    I am very allergic to Benzyl Peroxide and I needed something stronger than just BHA/AHA exfoliating ingredients. I tried this with its sulfur acne ingredient and it worked great! I break out a...

    I got this in a kit from PTR. My skin responds well to sulfur products and this is no exception. It will take down a pimple in about three days. There is a dramatic reduction even after one day....

    This stuff is awesome. It has worked without fail to reduce the size of any pimple I get overnight. I could care less about the smell of something if it works. It stings at first, but once I put...

    I've found the treatment highly effective after one week of use. The sulfur is working on my adult hormonal chin/cheek acne as AHA or BHA alone haven't. The smell was strong at first but it...

    Yes it stinks, but for an acne spot reducer, it works quite well and quick.

    Yes, it stinks to high heaven, but it works, and you only need a tiny amount. I put literally a dot-sized amount on a newly forming pimple, and poof, size and redness much reduced by the next...
