Neutrogena Rapid Clear Stubborn Acne Spot Treatment Gel, Maximum Strength 10% Benzoyl Per-oxide Treatment Medication for Acne Prone Skin, Pimple Cream Reduces Size & Redness, 1 oz

This Works & Stops Active Breakouts
Pros:- This product doesn’t have much of a smell. (slight chemical scent at first but dissipates quickly)- It does kill acne / active breakouts- Works quickly, 5-7 days to see visible improvements- Strongest concentration available without a prescriptionCons:- Very strong which means it is highly irritating and drying- Does not dry clear- Bleaches everything- Will cause skin sensitivity, a good SPF will be needed daily, as well as a moisturizer. A con only if you don’t like having a skincare routineMy skin is oily, acne prone, and slightly sensitive. Benzoyl peroxide is very harsh and drying, so if you are a beginner, I wouldn’t recommend this only because of the common beginner’s error of using more than you need, thinking it will work faster. Start with 2.5% or 5% first, and then switch to this once your skin adjusts and you have a feel for how much you actually need. This product in particular is very strong, it is harsh, but it works. When used consistently, it will clear active breakouts and prevent new ones from forming. As I mentioned above, you will need both a moisturizer and a facial sunscreen of at least SPF 30, because Benzoyl Peroxide causes photosensitivity. Sun exposure will also cause any leftover scarring to darken and stick around on your face for much longer.As a side note, if you have sensitive skin and this is too irritating, you can try out a benzoyl peroxide based face wash. Those do work – there are studies proving benzoyl peroxide to be effect with short contact on skin. A leave-on BP product is infinitely more harsh on the skin than a wash-off formula but for some breakouts, a leave-on is necessary.For active breakouts, Neutrogena’s Rapid Clear Stubborn Acne Spot Gel works well. Benzoyl peroxide is a powerful ingredient, 10% is the maximum recommended concentration which is what this product contains. 10% is very drying, so you will need a moisturizer with this, otherwise you will probably experience a breakout due to your skin being overdried. This product is a white cream that does NOT dry clear. I like to use it as a spot treatment (at night only, because it is streaky and white) on active pimples and as a cream over areas that I get breakouts (chin, forehead). It also bleaches everything, so keep your hair pulled back and sleep with an old towel on your pillow. I don’t think you could use this during the day, even when it dries if you try to apply make-up over it will flake (and it dries white and tends to “crackle” and flake)Overall, 5 stars because it’s benzoyl peroxide, and it does what it is supposed to do. This is packaged well, the cap seals it well so there’s no problems with oxidizing. It only works if you use consistently. I went with Neutrogena because it’s a trusted brand I have had success with in the past, and I also enjoy their lines of moisturizers.

Works well!
With so many acne products out there, I have to say this one actually works. You don’t need much—just dab it on and the spot goes away. No need to pop anything and introduce germs into your pores. If you get small pimples here and there, this really helps clear them. These were highly recommended to me, and now I see why.

Average
It only works while you’re on it, but once you stop all the acne comes back again. It is pricey considering its size

La recomiendo para el que tenga acné en la cara
Esta crema me la recomendó una amiga y la compré a ver si funcionaba con migo para el acné y de verdad está muy bueno nada más que me salía un granito me la untaba y en unos días el grano se secaba no quita mancha de acné si no que si te sale un grano y lo tienes feo inchando te lo untas todas las noche para que se seque y en una semana vez resultado mis es periencia con neutragena es muy buena

excelente producto, pero ojo, no es crema facial ni para el día. Se usa para la noche, eso lo recomiendo. Te pones en los granos o que estan por salir te los aplicas antes de dormir porque esa crema te deja color blanco y no es bueno que te expongas con el sol. Solo te hacen parar el crecimiento de grano, no desaparece. Pero igual te ayuda mucho a tener cutis totalmente limpio. Si eres de esos disciplinados para uso diario antes de dormir, te lo recomiendo al 100%. con uso diario se te ira desapareciendo los granos.

It’s great to dry out ur acne in da spot and it’s true within 2 hours ur acne start heelingBut!! You need to use daily once or twice for 4 weeks to have the best result and apply only in pimple not in the whole area
