Works wonders!!!!
I love me a good acne targeting treatment for those days that a pimple wants to appear. I applied this on.a huge pimple the night before and in the morning it was gone.

This product is another strategy for marketing
I have been using for a 3 days now. The cane remains the same and I get more pimple. To the creator of this product pls don't give false hope like pimple size would reduce in 2 hrs. I am so desperate and your advertisement got me.

I've used this for months on hormonal breakouts. It works quickly, doesn't dry out skin and a little goes a long way. Also works on my very sensitive 22yo daughter's skin. She has eczema and this is the only product that works for her. Highly recommend.
Didn't work for me…
I tried this product based off of all the positive reviews but it wasn't effective for me. I've recently started breaking out - not cystic or hormonal acne, just a few "normal" blemishes and after several days of using this, no change at all. As others have mentioned, it's also very sticky so be prepared for you sheets/pillowcase to stick to your face if you use before bed.
Not very effective…
I use this as a spot treatment and it works somewhat. I don't think I'd repurchase as I have used other products that work better for multiple types of acne and don't cost nearly as much. I would recommend this if you're interested as it may work different on other skin, but for me it does not work well enough to give a higher rating.

This acne treatment is a game-changer! After using it, I saw noticeable results—my breakouts healed faster, and redness reduced significantly. The salicylic acid helps dissolve impurities. Highly recommend for quick, effective acne treatment! Will definitely repurchase.
Works great for certain types of acne
This is a good product, a bit sticky but effective. However, my experience was this ONLY works on pimples caused by bacteria/oil. It doesnt appear to be as effective on hormonal, fungal or inflammatory acne FOR ME. But I think if you're experiencing mild, random breakouts this will help. Didn't irritate my sensitive skin or overly dry it out so I'd still recommend depending on your acne type.
