This doesn't do much. It doesn't really treat the pimple too well, but it does help a bit. When you put it on it turns a tanned orange colour which could scare a person, but no this is not my fav...

I would love to like this product but I dont think it was as effective as Retin A. It didnt cause breakouts but it didnt help get rid of it either. Definitely not for treating acne.

Bumpy, pimply, cyst like pimples on chin. Used Diacneal everyday for 1 week. Pimples shriveled up and died. Redness disappeared. Will repurchase.

This cream is to be applied every night you need it and works on the skin reducing redness and scarring, opening up pores (you may get a few more zits the first few days) and evening out the skin....
