Phenomenal

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

Not to be dramatic, but this product completely transformed my skin. I've suffered for years with cystic acne and this has been the only thing that has made an impact. The change was noticeable in weeks. I get fewer spots now and when I do, they aren't as big and they don't stick around as long. I also have sebaceous filaments in my T-zone area which appear visibly reduced. A little goes a long way. Don't apply using a cotton pad!! It's a liquid but it has an oily texture so I simply shake 4 or 5 drops into the palm of my hand and smooth it over my skin with my fingers, focusing mainly on my problem areas but pretty much over my whole face (avoiding eyes). I've been using the same travel size bottle for months and I've barely made a dent in it.

Fantastic breakout controller

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

If my skin ever seems to be on the brink of a breakout, the first thing I do after cleansing is take a cotton pad soaked with this acid and wipe it over the affected area. I wake up the next morning and the area seems calmer, the spots less angry. There is - of course - no way of proving this product is what has caused my skin to clear up, but as someone who has dealt with bouts of cystic acne in the past, I do really think this makes a difference. I’ll always have a bottle on my shelves.

Changed my skin

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

I have suffered with breakouts, blackheads and just oily skin all my life. Even stuff I had prescribed from the DR didn’t clear my skin, as well as this stuff, did. Even after I double cleanse my face my cotton pad has dirt on it. This stuff is just like a magnet to dirt and cleans your pores out !! It doesn’t dry my skin. Always have to have a backup!

Amazing for acne prone skin but not overnight

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

I've literally never left a review on any product before but with this one I just had to: it really is a game changer. I have oily, acne prone skin that is super sensitive to irritation. During lockdown my skin has been acting up more than usual so I wanted to take the time to try this product that came highly recommended from my friends. Whilst I did not wake up the next day with transformed skin, within the first week my skin is literally glowing. My family (who never notice haha) actually commented that I had a glow several times. It is a lot smoother, clearer and a lot of the congestion I had is gone. Particularly, closed comedones I had on my forehead that LITERALLY no product has been able to tackle were literally killed off by this product. I do want to add a word of warning though: it says to start it off slowly and being over zealous (also at home so who is going to see me) I basically immediately got myself to once daily use. I purged as a result which is fine because those pimples were on their way out anyway but if that's something you don't want to deal with then use a more conservative approach of a couple of times a week. However, it has not dried my skin out at all with this daily use when usually my cheeks react very easily and dry out when I take it too far. Overall, amazing product and I don't see myself ever being without it. If your break outs have been getting you down please try this and I truly hope it works for you.

Great for spot prone skin

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

I bought the smaller version of this and really enjoyed using it. I felt it really improved my spotty, oily t-zone and definitely cleared outbreaks quicker. I keep meaning to buy the full sized version but keep missing out when it comes back in stock. I would definitely recommend if you have combination skin!

Great product but not great value

3 stars out of a maximum of 5

I do this think product works and I have seen improvements in my skin, as I could see visible improvements in my pore size, but I don't think I could justify repurchasing due to the price. I just think there are other products from cheaper brands that do just as well. If money is not a concern then this is definitely a good product.

Made a big difference overnight

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

One of the only skin products I've ever used where you can actually see a huge difference after the first use. Visibly cleared my pores! Can't be without this now.

pretty great, maybe not for dry skin

4 stars out of a maximum of 5

I have super super oily skin. I got really bad breakouts at the beginning of lock-down, I'd get a massive patch and they'd go and another patch would pop up somewhere else. It's cleared up almost all my spots quite quickly and I can see the marks left disappearing with each use. it IS a genuinely good product. It did dry out my skin quite a lot. So I can't imagine it would be great for those with dry skin.

MUST BUY for anyone with acne prone skin

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

This product is my holy grail exfoliator. I have acne-prone oily skin and can break very easy. Since using this i have not had a single blemish and I promise that is no exaggeration. The only time I did get a spot was when I ran out of the product whilst waiting for a restock. I CANNOT believe how great this product is, if you are in 2 minds about purchasing I urge you to give the small size a try. You won't regret it.

Game changer!!!!!

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

This is my new holy grail! It cleared up My very annoying adult acne so much quicker than anything else I’ve tried (including prescriptions) although it’s not a super quick fix it definitely does work at reducing the number of spots and has got rid of those annoying little under the skin bumps I had on my forehead and temples. Just be warned it is a bit drying so a good moisturizer is needed, I use the Paulas choice ultra-rich moisturizer at night and my skin feels lovely in the morning. Although a little expensive for me it’s totally worth it!
