Pros:

lightened skin, helped with acne scarring (ice pick)
It does not smell bad and absorbs very quickly.

Cons:

stings a bit, skin flakes excessively at first

I would recommend this product for hyperpigmentation...also it works fairly well on acne scarring (although you need to give it several months to see some kind of significant difference). Makes face soft as a babys bottom with continued use along with a good moisturizer.. Mama, you've met your papa in me ;)

Pros:

Reduces pimpless, redness, and scarring.

Cons:

May be a little expensive for some.

Most of the acne products I've used have been medications prescribed by my doctor, but I found that none of those truly worked. Then I decided to try MaMa Lotion and I'm really glad I did. My skin has cleared up a lot, and is also less oily. Bottom line, MaMa lotion is good for reducing acne, but it does not make it go away (although I do not believe there is a product that will do that) I STILL get pimples here and there, but they are usually small and gone within a day or two. Before using MaMa, I would get very large cystic type acne, but not anymore. I really like this product and will continue to use it in hopes that I will have even better reviews after a few years of use. TIP: It is best to use this lotion with a moisturizer, as the lotion is a bit sticky and will help make your skin feel more smooth.

Pros:

Good exfoliant. Reduces hyperpigmentation from old acne. Helps minorly with scarring other than hyperpigmentation.

Cons:

Will not do the job on true acne scars. Need a more serious treatment. Does not effectively eliminate breakouts. Consistency is thick and can be grainy.

I used this product for a year. I would use it every night. It makes your skin smoother as most hydroxy acids do and does a great job with clearing up red spots from old acne, but it did not stop me from breaking out, just reduced breakouts a bit. And I still have the rolling scars from some bad blemishes. Dan's regimen or BP works better for reducing breakouts, however, BP doesn't do anything for the scars. Only recommended for people who are not breaking out anymore or who have very mild acne and hyperpigmentation problems.

Pros:

Smooth skin
Reduced acne scars
Even out skin tone

Cons:

None

I have been suffering with acne since my late 20's. I read the reviews on here about MaMa Lotion and decided to try it out. I have to say that I am extremely pleased with the results. For anyone that has tried everything - and I mean EVERYTHING - try MaMa Lotion. It has worked wonders on my overly sensitive skin. I followed the twice/wk directions then continue to use it every night before going to bed. I was very amazed at how smooth my skin appeared in the morning (and how my picky skin tolerated the product). I apply my moisturizer immediately after. Any skeptics will be pleasantly surprised.

Pros:

seemed like it started working immediately. made skin smooth, soft and decreased inflammation of current acne.

Cons:

none

i actually got this as a sample for free because i actually ordered green cream, which is a retinol, and the mama lotion came with it. i decided to alternate the two between nights and it seems to be working a lot. the mama lotion really calms things down and i can already see improvement. i don't have a lot of cystic acne, just mostly clogged pores and some scarring, but this seems to be working better than anything i've tried over the years. i'm quite a skeptic about acne products and this is definitely worth a try, especially if you're looking for something to fix the skin from past acne problems. i will buy a bigger bottle of it when the sample is done, which i hear is a bit costly but worth it.

Pros:

affordable, can be used all over body from face, neck, back, arms, chest, belly, arms, hands, legs, soles of feet.

Cons:

is a bit sticky, but takes about 10-15 minutes to absorb.

I received it in my kit when I started my master asthetics program. That was 6 months ago. Since then it has noticeably evened out my skin tone, faded my malasma dramatically, cleared up acne and scares from them, my husband no longer gets the HORRIBLE ingrown hairs on his neck, produce less oil in T-zone, brighter skin, clears up back breakouts, lightened and smoothed texture of pregnancy borthmarks, diminished dog bite scar that was almost two years old on hand, clearing up the Keratosis Pilaris (bumps on arms). I LOVE THIS PRODUCT. Just keep at it. Spots WILL GET DARKER BEFORE THEY LIGHTER! Nothing works over night. And it will push out imperfections up to the surface at first. Keep at it.

Pros:

Does prevent further breakouts

Cons:

I have a strange condition of ultradryness in spots where I had applied too much MaMa possibly. No acne there, but the skin is dry, scaly and hyperpigmented. You can definitely overdo it, so don't go too crazy with it.

I use this product with caution, as things that are truly effective ALL have should be used carefully. Except for the dry patches on my back, I love this product. It has transformed my skin, and I don't need to use it much at all anymore.

Pros:

Easy to apply. Fairly fast at seeing results

Cons:

Seems pricey at first glance. But when you realise that one bottle will last you 4 months or more, the costs then seem much more reasonable.

Being in the UK I only had one choice of outlet to buy MaMa from.

Been reading rave reviews about 'MaMa' so decided to take the plunge & give it a go. I have now been using it every day for a full month & am pleased with the Results. Even though I have sensitive skin I suffered no skin peeling using MaMa. The reason might be that I had been using Retin-A a while back which did cause a LOT of peeling. So maybe my skin had built up a bit of tolerance! I started to see results after about a week. My skin tone began to improve & I got less in the way of breakouts occurring. I think you really have to give this product about 3 or 4 months to probably see the full effects that MaMa could do for your skin. I am hopeful that the results I have had so far will continue to improve the quality of my skin. I always moisturise about 30 mins after applying MaMa using 'Simple' brand moisturiser
