Works really well, but worked better for me when I would apply it to a forming cyst instead of a full-blown mountain. When I feel a cyst forming I apply 3 times a day and within 24-48 hours the...

I am really starting to like this stuff. It doesn't work overnight but if you put it on a soon as you see a cyst forming it really does help. Even putting it on after one has formed does help it...

2 lippies because this just did not work for me. Mario Badescu's Buffering Lotion is way better and costs less than half the price. I had to ship this all the way from USA (I live in Asia) and...

This is the best product I've ever used for my hormonal cystic acne, so why the 3 lippy rating? Imagine my joy to reach 35 years of age and STILL have the skin of a teenager (and NOT in a good...

This is a godsend. I don't suffer from cysts often but when they do hit every six months or so, they're horrible, as they are for everyone. This speeds up the healing process greatly - the biggest...
