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

The stuff is amazing. I don’t have super active acne anymore, but when I do get a pimple, it’s a giant cystic pimple and it usually takes over a week for it to flare up real big and eventually hopefully decrease and it gets ugly nasty and painful when I put the stuff on, I literally wake up the next morning and it’s completely gone. I wish I would’ve known about this in my teenage years. I put it on for maybe 2 to 3 days in a row worst case scenario but every single day it’ll shrink I just put them on at night on the pimple.

Definitely works to dry out and clear up stubborn, acne, and pimples pretty quickly - sometimes even stops a pimple from coming out if you put it on at the first sign - this is my go to spot treatment right now..

This treatment started fine. I applied it once a day. First, it got super flaky and started peeling off. It dried out my skin. But... it was kinda worth it when I saw how much tinier my pimples were getting... For reference, I'm a teenage girl with mild acne.Best of luck...

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 quickly at handling the redness, not overly-drying, seeing visible results in just a few hours!

Don’t get me wrong this stuff works! But use sparingly. Just a little bit too much, and it will irritate your skin. I don’t know why but every single time I think I can use this on a pimple , a day later that area of my face is red and swollen. I don’t know if I’m allergic to anything in it …I’m not allergic to anything that I know of. Or it’s just my skin? I don’t have sensitive skin as an issue when it comes to other facial products . I’m not rubbing it in my skin at all, just a little dot on a spot. Just beware.

Great product, nice small size for travel, used as treatment and prevention of acne. Good price for product amount.

I’ve been using this spot treatment for stubborn acne, and it works really well. The gel dries quickly and helps reduce redness and swelling without over-drying my skin. It’s strong but gentle enough for sensitive areas, and a small amount goes a long way. I’ve noticed that breakouts heal faster when I use it at the first sign of a blemish. Be careful because I WILL BLEACH clothes/towels, etc! I would say it does not get rid of pimples overnight, but definitely reduces overall redness and inflammation. Does take a couple days for a really big pimple. Smaller pimples, it does reduce/resolve much quicker. I def recommend using right away at the first sign of a pimple. Overall, this is a reliable, effective treatment for acne-prone skin. I’d recommend it to anyone dealing with stubborn spots.

With having to wear a face mask, haven breaking out very bad along my cheeks and jawline and under my chin into my neck. Within two days the breakouts have cleared and even the dark marks left from my scratching and damaging my skin is less visible. Using this now on break outs that appear all over my body.

هذي علبتي الثانية للمنتج..انا بشرتي مختلطة و الT zone دايم يزيت عندي خاصتا بعد كم ساعة و يصير فيه حبوب صغيره فيهم بسبب الزيت الزايد..لكن هذا المنتج ينشف الزيوت الزايدة بدون يزيل الزيوت النافعه و بدون يحسس البشره..احطه على جبهتي كلها و خشمي لكن باقي وجهي بس احطه عالحبوب مره بتشوفون فرق خلال اقل من ٥ ايام انصح فيه مره

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

جيد ومفعوله سريع

I applied it on breakouts twice daily, they disappear by two days, but still leave an after scar.I was mostly getting small spots, so I am nit sure how effective it would be on larger pimples,
