I'm really surprised with all of the reviews here. It generally seems to be very positive. Whenever I put this product on my skin, it burns it. The entire area it was on will stay extremely red for...

I really like it so far. It does a good job of keeping any large breakouts in check and from swelling up. My biggest complaint is that it doesn't tackle blackheads like other BP products I've used....

Part of my HG skincare routine: I use this nightly after I cleanse and apply my BHA gel. My skin as of late has been clear and glowing. Highly recommended to those with acne prone skin.
