didnt work
Honestly, this product did work for a little bit but after a while it quite working. It doesn't clear up acne or any thing the product claims to do. I do not recommend this to anyone. It's just not worth the buy.

Burning Sensation.

Pros:

None.

Cons:

Harsh Chemicals
Smells Bad
Makes Acne Worse

I first saw Clean & Clear's Acne Spot Treatment advertised in Seventeen magazine for a "miracle cure." The bottle costed around $13 CA. I didn't think it was that bad, considering the cost of makeup and I was desperate for a cure. The first time I applied Clean & Clear, it felt like my skin was being eaten away by harsh chemicals. I understood that it was the gist of the product, and continued to use it. My cousin, nineteen years old, has dry skin/moderate acne. She tried this product and her skin was inflamed, (more) dry and irritated. Me, on the other hand, with combination skin (oily T-zone) and moderate acne, had my skin inflamed, irritated, dried out and the effects were horrible. It made my acne worse!

Started off good, and ended up terrible.

Pros:

Clears acne at first.

Cons:

Creates more breakouts
Dries out skin.

When I first used this product I thought I had found the miracle cream. I originally got it in the Clean & Clear Advantage acne kit and it worked miracles on breakouts I already had. But as time went on I noticed the more it cleared up the acne I already had, the more would appear. And they would be larger and hurt a lot more. Would not recommend this to anyone other than a fast ONE day solution but not long term.

spot treatment wonder!!

Pros:

cheap
gets rid of all redness very quickly, within minutes
doesn't have a powerful smell and can be covered with makeup after it has dried

Cons:

may cause some dryness
if your skin is really sensitive maybe you shouldn't use it everyday

This stuff works wonders!! I have some red acne bumpy thingies with small white heads on top and this stuff made it go away over night nearly!! and after two days i had nothing left besides a few older acne marks. It does sting a VERY little bit for like 5 seconds...more like a cold sensation. love this stuff!!

Impressed

Pros:

Smells good
Improvements seen by next day

Cons:

Stings, but that's how you know it's working

I have moderate acne; with breakouts that occur every month. This product really helped with the pimple size, swelling & redness all by the next day. I was impressed by this product and would reccomend it.

Pros:

- gets rid of acne really fast
- gives you this tingly feeling, making it feel like its really working
- doesn't stink

Cons:

- really burns when you apply it over a newly popped pimple

Really works. My forehead used to be covered with large red pimples, now it's almost practically all gone, with the exception of some teeny tiny spots now and then.

Pros:

works
inexpensive
easy to find (I've seen it at target, cvs, and walmart)
small packaging (easy to throw in a backpack, purse, or gym bag)

Cons:

Takes a few days to clear up the pimple (does speed up the process though)
Stings a little (but not badly)

Great if you get the occasionally pimple or two and don't want to target your entire skincare routine towards acne.

Pros:

-works effectively
-diminishes the breakout in 1-2 days
-good for little breakouts

Cons:

-stings a little, but nothing unbearable
-if you try using another product on top, it flakes so do your normal skincare before the spot treatment

Great product for a drugstore product. Definitely recommend this to anyone with light/minimal acne, for cystic acne, you might need something stronger.

Pros:

Results show the next day.

Cons:

The people who say it stings are pussies. It's not bad at all. It's more like a "minty/ tingly" feel.

I love this product, and it's the only other acne treatment I use other than face wash.
