not much of a difference

I thought I would try this since it claims to reduce redness, shine, and fight breakouts. I have used almost every acne product on the market, and this one is mediocre at best. I like the way it reduces redness since it is a lightly tinted powder. I do not like the smell (sulfur products have that rotten egg smell) and it made the pimples look dry and flaky. If you use salicylic acid or benzoyl...read more peroxide that dries out pimples, this powder can accentuate the dry areas. I can't tell if it reduced breakouts, but it did offer sheer coverage of red areas which any other powder can do without the yucky smell. Overall, a good concept but will not buy again.

POOF....its gone!

A friend of mine turned me onto this and I LOVE IT! If I feel a pimple coming up or wake up with one already there, I dab a little on (with a small brush I bought) and by the end of the day or over night ,its gone. It even acts as a conceler in a way...covers the redness.

It didn't work for me.

I was so excited when I brought this home. But, the excitement didn't last once I had opened it and started to apply it. It's a dry powder and the brush isn't good at picking/holding the powder, so when I applied it to my..ahem, bumps, it fell/flaked EVERYWHERE! Needless to say, it didn't work because it couldn't stay on. I can't recommend this. :/

Great!

This stuff works really good. It does dry skin but not alot like some other products. It works pretty quickly and I can apply it any time of day. It's also great cause it can double as a concealer. Lovee it!

Terrif!

I'm not prone to massive breakouts, but this offers a great way to control zits when they do pop up. Like many blemish treatments I've tried before, this dries skin out, but gets the job done. And not to recycle the words of a soon-to-be-former-president, it's a great "preemptive strike" against future breakouts.
