excellent acne product
My 15-year-old grandson loves this product. It clears up his skin quite nicely in a few days. It’s not instant, but the zits start fading in a couple of days and then…

Great for teens with acne!!!
This acne treatment works very well for my teenage daughter. We have tried other products, but this seems to work the best and is reasonably priced.

I Love This Product, I Really Do…
This is honestly the best thing I’ve ever come across for my acne… Didn’t get rid of it all, but nothing has, including an expensive 5th Avenue dermatologist, the zeno (pretty…

Fantastic Product
Fantastic product that really works. My skin showed dramatic improvement after just one week of use – cleared up blackheads, white bumps and large pores.

FANTASTIC!!!
This product is absolutely awesome. I’ve had acne since childhood and tried this when I was in my mid 30’s. I’ve tried many products including Proactiv.

WOW – this is the BEST acne spot treatment I have ever used!
This is worth every penny! You can use the spot treatment anywhere you have “issues”… it works extremely fast & is not overly drying.

Waste of Money
This product is a waste of money. After reading some of the positive reviews, I decided to waste $20+ on it to see if it will help.

I wish I had found this product long ago.

It is the only thing I've actually rated 5-star on Amazon because I believe it rates it.

It reduces visible zits when applied directly to them- sometimes in just a couple of hours.

When applied to the whole face after a warm shower just before bed, you wake up with a clearer, cleaner, tighter face. The acidity kills acne-causing bacteria on and below the surface of the skin, dissolving oily residue, preventing clogged pores, and eating away dead skin.

I found this product in Paris, and a few years later it started to be exported to the USA. Until then, I was spending alot of money to purchase and ship it here into the USA where I live. Now that it is available on Amazon.com, I'm so overwhelmed with happiness.

I cannot possibly say enough. This stuff really is that good. 10/10!!!

I love this product! I have tried literally hundreds of beauty products from many countries and in every price range. I've used cetaphil and creme de la mer... However, I can say that after two months of using this product it is the best thing I have found for my acne-prone skin. As my dermatologist always emphasizes after I tell him I feel like I'm wasting my money, there is no such thing as a miracle. He's right, and I still get some breakouts, but this has helped- noticeably.

It also did not dry my skin the way all other acne products seem to do. I pair it with LRP's toleriane moisturizer and I get no flakes at all, and almost no zits. Best thing I've ever found for my acne; in my case better than prescription gels or antibiotics. My skin started getting better in a few days, but give it a try for at least 2-3 weeks since it takes some people longer to see results.

Loving this so far
Like many other reviewers, I’ve tried many products to treat my adult skin that breaks out (especially around the chin area).

I highly recommend this product in combination with other Biomedic products from LaRoche-Posay for the treatment of stubborn acne. I had trouble with moderate to severe acne for most of my 20s. I tried everything – accutane, 5 kinds of antibiotics, differin gel, ortho tri-cyclen + aldactone, stuff from tv, and oftentimes, I used several of the treatments in combination, as directed by my ever-hopeful dermatologist. Finally, I went to a plastic surgeon to see about some scar treatments, and before he did any major procedures, he put me on a combination of effaclar K, a couple of other biomedic products, Retin-A micro, and I had regular micro-dermabrasion and/or facial peel treatments. Retin-A Micro gave me really dry skin, so after I cut that out, everything else worked perfectly. I know other people’s recommendations can be annoying, especially when you’re certain that nothing will work, but I’d say that this product is worth a try! It really did help me. I continued to use it even after I stopped going to regular microdermabrasion appointments, and I have never had a reoccurence of acne. (As a side note, I also avoided major plastic surgery as a result of the success.)

I had minimal acne all through high school but in my first year of college it really started to become noticeable.
