Great, but smaller than before
I love this product. Tried cheaper products and always go back to this. However, "shrinkflation" has struck again and I'm pretty annoyed. the large size used to a 1 whole fluid ounce, but now its 0.68 fluid ounce...at the same price of course. may be the last time I buy this, cause even on sale its pricey for such a small amount.

It works great
Only salicylic acid serum I've tried that helped clear my closed comedones. Unfortunately its pretty pricey but I couldn't find anything to reduce the size of my breakouts. On the bright side it reduces them to almost nothing overnight.

Reduced size, but more expensive
Not Ulta's fault, but Clinique went the route of changing the packaging and size and yet charging more...much like ice cream makers did several years ago when they reduced the size of half-gallon to whatever size. I swear I just barely opened the package and it's gone.

Burned my skin
Applied a dot size amount on my forehead, nose and area next to my mouth. Instantly burned and damaged my skin.

Love it!
Used for a very painful pimple that was embedded under my skin. Put it in the area for a day or two, white head appeared, kept applying and then the pimple just dried up and vanish! I love this product! I will definitely keep using it!!

New Version Sucks
I bought this not knowing they changed the formula. First I thought it was just a bottle change but after the first week of using it to spot treat, I noticed no change in the acne but those spots have dried out and some spots got burned. Im literally pealing off my dried skin off my face as we speak but the pimple is still there. Too late to return cos I threw the box away.

Changed the size, kept the price.
This product works as everyone deacribes but now it costs the same for less product. I won't be buying again, and I've bought this religiously for the past 5ish years.
