    The 15 ml blue glass bottle comes with an attached wand applicator which you use to dab the lotion on your face. The lotion is white ,thick in consistency and smells heavily of aromatherapy oils -...

    I bought this at 25 USD, which is almost twice the price of the Mario Bedusco Drying Potion at the same size. This is a white drying potion that stings upon applicaiton, and quickly dries. When it...

    This product may work for some people, but I'm not one of them. After reading about this amazing pimple eraser in a magazine, I thought it seemed like a solid purchase. However, when I applied it...

    Wow, what a disappointment. Does absolutely nothing for me. I, too, bought this product after reading last year's Allure Best of Beauty issue; thanks for nothing. I'd been looking for something...

    I have not found that this product dries out a pimple overnight and helps it to disappear. Instead I wake up bright red in the exact area it was applied- almost as if the skin has been burned and...

    Wow! I'm in the minority here, but this product DID get rid of a pimple overnight for me! It leaves a white cast on your skin, so I would only use this at night. However, I guess the ingredients...

    This product worked well on me. Helped reduce the pimples and dries them quickly. Overall the pimple goes away in a day or two and doesn't leave any scarring. The applicator is useful although the...

    I bought this once when my beauty supply had run out of a similar product by Mari Badescu. I didn't see that this product did anything to hurry along my pimples. Over-the-counter acne creams are...

    Doesn't Mario Badescu carry a similiar product to this called "Drying Lotion"? They both claim to do miracles but I'm not a huge fan of this product. Yes, it does dry up pimples/zits, but it ends...

    I use the Irritation products by Sonya Dakar and love them. I have only used this product 3 times and has worked pretty well on the tiny blemishes I have gotten. Hasn't irritated either. Get it...

    I am a Sonya Dakar junkie (have been using this line for over 4 years), but this product is worthless. Don't waste your money!

    I bought this and it was OK. It didn't really clear my skin as well as any other drugstore blemish cream does. Also, I don't know if it's because of my location (PA), but I bought it and kept...

    It doesn't work as well as regular clay mask for overnight drying of pimples in my case. Too expensive for what it does. Won't repurchase.
