Adult Acnomel Acne Medication Cream, Tinted Spot Acne Treatment for Face

As an older adult, this is just what I needed. I find the active ingredient, sulphur, to be just as if not more effective than benzoyl peroxide. I use it on my entire face, lightly, and find that it dims shine quite well. The tint is excellent. Nice after a good face wash and shave. Would buy again, no hesitation.

I have been living with acne for decades and have tried a long list of remedies (prescription and over-the-counter). I will probably always need to use multiple approaches, but adding Adult Acnomel to my routine has already improved my skin. I thank M, Tony, and Gregor for their reviews; they gave me the confidence to push the “buy” button. I quite like the added scent. This product smells better than other sulfur products I have tried, and the subtle color blends better on my skin than past makeup attempts. It definitely tames the nose shine and is a great spot treatment. Perhaps it is helpful to share that I carefully use adapalene gel .1% most nights (trying to avoid areas that become over-dried). I noticed that the Adult Acnomel adds some flakiness to my skin while it's doing an amazing job unclogging pores and diminishing acne papules, so I use CeraVe Acne Control Gel with 2% salicylic acid and alpha hydroxy acid to smooth out the flakes before spot-treating (some spots larger than others...like most of my nose) with Adult Acnomel in the daytime. I wish my fellow acne sufferers success! For those of you with effortlessly clear skin, I am happy for you.

Hard to believe that I have used Acnomel cream for over 50 years, but I have and I still like it. My skin tends to be oily, and the Acnomel helps to minimize that annoying shine, giving me more of a matte skin appearance. I have never had any issues with skin irritation with Acnomel, and over 50 years, I can speak with some authority on that! Definitely give this two thumbs up!

Review of Adult Acnomel Acne Medication Cream, 1.3 Ounces If you're looking for an effective solution to tackle stubborn breakouts, the Adult Acnomel Acne Medication Cream is a product that delivers noticeable results. However, as with many acne treatments, it comes with its own set of considerations, especially for those with sensitive skin. Here's a detailed review based on my experience: Effectiveness The cream is highly effective at reducing breakouts and calming inflammation. After applying it to problem areas, I noticed a visible improvement within a few days. Redness and swelling were significantly reduced, and new blemishes seemed to fade faster than usual. It’s a great spot treatment for sudden breakouts and works well as part of a targeted skincare routine. Skin Dryness Acnomel does have a drying effect, which is both a strength and a potential drawback. For oily or combination skin, this drying effect can help control excess oil production and keep breakouts at bay. However, for those with sensitive skin, it might cause irritation or excessive dryness. In my experience, even with normal skin, I noticed some dryness and flaking around the treated areas after a few uses. To counteract this, I recommend pairing it with a hydrating, non-comedogenic moisturizer to maintain your skin’s moisture barrier while using the cream. Application and Texture The cream has a thick consistency and a slightly medicinal scent, which is common with products containing active acne-fighting ingredients. It applies smoothly and absorbs relatively quickly, leaving a matte finish. Because of its thickness, a little goes a long way, and it’s best used as a spot treatment rather than an all-over face cream. Sensitivity Concerns As noted, this cream may not be ideal for individuals with very sensitive or already compromised skin. The drying properties and active ingredients can exacerbate redness or irritation if your skin is prone to sensitivity. If you’re unsure how your skin will react, it’s best to do a patch test on a small area before applying it to your face. Packaging and Value The 1.3-ounce tube is compact and convenient, making it easy to store or take with you on trips. While the size is relatively small, the product’s potency means you don’t need to use a large amount, making it last longer than you might expect. It’s reasonably priced for an acne treatment, offering good value for its effectiveness. Who It’s Best For Best For: Individuals with oily or combination skin who are looking for a targeted treatment to manage occasional or moderate breakouts. Not Ideal For: Those with dry or sensitive skin, as it may exacerbate irritation or flakiness. Tips for Use Apply a thin layer to the affected area only—avoid over-applying as it can increase dryness. Pair with a gentle cleanser and moisturizer to prevent excessive dryness. Use sunscreen during the day, as some acne treatments can make your skin more sensitive to sunlight. Final Thoughts Adult Acnomel Acne Medication Cream is an effective solution for clearing breakouts and reducing inflammation, but it’s not without its downsides. While it works wonders on acne, the drying effects may not suit everyone, particularly those with sensitive or dry skin. If you’re willing to manage the potential for dryness with a good moisturizer, this cream can be a powerful addition to your skincare arsenal. Pros: Effectively reduces acne and redness Affordable and long-lasting Easy to apply and leaves a matte finish Cons: Can cause dryness or flaking Not suitable for very sensitive or dry skin Strong medicinal scent Rating: 8/10 It’s a reliable and effective acne treatment, but its drying properties make it better suited for those with oilier skin types or as a targeted spot treatment. Use it wisely and with caution if you have sensitive skin!

This works really well! It has a strong sulfer like smell to it after it dries, but makes the pimple disappear quickly!

This works better than any other product I've applied to blackhead and small pimples. Plus, along with hiding them, it helps heal them. I've used it for years and highly recommend it.

The products works as described.

i have mixed feeling on this product due to sometimes it burns my face gives me a rash but sometimes it works great .With that said it has nothing to do with seller its the people who make it .The scent is a bit perfumy but when it drys it goes away . It can irritate your skin like i said it depends on the batch u get from the manufactor . The Price is good because u do get a good amount . The color is on the orange tannish side . it will clear your skin if u get a good batch . a few times i got some some with like gritty stuff that hurt my face so . SO i still buy it because i still get good ones that are made right .
