La Roche-Posay : Effaclar Duo

This stuff is awful. I went from having moderate acne to having severely painful pimples appear all over my face. My skin is now the worst it has ever been. Do not buy this product!

I have rather severe acne clustered only on my forehead, and the area between brows. I started using this product since the beginning of November. It's weird that I start to get acne at the beginning of November for two years straight now. After 2 months of consistent usage of this product, I finally got rid of the stubborn forehead acne. I use this product twice daily in combination with La Roche Posay's Effaclar Duo cleanser and Neutrogena's Moisture (Oil free) lotion. At the same time, I make simple honey mask every night before bedtime, and let it hang on my face for roughly half hour. And I highly recommend to eat extremely healthy for about a month just to remove the toxins in your body. Though you will not see immediate effects of eating healthy, but that will help with your overall body well-being, and after about a month since you start to eat healthy you will begin to see smoother skin that glows. As well as a good sleeping pattern improves the way your skin looks. Make sure you re sleeping at a time when you usually sleeps, and no later after 1 AM(personally).

I have struggled with acne since I was in fourth grade. My father had horrible skin so I guess I got it from him. I have tried so many products and wasted so much money. The only thing that worked was Accutane but the side effects were horrible. I can honestly say this stuff is amazing. My skin feels and looks so much better. I would recommend this to anyone. I am so glad I found this at CVS and decided to give it a try. Best decision I ever made.

Ive tried this as a daily treatment with the Laroche Posay gel foaming cleanser... It sucked. I still had breakouts and blackheads and my face felt even oilier (oily/combination skin). However, whenever I feel a pimple coming on or even when one has already formed I use it as a spot treatment overnight and by the AM its gone or ALMOST gone. Bottom line is its not meant to be used daily... The skin specialist that sold it to me told me that the day I bought it (Unfortunately I chose to rebel and do what I wanted to do). She also told me it was a great spot treatment an she was right! You will see a result.

Do not use this product. I was just finished a 5 month course of accutane and had perfectly clear skin. I applied this and my whole face broke out into hundreds - and i mean hundreds of pimples. Awful stuff

This cleared the majority of acne on my forehead but was less effective on the acne around my chin and cheeks. There was also sort of a trade off, with less pimples this gave me more white heads, though i still prefer having white heads to a bunch of pimples. I feel like this could be a very good solution for acne if combined with another effective treatment, but alone it just wasn't enough.

I am only 13 but my face is covered in acne it works like nothing i have ever tried but i havent really ever tried a really good quality product. All iv tries are the stuff off the shelves at the drugstore I RECCOMEND THIS PRODUCT TO ANYBODY AND EVERYBODY!!!!!

This is the only thing that has worked on my forehead acne, I am 36 years old and have always struggled with acne, I highly recommend this product!!

This is the best acne cream I've found. I've had moderate acne for at least 10 years, especially around my chin and after a few weeks I've noticed a dramatic decrease in new pimples, and it cleared up the current ones right away.

Had acne on neck still at 37 yrs having tried almost every med and over counter product this simple cream actually works. I use it with toner and gel cleanser my skin is clear at last!
