Rated 5 out of 5 by from miracle worker i use this product as an acne spot treatment whenever i can feel a pimple forming i start applying this. it works great at reducing the size of the pimple. after a couple of applications the pimple should go away with this product. works best if you don’t pop your pimples. i have found this product even helps with my cystic acne in reducing the size of the pimple and slowly dissolving it under the skin. will definitely be repurchasing this product to have on hand at all times
