Careful with the packaging!
This spot treatment is fantastic for those deep cyxstic breakouts I get every month like clockwork. A little dab with a qtip and a pimple patch and its gone in a matter of days. However I am knocking off a star for the packaging. The bottom edge of the metal lid was unbelievably sharp right out of the box and sliced my finger open when I opened it. Also a dropper or squeeze/pump bottle would definitely be more sanitary.

Doesn't work
Disappointed, had high hopes for this product but it made no difference on my acne. Too expensive a product. I used the entire bottle and stuck to the regiment to still be struggling with acne.

Works fast
First off im a 62 year old woman. I got an enzyme peel and facial recently and my skin did the worst purge afterwards. Deep painful cystic acne on my chin. I was desperate because i never break out. I used this and by the next morning it was 80% better, by the next day i woke up and it was flat, pain was gone. This stuff is absolutely amazing. Worth every penny

Truly life changing for my skin!!!
I started using this product in January after seeing recommendations online. I have very acne prone, dry skin - salicylic acid products can be drying, but this spot treatment has not dried my skin out at all! I use it morning and night on my problem areas and follow with a thick moisturizer. Consistency is key with this! Results might not show after only a few applications. My skin shows the best results with consistent, twice daily use. My acne has gotten so much more manageable and clears faster. I've been using this product for about 6 months and would highly recommend!

Absolutely AMAZING!!!
I usually don't care to post reviews but after a week of using this product, I had to hop on here and share my experience. I have unfortunately been dealing with acne and not just the little pimples but cystic acne that's super painful and it seems to be popping up more and more. I usually treat it with benzoyl peroxide but I feel like that wasn't working enough for me anymore. I gave this product a chance and it was also recommended to me by my peers and instantly after the first use, it dramatically calmed down my skin and the painful cystic acne was completely healed. It wasn't bumpy or filled with pus or painful anymore! I was so shocked that it is actually so effective like it said it would. Absolutlely loving this product so far and if you have the same issue, I'd suggest you give this product a chance.

this saved my face
ive always dealt with hormonal acne that never seemed to go away… until i started consistently using this product. i like to put it on top of mositurizer since it does get a little drying, and it works wonders for my acne. but, consistency is very important, if i dont use it for a few days i do notice it will come back.

Just buy it!
I rarely write reviews but this stuff lives up to the hype. I was dealing with some bad hormonal acne after I had a baby and a bad reaction to my IUD. I had stubborn spots on my chin that wouldn’t go away for 2 months. I caved and bought this and the spots are finally starting to shrink and disappear! 10/10 recommend!

LOVE
I purchased because i kept seeing ads for this and wanted to see if the hype was real. I have combo skin and have been told by many I have great skin yadda yadda. BUT I had these same few zits on my lower cheek, on my nose, and upper cheek that kept coming back and had caused scaring. So I bought it and tried it. HOLY MOLY did it help! not only that it also cleared up some skin discoloration that I thought had just been freckles. It also purge some acne so when you use it know that in the beginning it's just pulling up deeper stuff and it's not actually giving you acne. It's chemically exfoliating the skin and so what you're seeing is that acne that hasn't shown up yet. Anyway I don't write reviews often but this one DESERVED it. My skin has never been clearer and happy!

Made things worse
I tried it for several weeks and I broke out way more than I normally do. Plus it made older blemishes more noticable. Pretty much the opposite of what it should do. Very disappointed I paid for this.

Expired product
Its a beautiful product which i could not wait to be reshipped, to start. Even expired it still helped my horrendous horomonal acne in one week, its helped me regain my confidence and i will be contacting ulta still for a replacement bottle of non expired product.

1000% YES
I have been struggling with cystic acne for the last 10 years. I picked this product up YESTERDAY and already noticed my breakout is less painful (thank god) and less inflamed. I have never found a product that worked this well, this fast.

so glad I gave it a shot!
I get 1 or 2 really bad cystic breakouts every month during that time of the month and this product has been a game changer. I NEVER take the time to write reviews but I highly recommend giving this product a chance if you deal with cystic acne. As soon as I start to feel a cystic breakout forming I apply this and they go away within a couple days without ever fully forming!

Helps Cystic Acne but Noticed Scarring
Definitely helps with cystic under the skin acne and getting it to go away quickly….but I noticed scarring from the pimples I used it on weeks later and I’m not prone to acne scarring. It has slowly started going away from using retinol but still have multiple scars all over.

On my 3rd bottle!
I have been using this stuff for years and is the only thing that works on my painful under the skin acne. It is definitely pricey but I believe it is worth trying if you struggle with under the skin acne too.
