This gel does its job and helps minimize acne. It is not super drying so it takes a couple applications to diminish larger spots but that means its not doing much damage to the skin around the acne. It comes in an impressively large tube for its price and will last you a while. Definitely a great value. I would recommend to keep this on hand for when you feel like a pimple is coming you so it can do its job immediately. -

This lotion surprised me! I expected it to be quite drying as most acne care line lotions are but it was surprisingly hydrating enough. It has a very thin consistency so it sinks nicely and quickly into the skin. I used this once a day, in the morning, as I prefer a heavier cream for my night time routine. I think alternating between acne treatment products and basic all skin types products is key to avoiding irritation. The lotion sat great under my daily makeup routine. I didn’t get any new breakouts. No complaints from me! -

This acne wash is a great budget friendly option that keeps acne at bay. I didn’t have any new breakouts in the weeks that I have tested this. It has a very runny consistency which Im not a huge fan of. You need to rub it on your skin for a bit to let it work but the consistency makes it difficult as it may slip through your fingers. This product, like many acne products can be quite drying for your skin. As I have slowly grown out of large breakouts, I tend to reach for acne gels so that I can spot treat versus something for my entire face. I would recommend this for people in their teens where breakouts tend to pop out everywhere. I personally chose to use this product only once a day (in the morning) to avoid doing more harm than good to my skin. Skincare like this needs to be introduced to your routine to not cause extreme damage to your skin barrier. I would advise using a hydrating face cream afterwards to combat the dryness this wash will give you. As someone who has suffered from acne for over 14 years who has gone from severe acne to now mild, I have tested many products on the market. This very comparable to other brands that costs easily double to triple this ones retail price. -

I received this product free through Butterly for my honest review. These overnight spot patches are great for people who can’t help but pick at their spots! I find that when I have a patch on, I have no urge to pick at my spots at all. If you suffer from acne that sits at the surface, these will reduce the spots significantly overnight. I personally get a mix of cystic and surface acne and found these ineffective for the ones really under the skin. I prefer acne gel for those. These are very reasonably priced for a 40 pk at around $10 CAD compared to other brands (average $20 for 40 pk) I took off 1 star for general effectiveness. Acne target gels work better for all type of acne versus this can really only target the ones right at the surface. -
