Clean & Clear Advantage Acne Spot Treatment Gel Cream, 2% Salicylic Acid Acne Medication, Witch Hazel, Oil-Free Gel Pimple Cream for Adults & Teens, Salicylic Acid, 3 x.75 Fl. Oz

I usually buy expensive skincare, and don’t typically go for “drugstore” brands. BUT!!! I gave this one a chance, AND GUYS, it works SO WELL!! I’ve been using this for 2 years now, annd apply it before moisturizer morning + evening, and it dries out those pesky raised/juicy pimples soooo fast. I just wish it came in a bigger size since it’s a small tube and I go through it so quickly (the box could easily fit 2 tubes) 🥲Make sure to apply moisturizer on top though otherwise your skin will get really dry and flaky! It stings a bit, so avoid putting it on like an open wound, wait for it to heal a lil and then put it on the pimple (otherwise it’s gonna burn).

I bought this previously for the occasional pimple but then started using Squalene oil as a face moisturizer in October of last year and didn't see another pimple. However, I left for a long road trip at the start of the year and had run out of the moisturizer so I switched to Cera-Ve. Worst choice ever! I think it's because it has sunscreen in it. Within a couple weeks of switching, I ended up with 5-6 pimples on my face at once--I think the most I've ever had.RED AND PEELINGLuckily I brought this spot treatment with me. Using it one or two days in a row worked on some, but there was a persistent one above my left eye that I applied it a few times a day for a day or two. I think I wasn't putting enough product on in a single application, you have to coat the area. Because I wasn't using enough each time, I had to prolong my use of this and it did cause my skin to turn red, but the pimple went away. Two days later, with no moisturizer (and I tend to have dryer skin), the skin painlessly peeled/flaked off that small spot and there was no sign of acne there anymore.A similar thing happened under my right eye where I had a persistent pimple. I applied the product a bit more heavily there and it disappeared within a day or two. There was a bit of redness left behind, and I have some what sensitive skin, but the skin just flaked off that little spot too and there is no evidence I had a pimple at all! I still have a few on my chin because I stopped using the product only because the redness it was causing scared me. However, now that I've seen that the peeling is temporary and painless, I will use this again today to get rid of those last few pimples. Great news because I have plans this weekend!MY ADVICEBecause this product works, I ordered the three-part Advantage system with cleaner, treatment, and moisturizer and it should be in today. Overall, very happy with it, but if you have a stubborn pimple, I would make sure you're fully coating it when you apply this and if you have very sensitive skin, maybe don't apply it two or three times in a row like I did. With that said, my skin did clear within 48 hours and my pimples otherwise may have lingered for a week or more, so what more could you want?By the way, I didn't notice a fragrance...

Great product

I recently purchased this spot treatment and have been using it for a few weeks. This spot treatment has proven to be effective in reducing the size of red spots on my skin. It comes in a convenient packaging and is easy to apply directly onto the affected areas.The key feature of this spot treatment is its ability to visibly shrink red spots. I noticed a significant improvement in the size and appearance of the spots within a few days of consistent use. The formula contains ingredients that target inflammation and redness, helping to calm down the affected areas.However, it’s important to note that while the spot treatment does a great job at reducing redness and inflammation, it’s not a standalone solution. The instructions recommend pairing it with a facial moisturizer, and I found this to be crucial. The treatment can be a bit drying, especially if you have sensitive or dry skin, so using a moisturizer is necessary to maintain the skin’s balance.On the downside, I deducted one star from my rating because of the need for an additional moisturizer. It would be more convenient if the spot treatment itself provided sufficient hydration without requiring an extra step. Additionally, the scent of the product is quite strong, which might not be appealing to everyone.In conclusion, the [Acne Spot Treatment Name] is a solid option for tackling red spots and inflammation. When used in conjunction with a facial moisturizer, it offers noticeable results in reducing redness and making the spots smaller. While it’s not a perfect solution, it’s certainly worth considering if you’re looking for an effective spot treatment to add to your skincare routine.

Great product. Works extremely well. I have been using for years.

This product was extremely efficient in addressing my break out areas. I’d apply this after serums, but before moisturizing, in the morning and at night. And started seeing big differences after continuous use.The product apples easily, though I wish it were a pump applicator so I could target larger areas better. Regardless, this product made a big impact to my skin routine!

Amazing for acne

Not very effective. Previous formula was more effective. Did not even Reduce pimple size.
