Product Description
Clean and Clear Acne Spot Treatment is designed for people who have oily skin and frequently suffer from breakouts. This salicylic acid-based acne treatment helps clean out pores and reduce pimple size and swelling. Apply it after washing your face up to three times a day. It is a clear gel that can be easily applied underneath or on top of makeup for a quick fix during the day without having to redo any cosmetics. It can be used to reduce the size of one problem pimple or used over the entire face daily to quell a breakout. The manufacturer has even claimed that the treatment can show results in as little as four hours.

User Reviews
Many users report that they are able to see results overnight, especially with large, painful pimples. Evening application may reduce the size of the problem pimple by morning. Many users, after having success with the treatment for spot control, apply the cream to their entire face daily to prevent future breakouts. However, they recommend limiting application to no more than three times a day to prevent over-drying.

If any red, flaky spots occur, simply scale back on your Clean and Clear Acne Spot Treatment use, and make sure you're using a moisturizer to help combat dryness.

One user applied the treatment to her dark marks and facial acne scars and received great results. Her marks lightened, and her skin tone evened out from using Clean and Clear Acne Spot Treatment. She was even able to avoid a visit to the dermatologist.

Many people troubled by frequent acne get better results by switching from a benzoyl peroxide-based medication to a salicylic acid-based one like this product.
