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.

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.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend

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.

Great for sensitive skin

This product is a slow process, but great for sensitive skin. Tried all the pimple spot treatments you can think of. It will take a couple days(for me) to remove that pimple spot to a small red dot. But it doesnt sting or hurt while applying. Let dry for about a minute or two! It may feel a bit sticky when it drys all the way. Just add some oil or lotion and your good to go!! ♾️
