I did not like this product. It made me broke out terribly, but skin did seem a bit brighter. I will not use this product again.

My HG! I tend to have breakouts on and off and Effaclar is my saviour. It controls the oil secreation well (I find) and helps get rid of those "hidden" pimples. It is kind of drying the first time...

I loved how this treatment reduced my inflammation and blemishes (overnight). I stopped using it b/c I had an allergic reaction to this, and changed to a PC routine and clindamicine.

Not a great SA acne treatment. There are drugstore treatments as good for a lot less money. But if you love a cream, this would be a good choice.

I didn't really like this. I think perhaps I had the "wrong" kind of acne though (small little bumps and cystic in places). I found the smell disgusting, I couldn't stand it. I used it a month and...

This is the best acne solution I ever used (I used a lot! Clinique, Chanel, Avene, Uriage and many others) It helps not only cure blemishes, but also redness left after them. It exfoliates skin...
