 It actually works for me... |

I use this spot gel on my occasional, mild to moderate acne and it really does diminish the appearance and pain of any emerging zits I get. It works especially well overnight when the skin is more relaxed. From personal experience, however, I don't recommend using such salicylic acid acne gels on large areas of skin over lengthy periods of time. In the past, it worked so well for me that I thought, "Why not use it as an everyday acne treatment to prevent acne? I could use this for my entire T-zone area!" How foolish that turned out to be, because I ended up with irritated skin and more acne where there formerly was not any. After all, it is called a "spot gel" for a reason. With that said, a small dab used directly on a zit will suffice.
I feel the need to add a disclaimer here. As one of the other reviewers stated, each person reacts differently to different remedies, so it is advisable to try a slight amount first. I personally have combination type skin, and this gel does not "burn" nor even dry my skin. Also, the very first review on this gel sounds suspiciously extreme. |
Believe it or not-- reading the instructions helps!

| Works great for me when used as intended: as a spot treatment. Don't use over large areas or more often than directed. Has a very noticeable (and positive) effect overnight, and often elimates individual blemishes or small areas of break-outs within a day or two. As others have noted, some may be more sensitive, but even if my skin were hyper sensitive I believe that I'd prefer a small red spot to a large zit any day. |

| This product is very strong, but it works. I found that I need to use just a little on zits. I tried putting it on acne scars and it did make me break out. It is very strong and works very well when used as intended. |
Take the other reviews with a grain of salt

I have really liked this product. I have found that there is slight discomfort in some situations, and there can be minor eye irritation if the product is applied carelessly, but I think these are really just testaments to the stopping power of the gel.
What's important to remember is that each individual's reaction to a given salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide solution can be very different, so while I'll admit that outcomes like those mentioned here are possible, they certainly aren't the norm. My use of the product has yielded fast and noticable results, so I would definitely recommend it.
For those that are still worried, I would have to say that consulting a doctor is the safest course of action, and that perhaps one could test a small area of his or her face upon receipt of the product instead of engaging in profligate and careless application.
Overall, I give it an A. |
