Rated 2 out of 5 by from Don’t know how to feel about it! I bought this product hoping that it would help with my acne scars because people say it works wonders and after 3 days I did see a difference but then I started to get super red and itchy and now my whole chin and cheeks is very dry and it itches and dries up so bad after a shower. I’m not sure if that’s normal or if it goes away but I stopped using for for a week now and my face is still shedding and is very dry. Is that normal? I even use an oil for extra moisture but it observes it all.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Works fast! This is the best spot treatment I have used. It took care of my acne pretty quickly. A lot of the ones I had were gone in less than a week. It does stain your sheets because it is benzoyl peroxide, so be cautious of putting any clothing on or laying down before it is completely dry. It can be dry out your skin so use a good moisturizer as well.
