Very Pink, But Works! By WarPainted on - Updated Oct 15, 2011
The good news is that it works! You can dab a swab into the mix, dot it over you skin, and in an hour or so any tender areas that might be developing a pimple will dry out and dramatically reduce swelling. Because it does work I can't complain too much, but if I wanted to complain.... this is what I would say!• It is pink. Damn pink. Think Calamine lotion pink. Not something I would wear under make up or out in public.
• You need a cotton swab to apply. Most people have cotton swabs around, but I don't like that it is required. The "magic" behind this concoction is that you have to let it separate and you dip the swab into the settlement at the bottom of the bottle. Would have been cool if it came with something like a nail polish brush that attached to the inside of the cap and reached into the bottom of the bottle for easier application.
• The box is about 5 times larger than the product inside. There is no way they need to waste that much paper - or- include some of those required swabs in the wasted space!
• It is a spot treatment only, so instead of being able to control acne that hasn't formed, you just have to damage control the ones that have already appeared.
Still, it really does work and for the price I would suggest it to anyone!

I really need this stuff. I get hormonal breakouts (gasp!) and it's almost impossible to get rid of the pesky pimples without scarring. I had almost given up hope. I'll check stores online to see about ordering. Thanks for the product recommendation.
Sounds like a good product. And I like pink!
