    Really it’s very good

    I will be updating this review as time goes on.

    I bought this product four days ago (today is 8/29/22. I am in awe. I have been struggling with adult/cystic acne for years and have tried damn near everything. Even the fancy expensive skincare products and everything makes it WORSE. I have very sensitive skin and was getting to the point where I was getting new acne every couple of days and it was very inflamed and red. I noticed minor scarring happening and panic purchased this skin set (which I often do when I get flare ups but to no avail).

    I noticed a different within 12 hours of the first use. I used this at night and when I woke up my acne was noticeably less red and inflamed. In the four days I have been using this product I have not gotten ANY new acne. Which is a miracle.

    The current acne is getting less noticeable with each use and I want to cry I feel so relieved.

    Couple of notes:

    1. This has been working for my acne, my acne is adult and cystic and I have sensitive skin. They may not work for different skin/acne types.
    2. This is fairly drying, please use a light moisturizer after use.
    3. Apply step 2 and 3 very lightly, if you do too much it will feel like a strong menthol burning sensation.
    4. Use a cotton pad to apply step 2, it’s a liquid and can’t be applied with just your hands.
    5. This is a strong formula, particularly steps 2 and 3. Do not use steps 2 and 3 more than once a day in the beginning if you have sensitive skin. Slowly transition yourself into this routine or you could end up causing a flare up.
    6. I recommend using this at night before bed and not in the morning. It gives your skin time to soothe and calm down.
    7. On a similar note, this product will make your skin more sensitive to sun/light. Please wear a good face sunscreen everyday.
    8. Steps 1 and 2 have virtually no scent, but step 3 smells a bit odd. Nothing very strong, but I would describe it almost like latex medical gloves? So just and fyi.
    9. I have acne on my upper lip so I apply all three steps there, it has caused my top lip to chap and burn so I have had to reapply chapstick a lot throughout the day. Small price to pay in my mind.

    Overall: If you have been struggling with acne and feel at the end of your rope, for $30 this product is worth a try. But stick to it and be diligent.

    I love this product! In the past I was usually just using toner or just using a cleanser and keeping hair out of my face. I’d notice some improvement, but I have combination skin but for years I was still always dealing with excess oil production and acne in my T zone area (especially forehead). None of it has ever been excessive acne, but it was still enough to be noticeable. Finally I decided to go ahead and tackle the problem more seriously and I’m so glad I did!
    The cleanser is definitely more powerful than the ones I’ve used in the past. I limit the benzoyl peroxide to the more intense breakout areas. Definitely use that lightly because it can burn if you’re too enthusiastic, especially in areas with more delicate skin like under the eye. If you have more sensitive skin, I would definitely proceed with caution. My skin doesn’t usually react to things, but using these did cause some milder burning and irritation. When I used it with one of my moisturizers it began to burn fairly intensely, so I had to adjust my routine a bit to find something that fit. I would recommend you start slow introducing them one at a time and keeping the dosage small at first.
    Also…if you’re using retinol at night, they recommend you stick to benzoyl peroxide in the morning because the two lower each other’s effectiveness when they interact.
    Once you get the hang of it, it can definitely pay off!
    The speed that I saw benefits where impressive. After just 2 days I noticed significant improvements and now after a week my skin is almost completely clear and looks better than it has in a while! And for once…no excess T zone oiliness but a much more balanced look!

    Very good but it needs to be careful when use it because I would burn the skin I should use small amount

    Worked great to fix facial imperfections

    It feels so good on the skin, not over drying at all. I turned 30 and my skin FREAKED out so trying to find the right routine for me has been a challenge. This trio has seemed to calm my skin and prevent any new breakouts. Absolutely love this product!

  11. Earthday –

    Baseline, I have oily skin and products that help reduce excess oil are usually really great on my skin. The wash, toner and spot treatment initially felt absolutely amazing for the first two days and it was great. Instantly cleared up an active breakout on my chin, it was perfect. But by the 3rd day, my face is so incredibly dry that it burns and my skin is very splotchy and red. I don’t know if it’s just supposed to do that and I’m supposed to power through and then I’ll see great results or I need to stop immediately and move on. I’m going to decrease use to one time daily and use a gentle cleaner in the mornings for a few days and see if it gets better.

    Update:
    I’ve been using this every other day and a gentle cleanser between. My face has never been clearer, I have no active breakouts and my texture is so smooth. I bought a new moisturizer to help with the dryness throughout the day that helped. My face must’ve just been upset initially because of the change in my face product. I’ll update again in a month.

    I liked this kit a lot. It’s lasted me a couple of months. I don’t use it everyday but most days. I love the face wash and the toners okay just a little drying where I feel like I need a heavy moisturizer after using the face wash and the toner so I don’t use the toner that much. The spot treatment didn’t work for me and it kind of burns if you put too much on or rub it into your skin. This kit is great for someone wanting to try it out because everyone’s skin reacts differently.
