Pros -reduces hyperpigmentation
-reduces pimples, somewhat
Cons -not sold in australia (had to order from the US)
-smells bad
-sticky
-initial burining sensation
-itching
Bottom line if you're looking for a product that reduces hyperpigmentation, then this is your best bet. M2 simply delivers what it states.

the first time i used this, it burned...alot. it says on the bottle that you might get a slight "tingling sensation"...yeah right.

after some further, lighter applications i really did notice dramatic differences with my hyperpigmentaion. as for treating pimples, this isn't the best thing out there so i found that alternating with differin worked really well for me (just a note; don't use both at the same time). furthermore, it does nothing to prevent or treat cystic acne.

i didn't start my routine with M2, i probably introduced it about 1 month after using differin every night, and i think that was a good move since it's not great with active acne.

also, i didn't find any sort of purging effects when using M2.

the real bottom line is, if you want results and don't mind the inconveniences, then M2 is for you.

Pros Helps clearing the scars and prevents break outs. It will reduce a bump immediately.
Cons A little sticky, and might irritate the skin initially. It got better with time, no more irritation for me.
Bottom line Like any other acne Victim I have been trying out everything and anything that you can use for
Acne. I was just tired of everything. One thing I want to tell you guys is Just one product will not control your acne completely. Combination is a must, from my experience and research. Right now my regimen is

morning: 1. wash face with Biore deep cleaning. face wash with steam activated beads.
2. Use differin on entire face
3.wait for 1/2 hour before any type of makeup

Spironolactone 50mg at lunch

once I am home in evening
1.Wash my face with acne.org Cleanser
2. Mama M2 Lotion

Spironolactone 50mg at dinner

My diet is free from Caffeine, chocolate and cows milk.

substitute for cows milk for me is Almond milk (yum yum)
I do crave chocolates but I do end up getting a spot eventually if I have them.

PS. I use 100% Aleo vera as my moisturizer and sometimes Acne.org moisturizer as well.
Depends which one is on hand.

At present 99% acne free.

Pros very minor irritation for an acid
Cons odd odor, doesn't layer well, sticky if you use too much
Bottom line I used M2 (the modern version of MaMa Lotion) to treat my melasma, which I have had for about two years. I have dry, sensitive, extremely fair skin.

I used M2 for 14 weeks, applying twice weekly for two weeks (per instructions), then every other day or every day afterward. Occasionally, I applied in the morning and evening (for bad acne phases), but generally applied once a day in the evening before bed. I observed a lightening of pigmentation and some minor reduction of redness on two small patches of skin on either side of my nose within the first two weeks of use (this did not change beyond the 2nd week of use).

At weeks 7 and 8, the melasma appeared to lighten, but this was not observed beyond week 8, and even appeared to return to its previous state. At the end of 14 weeks, I saw no further improvement and stopped use.

Irritation with M2 was mild, usually a slight stinging and minor redness until acclimation (within the first 2 weeks). Peeling was very superficial and not bothersome.

After over three months of use, M2 did not have an observable effect on my melasma, but it did work well on my acne, and I keep the bottle around to use as a spot treatment.

Pros It both works for removing acne scars fast AND prevent further acne breakouts!
Cons Expensive, hard to find (but you can order it worldwide, eg. from [link removed])
Bottom line It's expensive, but if you have acne problems then it's well worth it. I'm in my 20s, I had some severe acne recently on my face leaving nasty scars on my cheeks.

I use this product one or two times a day after cleaning my face gently (with some lotion for sensitive skin). It sometimes leaves a shiny layer on the skin, so you might want to do it at night only. As recommended, I put some sunscreen when going out.

I haven't had any acne breakouts since I started doing that, despite having severe acne! Remember not to use any oily lotion (eg, avoid vitamin E oil) if you have acne. But most importantly, it significantly cleared the scars within a week or two. Brilliant.

Pros Re-surfaced my skin, acne crates disappeared, lightened up my dark spots
Cons Stinging sensations, skin tightening, strange smell that you'll eventually get used to...
Bottom line I got my MaMa lotion 2 years ago from SkinCareRx online. I was so insecure of my acne crates and all the scars it left behind so I did a ton of research and found this cream. I read all of the reviews carefully and hoped to God that it wouldn't irritate my skin or make my acne worse because it's about $50 a bottle. (Quite an investment for cream) I was skeptical but gave it a shot and I was so grateful I did. I have to admit it, it made my face smell like fart but eventually you'll get used to the smell and you'll see your skin reconstruct itself in no time. I guess they changed the branding for the lotion now and added different kinds of moisturizers and ingredients. I can't imagine how it works now, knowing it did an amazing job the first time around. I would totally recommend this but find someplace where you can order a sample size before you buy it. Remember results vary and not all products work with all skin types.

Pros Fairly easy to use, great pump bottle, fades acne scarring, resurfaces skin, kicks acne a$$.
Cons The bottle isn't see-thru, so you can't see when you're running low.
Bottom line I've been using the *new* MaMa lotion, M2, and I have to say that this is the only thing that is consistently working on my cystic acne.

It totally resurfaces your skin. Many of my acne scars that I've had for years have faded & are nearly invisible. Even during my hormonal moments, it keeps acne at bay. If I do break out, I only have a couple of zits instead of an entire crop of them. My skin is glowing & youthful-looking. I no longer have to cake makeup on my face, which is liberating in itself. Many of my friends & family have commented on how great my skin looks.

I have tried nearly every product to get rid of my acne, including a good deal of homeopathic treatments, but this is my HG anti-acne product. I'm 35 and this is the first time in my life I've felt good about my skin!

NOTE: I alternate this every other night with Dan's AHA with super results. I also use Dan's cleanser, and spray colloidal silver on my face throughout the day if I'm feeling particularly oily.
