Did absolutely nothing!
LaSarah (48 reviews)

I fell for the cute packaging of Benefit again! I loved the sooting camphor smell of this product and the fact that it did not irritate my skin any further, but it didn't abolutely nothing for blemishes. I would definitely not recommend this to anyone. — 4 months, 3 weeks ago

Only thing that made a difference for me
Lucyinthesky26 (14 reviews)

I used this when I was younger and got pimples frequently. It would dry them up and make them go away more quickly than other things would. I loved it. Don't use it on your entire face though, just dab some directly onto the pimples. I used mine at night after cleansing & moisturizing. — 1 year, 4 months ago

Good for mild acne
sbsungoddess (36 reviews)

When my acne wasn't that severe I would dab a lil of this on my zit and it would be gone in a day or so. Nice that its clear and easy to apply. — 2 years, 5 months ago

Not worth $20
aaebert67 (14 reviews)

With a lot of Benefit products (not all of them!) you are just paying for cute packaging. This is a perfect example of that- cute box, pretty much worthless product. I used it daily and saw almost no results, but it made my skin kind of dry. Just use Clean and Clear spot treatment- it actually does something and costs about $5. — 2 years, 8 months ago

Nothing Really Happened....
cmbarton80 (2 reviews)

The headline pretty much sums my entry up....bought the product and was psyched to see if it would help with my breakouts and....it didn't seem to have any effect on my zits....it did dry out my skin around the blemish, but the actual acne itself healed just as fast (or as slow ;-) ) as if I hadn't put anything on it at all....bummer. — 2 years, 8 months ago

Pfffft!
ladystardust (10 reviews)

I used Boo Boo Zap! for a while on one single pimple and it did absolutely nothing. It didn't dry out the pimple or even dry out my skin. And also, it smells like something you would use to keep away mosquitos. Boo on you Benefit. Don't get me wrong, Benefit cosmetics are one of my top favorites, but for $20 that I could've used for so many other things, it's a complete flop. Maybe it's just me and my skin (let's FACE it, no one is the same), but it just didn't do anything. — 2 years, 9 months ago

I like it
mansruin (11 reviews)

This worked very well for me. I buy it all the time. I apply as many times as I want and it never dries out my skin and it clears up the pimple quickly. I love this one. And, I think it is a good value, because although $20 is a lot for how little you get, it does last for a while. — 3 years, 7 months ago

This product went from good to bad
lovecouture (1 reviews)

I have used Boo Boo zap for a couple of years and it had always reduced redness and cleared up my skin but suddenly, the last bottle i bought became clear water with little white specks in it. I don't know if I got a bad bottle or what but I am definitely not going to use it again anytime soon. For 20 dollars, I want a sure thing. — 3 years, 8 months ago

not that impressed
LVRUMPOINT (23 reviews)

I was not that impressed with this product. I love Benefit products but this one didn't do much for me. Didn't dry out the zit. — 3 years, 9 months ago

Good product, but too expensive for what it does.
Laurie9797 (7 reviews)

I bought Boo Boo zap for my blemishes that pop up unexpectedly. It works pretty good, but it has a strong smell to it, and for the size that you get, I don't feel it is worth $20. There are far superior products for this purpose at a much lower price. I love Benefit, but this is not a product I'd buy in the future. — 4 years, 5 months ago
