Lifesaver

This spot treatment is highly effective for reducing the size of a pimple and helps to ease the inflammation as well, especially when you need to reduce a pimple overnight. However if you have highly sensitive skin it can be a little too drying so it’s always smart to use this product in moderation.

Best spot acne treatment

I love this stuff. I have been using Clean & Clear’s advantage acne spot treatment since I discovered it in 2010 when I was a teenager with a horrible pimple coming in days before I was a lead in a play. I swear by this stuff, it cuts the time by at least half that you have to deal with a pimple. I always have multiple! One I keep in my travel makeup case so I never forget. BIG FAN.

Clean & Clear Advantage Acne Spot Treatment works

Clean & Clear Advantage Acne Spot Treatment works wonders! It quickly targets breakouts and visibly reduces redness overnight. The gel texture dries fast without feeling sticky, and my skin feels smoother and clearer with consistent use. Definitely one of my go-to spot treatments!

Must have acne spot treatment for on the go or dai

I have been using Clean & Clear acne spot treatment since I was in college to help with my facial acne. I use it everyday during my morning and night routine. It’s easily to apply and dries our pores quickly without causing irritation. I follow up with my daily moisturizer and go about my day without any additional worries.

Its nice.

Ive had this stuff forever. Its great for painful breakouts, easy to apply tube, and the cream is a nice consistency. Overuse of it will dry out your skin though, so make sure youre moisturizing!

This works!

I used this product when I was younger and pimple patches weren’t a thing yet. It was pretty effective and I would recommend this product to others to treat small breakouts. I think pimple patches are more effective.

Fast-acting, scent-free pimple treatment!!!

This is such a great product for pimples. It works really fast, especially if you apply it as soon as you feel one coming. Most of the time, the pimple completely disappears, and any redness goes down very quickly. I love that it has no scent at all, which makes it perfect for sensitive skin. The product dispenses easily without wasting any, and it dries pretty quickly without leaving a sticky or heavy feeling. The packaging is simple and convenient, making it easy to use at home or on the go. Overall, it’s super effective and definitely a must-have for breakouts. Simple amazing!!!!

My go to!

My go to spot treatment. This is my holy grail and has been for years. It doesn't have a lasting smell and I can see a noticeable difference after a day. I also do not feel it burning when it's put on like some others do

Great drug store product

This spot treatment works quickly on active breakouts and helps reduce redness overnight. I like that it targets pimples without needing to apply it all over my face. It can be a little drying if overused, so I recommend using a small amount and following up with moisturizer. Overall, it’s a reliable drugstore spot treatment.

Good spot treatment.

I’ve been using this for years and it still works every time. Whenever I feel a pimple coming in I dab a little on and it helps calm it down fast. It dries clear, doesn’t sting, and doesn’t mess with my makeup.

It works decently for small breakouts, but the res

The consistency is lightweight and easy to apply, absorbing fairly quickly into the skin. It was generally well tolerated, but on sensitive areas it caused slight dryness. The treatment lasts a few hours but didn’t provide long-lasting results. It leaves minimal residue, though a slight film can remain if too much product is applied. Overall, it works moderately but results may vary.
