Review: Clinique Acne Solutions Spot Treatment Gel

A few of my friends have been raving about this particular product and since the infamous "Mario Badescu: Drying Lotion" wasn't working for me, i thought i'd give it a try also.
I never really liked using Clinique products before since they didn't work for me, but i was desprid and was willing to try just about anything. I usually get acne here and there when i'm stressed and especially when it's that time of the month. Hate them, ruins my week, destroys my plan of trying to go out with a naked face.
But this stuff works pretty nicely i have to say. I mean, it's not instant but it does have results. It's basically salicylic acid. It's a gel form that you just apply over your pimple and can touch up anytime of the day. I noticed it dries my acne up a lot faster and shrinks it, and it you detect a pimple coming and put some on at night, the next morning, it's not there anymore. But that only works for small ones, if you get a bigger one, it takes more than a one time application. But to me, it did make a difference, not the best thing, but at least it did something.

  2. Wow this seems like an awesome solution! I break out when ever I eat any "naughty" foods ( chips, fries, burgers etc.) and I get a TON whenever I get my strawberry! I actually use a prescript-ed gel cream that dries up my pimples basically over night, it saves me life (literally) it sounds really similar to this product but maybe a bit stronger since it's prescript-ed (and suppose to be my moms but I use it anyways =P) Thanks for the awesome review though! Might pick it up in case of emergency ( mom taking it away from me when I need it the most!)

  3. Hm. I need salicylic acid, but not for acne. I suppose a spot treatment doesn't work as an overall on my skin.

  5. I hate getting bad skin too - I found when I stopped eating junkfood my skin got better (although was lucky it was never bad to begin with). This sounds like a good product though :)

  8. Anyone ever tried red light treatment? A friend has recommended it to me but not exactly sure - creams and washes always seem more appealing to me. There's a few products out there on the market that look pretty good though - LMS Spotlights are a new one in the UK which seem to have some good reviews.

  9. Even if this seems to be the perfect solution to treat acne I think you should ask a qualified dermatologist before using it, because you might be allergic to one of it's components and this won't improve your condition.
