the only thing thats ever worked for me
I had terrible acne ages 12-16, tried what seemed like every acne product ever, and this brand is the only one that has made a noticeable difference! Been using it since and a small amount goes a long way!

Great for deep pimples
This is a salicylic acid based spot treatment so I use it on those deep under the skin pimples and its amazing. For pimples at the surface I like an AHA or sulfur based spot treatement

Not for deep blemishes
This product does dry out the pimples, however it doesnr pop them, i get whiteheads and itll dry them but wont take the white out. It also does NOT work on deep blemishes which is what i deal with mostly, i kept it to continue use juat to make sure, but i will not be ourchasing this produxt again.

Improvement after one use!
I've tried countless products over the years on stubborn spots, but this showed inprovement with one use! I have reoccuring spots that I hate. Nothing gets rid of them. I couldnt believe the difference one application made. I cant wait to keep using this.

Works so fast!
I put this on a large pimple i got on my cheek. Just used a tiny amount and then applied makeup as normal. At the end of the day its half the size and much less irritated! You only need a tiny bit so the tube will last forever. Dont apply this on your entire face!! Its not meant to be used like that. Just a dab on specific spots is all you need. Im so glad it works under makeup so I can wear it morning and night. Super happy with my purchase!

Immediate results
I had a deep cystic pimple on my chin. And it was super painful. I put this on and in a few hours the inflammation went down. I had hormonal acne and I have been using this to help my breakouts and it is very helpful. I highly recommend if you have inflamed acne. I use it when I feel a pimple coming on and it really helps stop it.

AMAZING!
the last week i had MASSIVE breakouts on my face that were so painful and stubborn. i put this product on the spots for 3 days and by the 3rd night the pimples were completely gone. this product works like a charm, but it is definitely drying and drys out the area its applied to!

Great product, works fast
I've used this product 5+ years and continue to be impressed by the quality and effectiveness. It works great as a spot treatment or over a problem area. This is definitely one of my favorites.

Best acne treatment
This is hands down the best acne product I've ever used. I've been struggling with severe acne for years and after using this for about a week now, I see a dramatic improvement.

Love it!
I use on any issue. I've used on pre-teen granddaughter for the break-outs at her swimcap hair line and new grandbabies for those little spots that pop up from nursing and pacifier. There's no pain, no smell and no burning! Most spots are gone by morning or that night.

Overnight Improvement!!!
I can't live without this. I usually use the Murad Deep Relief for my adult acne which has worked great but does take a few days to clear things up, and my 3 cysts were absolutely killing me.. bought this praying it would do as it claims and it worked!!!! I woke up today and they're literally 1/2 the size and no longer painful! I will never be without!

Zit Sauce
I have trouble with the painful, cystic acne, particularly around my chin and if I catch it fast enough, especially when it hurts but isn't visible yet, it'll vanish within a few hours. The sooner, the better but it'll reduce them at any stage. It will make my skin peel after several applications (some of my blemishes are pretty tough). It has a medicine-y type of smell that fades as it dries. I love that it's clear. I'm 44 and wish I had this in my youth!

Things get worse?
I put this on a couple spots overnight and they are worse (red and whiteheads) the next day. Is that supposed to happen? :(

Never want to be without
My skin, usally very blemish free, has been having a meltdown this week and i panic-bought this product. I will never let myself run out of it. It lightened the redness of my blemished, dried them up quickly and now i am on my way to healing from them faster than with no intervention. Would tecommend.
