Reviews Summary
Customers say this spot treatment works quickly on blemishes, often showing results overnight. Many reviews mention reduced redness and faster healing times. The green-tinted formula receives mixed feedback for its coverage. While most find it gentle and effective, some note a strong smell that lingers. Reviews are mixed on speed of results - some see immediate improvement, others report slower progress. Common feedback includes easy application and good value, though tube size prompts some discussion.

    A must have!

    I don't break out as much as I used to but I love having this on hand when I do. Especially around my favorite week of the month when my chin goes crazy with small breakouts. It helps clear the small ones up fast and while it may not help in that aspect with the larger, more painful ones, it does help bring the pain down on those to the point that I forget that they're there. Definitely don't want to be without this anymore.
