensitive skin.

At 37 yo i have hormonal acne that consists of many blackheads & clogged pores along my jawline, chin and neck area. I bought this in hopes that it would help the amount of blackheads I get. Unfortunately, I found that this product didnt work better than any other salicylic acid based toners on the market. And believe me, ive tried LOTS. Lets just say I went from regular member status to diamond in 2 months, if that's any indication on how much money ive spent trying different products for my acne sitch lol. So far the best thing thats worked for my blackheads is the Peach Slices exfoliating acne toner and the Good Molecules overnight exfoliating treatment (used together) and you can get both of those for less than this Hero toner costs.
Clogged pores yes, full on blackheads no good
I have some bad blackheads that it did nothing for. However my stomach area has really bad clogged pores due to me being overweight. It has helped PREVENT bad blemishes there! Although it does not clean out or dissolve anything. Still happy it helps
