Works like a charm!
I had hormonal acne flare up all over my face. I used this paired with Murad Acne Control Clarifying Cleanser. I used a drop of both on my Clarisonic. Followed it up with Murad Acne Spot Lightening Gel. Then sealed it with Murad Skin Perfecting Lotion. Went to sleep AND BOOM! The next morning my ski...

Not as good as other one :(
I LOVED the Murad Acne Spot Fast Fix with the benzoyl peroxide in it, it worked PERFECTLY and helped my breakout soooo much. I am so sad they discontinued it. I tried this one and I feel like it makes my skin WORSE. Very disappointed that I can't find the one with benzoyl peroxide and that they disc...

Holy Grail!
This product has been a part of my acne routine since I was 18! This product has never let me down! I highly recommend giving this product a try. JUST A LITTLE BIT is all you need bc a tiny amount of this product goes a long way.
Not for deep blemishes
This product does dry out the pimples, however it doesnr pop them, i get whiteheads and itll dry them but wont take the white out. It also does NOT work on deep blemishes which is what i deal with mostly, i kept it to continue use juat to make sure, but i will not be ourchasing this produxt again.
Improvement after one use!
I've tried countless products over the years on stubborn spots, but this showed inprovement with one use! I have reoccuring spots that I hate. Nothing gets rid of them. I couldnt believe the difference one application made. I cant wait to keep using this.
obsessed.
i LOVE this stuff. literally works overnight. i wouldnt say its great for sensetive skin because it can be drying, but holy cow does it tackle those big pimples. ive struggled with acne forever, and this is my holy grail. so much better than any pimple patch on the market. TEN OUT OF TEN
Works so fast!
I put this on a large pimple i got on my cheek. Just used a tiny amount and then applied makeup as normal. At the end of the day its half the size and much less irritated! You only need a tiny bit so the tube will last forever. Dont apply this on your entire face!! Its not meant to be used like that. Just a dab on specific spots is all you need. Im so glad it works under makeup so I can wear it morning and night. Super happy with my purchase!
