submitted by hanna12 - 6 years ago
A: That's a great question, hanna12! We recommend leaving it on and not removing it, so it can work to reduce the size and redness of the spot. You just apply to a clean and dry face covering affected area with a thin layer two to three times daily as needed. Make sure to clean skin thoroughly before applying. Thanks, and let us know if you have any questions!

Have noticed that my pimples dry up after two uses! It just took super long to come in. It estimated a week and came a month later.
Great for occasional spots

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product is good for occasional flareups for spots and can be used easily. Just a small dab before bed and waking up without spots or redness is a lifesaver.
Works great but thick texture

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] While I didn't have any true breakouts to test this product on I did have a small blemish to try it out. It didn't seem to drying like other products which was nice. The small blemish was gone in just under a week.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I tried this gel on a a cystic acne pustule that was just starting to grow. I applied it at nighttime and when I woke up it was already half the size! The gel was easy and clean to apply. It wasn't sticky or too drying afterwards. With some gels or ointments I might feel it drying on my face and it would feel uncomfortable. This did not. It's also clear, so it didn't leave a visible film on the skin when dried. I would definitely continue using this product again.

Noticeable Difference

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was definitely surprised at the noticeable difference this made in a blemish that popped up unexpectedly. Although it did not completely eliminate it, it did make a difference in the redness and size. I normally don’t see any results this soon with other products I’ve tried. The smell was not horrible either compared to others. Overall I was completely satisfied with this product and will consider purchasing it again.
Great product!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This acne gel really works! I used it on some stubborn spots and the redness was down in a couple hours. Kinda works on the more stubborn pimples that get very irritated at the slightest touch.
Awesome acne treatment!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The acne spot gel works great! It took away redness after a few hours, and cleared up the pimples within a couple of days completely. I was impressed with it not being greasy or messy to use. We had family pictures on a Sunday, and of course a pimple popped up Friday morning. The pimple was gone by the time we took our pictures Sunday afternoon.
Spots be gone!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great spot treatment! I have oily skin and suffer from mild acne. I usually struggle with breakouts around my upper lips, cheeks, and forehead. The breakouts above my upper lips are the worst and this spot treatment has really helped. I usually apply it after cleaning and toning my skin. I haven’t noticed any irritation or dryness in my skin and use it on a daily basis for acne spots. I only use a pea size of product for my face and body! Product definitely goes a long way and is reasonably priced. I can see a difference in the acne spots a few hours after applying the product. It’s helped reduce the inflammation and helped me pick at my skin less. Love love love it!
This product is amazing!!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product has been life changing for me. As a single woman in my thirties break outs occasionally happen and they are super embarrassing. I’ve used this more than once when I notice a break out beginning and luckily it does the job. So thankful this is a thing

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Neutrogena Rapid Clear Stubborn Acne Spot Gel actually does work!! I broke out so bad last weekend. Started using the gel on Friday and my face was clear by Monday! In the past i have tried so many “quick fixes” for breakouts but nothing ever really seems to work. Looks like i have finally found something that does!!
