Spectro Jel : Cleanser for Blemish Prone Skin

In just two days it even out my skin texture on my face, The pharmacist recommended it to me for chapped skin around my mouth which occurred from switching face wash brands. This product went beyond balancing out my skins pH, it even started clearing up acne and acne scars. It made me realize that good stuff doesn't have to come in pretty packaging to work, because those products are the ones that cause the problems in the first place.

Comparitively speaking, this is one of the better products out there. It has mostly good ingredients, and is very gentle and moisturizing. Give it a try, especially if you haven't found something that works yet... **PS after I stopped using this brand I started breaking out ?? I don't know if that is jsut hormones or chance or maybe it's from stopping using Spectro..I'm thinking of switching back if it doesn't improve soon.

Given the many products I've tried for acne, I usually don't get the opportunity to write a good review; however, Spectrojel is simply the BEST cleanser I've ever used.... BAR NONE! My skin usually reacts with virtually ANY chemical I put on my face and typically has a red, ruddy appearance. Within a week of using this product, the redness was significantly reduced and I started to see my skin get clearer than it has been in years (used in conjunction with Neutrogena OTS). It also doesn't dry my skin out like most other cleansers. There is some "tightness" right after I use it, but my skin doesn't get flaky. The consistency takes a little geting used to, and it doesn't lather up. In fact, it doesn't seem to be a particularly strong cleanser: perhaps it's just strong enough to get the job done without the irritation. Though it is expensive to ship it in from Canada, I would recommend it to anyone. Why don't they sell this stuff in the States?

everything you look for in a cleanser except it may be slightly TOO gentle as exfoliation of flakes it is not very good at. and it doesnt work as a shaving creme. but its super gentle, oil free and wont clog pores, no alcohol, gel base, big pump bottle for a good price. Canadian made product from a dermotologist recommended brand. they also come in a DRY skin formula which i may try next to battle the skin flakes.

It did not work for me. I loved the way it made your skin feel - smoother than a baby's butt; but after one week I broke out (a lot of fine white-heads and a few red pimples). During the first week I used it consistently day and night. I tried it again three times in the coming month (meaning I just used it once in the morning) and got the same results. But the last time I tried it was the worst. It was the worst breakout I had ever (I've had acne for 3 years now), and I doubt that its an allergic reaction. I got around 7-10 full, red pimples on my chin/jawline, and the medication i was using (StayClear ® Vanishing Acne Treatment Cream - with sulfur and resorcinol) would normally dry up my pimples in 2 days, 5 days tops; but these stayed for around 2 weeks with no absolutely change. BOTTOM LINE: Try it, it might work great, but if it doesn't, don't go back and just try it to see if it works "this time 'round".

I've been using Spectro Jel ( purple bottle) For only three days and my skin is SOO much better! I really think this product may actually be a keeper! Its the only thing that Ive ever used that has been this effective. I LOVE IT! and I absolutely recommend it to anyone, my skin was never to bad to beggin with but it sure wasnt good. If youre thinking about getting Spectro I say go for it! you'll love it

i used the one for oily skin and it worked very well. i found that it took a little while to start clearing up my skin but it made my skin feel soft and rejuvenated after each wash. i didn't find it to be drying. if you are switching in between products try a milder variation of this brand. it is well worth the try.

I've just started using spectro jel products. I'm using the cleanser, 2.5% BP, and the moisturizer. So far so good. I'm pleased with these products so far.

I've been using this product for 5+ years and cannot find a better, more inexpensive alternative to this gel cleanser. I keep a bottle in the shower and another on the bathroom counter.

I started using this because I had allergic reaction to my last cleanser so my derma gave me this to use instead. I've been using this for quite a while and it's really good for people with sensitive skin. Also one tiny 50 ml bottle lasted me the entire summer! so it really stretches your dollar :)
