Review: Actually works! - To put it simply, this is the best product I've tried for spots. It beats all the face washes, creams, scrubs I have ever wasted money on, and is better than the stuff i got on prescription from the doctor. Finally found something that actually works! I've used it for only about 2 nights, and there is already improvement. The drying lotion manages to dry up the spot, but without drying up the skin around it. It reduces breakouts and a little bit of redness too. It looks VERY weird compared to other stuff, and you end up with pink smears on your face, but if your going to bed it doesn't really matter does it? The only bad point (but not enough to lose a star) is the smell. When you first put it on your skin there is a very sulfuric smell, but this goes when it dries. I am definately going to buy more Mario Badescu products.
Review: Wow - I never write reviews, but this product just surprised me. I didn’t look at the size before I bought it so I was shocked to see 29ml, I thought it was at least 50. But a little goes a long way. I’ve used this overnight for a few days now and I can already see a difference in my breakouts. It’s expensive for a small bottle but the difference is outstanding. 10/10 would buy again.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this work on blackhead at all ?**
A: No! Best thing I found for blackheads is a fake Foreo from eBay, I pop a wet towel into the microwave to open my pores up, use the black head tools to extract them and clean my face with the fake Foreo, then use a cold cloth to close the pores.

**Q: Does it work for small skin tags on the face?**
A: No afraid not.

**Q: Does it work on blackheads (preferably on the nose)?**
A: No. The only thing I tried that somehow works on blackheads is Cosrx blackhead Power Liquid. Not a miracle solution though

**Q: Can you use this on the back of the head where hair is**
A: Im not an expert BUT I do not see why not. Usually products that are designed to be used on the face are most likely to be safe to use most places on the body. Try it out and the best advice I ever got is 'if it stings a little; it okay, burn is never okay'. (Although the alcohol in this product might give you a slight burning sensation).

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Really impressed
*by E***S on 30 January 2020*

This product is really good. At first I was quite sceptical but I’ve been using it for a week now and it has quite helped with my problem. I rarely get spots but for some time now, I’ve been getting really red and sore spots just near my hair line on my temple, the spots are under the skin with no heads. After the first day of using it, it had completely gotten rid of the redness and soreness and the spots were visibly smaller, it had totally helped. The only thing I would say however, is that it smells really strong and if can be quite powerful at times but if you can ignore it, it’s fine. Would recommend😁
