Review Text: 
I bought this last year and it has been great for my oily acne prone skin. I use it twice a day and rub in a small amount to all the areas on my face prone to acne; I'll also put a scant amount on pimples that are not in my usual break out areas. I have found that this reduces current breakouts and stops the development of future breakouts. I have had one tube for a very long time as you only need a very small amount to be effective H

I recently got three big pimples on my nose I started applying the product 3-4 times a day for almost two weeks now and I still have two of the pimples exactly the same. Plus it caused my nose to peal.

This product completely ruined my face. I don’t understand how one use could do so much damage. I applied this on three specific I popped pimples and this product inflammed the crap out of them! Turned them into purple stubborn scars that are bigger than the pimples were! I literally cried twice after seeing the aftermath. Especially since they are smack dab in the middle of my cheek. It also left the area flaky. The areas it was used on looks shiny as if I had a huge scab and peeled it off. Really really regret ever using this. I should’ve been patient and let the pimples go away on their own.

Made my acne worse

Review Questions: 
State: New York
SkinType: Sensitive
SkinCare: Daily Pimple prevention
Age: 45-54
Review Text: 
This did not work and made me break out more. Why do you put fragrance in an acne medication? Smell terrible. I would have never bought if I knew it had fragrance. I didnt have my glasses on when I bought. I would return-but i bought in Chicago and live in NYC. Not even worth a one star. Maybe you should focus on one really good product instead of 30..

Works overnight

Review Questions: 
State: Oregon
SkinType: Sensitive
SkinCare: Daily Pimple prevention
Age: 55-65
Review Text: 
I have had mild acne all my life. As an adult it has been frustrating. I should have outgrown it many years ago. But no. Since using Clean & Clear Advantage Acne spot treatment that problem is solved. I use a very tiny dot on spots at night and in the morning just a slight red mark remains. For me it is a great product and as I have very sensitive skin I was skeptical.

awful

Decided to try this out and put a few spots of it on my pimples around the forehead and cheek area before bed. When I woke up my pimples had not gone away, were bright red and much worse than before. Also, I developed more pimples overnight from the product. Don’t normally write reviews, but this was awful.

Salicylic & Alcohol

Review Questions: 
State: Oregon
SkinType: Oily
SkinCare: Gentle cleansing
Age: 25-34
Review Text: 
WHY can't you make a 2% Salicylic Acid treatment product WITHOUT alcohol?? I want the great salicylic acid, I do not want the damaging alcohol! At least you could use MUCH LESS alcohol. I cannot buy this product (or the Mark Treatment) if you keep putting so much alcohol in it. Please reformulate!
