Gentle, Effective, and Fast-Acting Acne Treatment!

I love how gentle yet extremely effective this product is! It works quickly to clear acne breakouts whether they have already formed or at the first sign. I can't speak to its effectiveness on cystic acne, but for everyday blemishes and congestion, it works beautifully. My acne usually clears within the same day or by the end of day, the following evening. It's gentle enough to use twice daily and layers well over my other skincare products without causing dryness, irritation, or stinging. My skin always feels comfortable. I highly recommend!

Gentle and effective

Love this product to treat breakouts. I have fairly sensitive skin and this doesn’t cause excessive dryness and breakouts clear quickly. Product has a light fragrance, I’d prefer little to no fragrance but the fragrance doesn’t seem to bother my skin.

Amazing product.

This product has really helped with my breakouts and the clarity of my skin. My dark spots are diminishing as well and overall my pores look great.

Great for mild hormonal acne

I don’t typically use products with salicylic acid as I’m a daily tretinoin user. However, I’ve been having some more recurrent hormonal acne in my late 30s. I think this works well for use every 3-4 days. I did have a purge period at first which freaked me out. However, now my skin has been much more clear and even toned. My acne marks are healing nicely as well. I don’t use everyday but do feel after the minor purge of my chin area that my pores look much more clean!

Great for acne and pores

this is a really nice product to switch out with my salicylic serum. i do get more oily with this than the other serum i use, so i mainly use this when i don't wear makeup or for a few days after using tretinoin, since that dries me a bit. my skin is insanely oily though. no stinging and it absorbs quickly. nice texture.

La Roche-Posay Effaclar A.Z. Gel Azelaic Acid Acne Treatment

I’ve been using this La Roche-Posay gel for a few weeks, and I’m really it. The texture is lightweight and absorbs nicely without feeling greasy, which is what my combination, rosacea skin really appreciates.. I noticed less redness and breakouts. I like this product.

Instant absorption

This product layers really well in my routine, on my second bottle and noticed a huge difference in my skin. Keeps the purges far and few in between especially being a heavy retinol user.

Great for acne on back and shoulders

I tried this product on my face and neck, but it was a bit too strong on first couple of tries. But please note that I have very sensitive skin. That said, I am now using the product on my shoulders and back, where I have breakouts and thicker skin -- and it works very well to resolve that issue quickly. I might be able to try it again on my face with a moisturizer first, then slowly increase the times I use it.

Love this product

I struggle with adult acne and of course have some wrinkles; I am really liking this product. This has not dried out my skin like most acne products, and it soaks right in. This brand has some great products. Thanks LovelySkin for carrying this brand.

Acne and oil reduced by 75%

I purchased this as a gift for my 31 year old daughter. She loves it. I saw immediate results and she said she liked that it didn't leave her skin feeling tight or stripped. It's a great product.
