Useless
Used it for a week all it does is dry out your skin..not even the pimples smells bad too. Could be the fact my skin has become immune to zinc but i genuinely believe that has nothing to do with it.

Pros:

soothing

Cons:

Left my skin covered in little bumps that eventually came to the surface as awful acne

After reading lots of reviews I was excited to try this stuff. I bought the CVS brand and while it seemed to work well at first, I developed little bumps on my cheeks after about a week. Over he past 3 weeks all these bumps have been coming to the surface, giving me the worst acne I have ever had. I went back to my usual regimen of vigil coconut oil and feel that works much better.

Pros:

It made old red marks look better

Cons:

It clogged my pores and left me with small bumps all over. Did not prevent new acne

The clear caladryl sucks! It clogged my pores and gave me small bumps all over. The actual calamine did not have this effect, but did not prevent acne either.
