    2% Salicylic acid.

Clean & Clear Advantage Fast Clearing Spot Gel Rev

Pretty good I used to use alot as I had bad acne before I was put on roaccutane. I find it did work okay and it didnt smell bad. You could get in a kit with the other products at a discount price which is nice. The product wasnt too harsh for my skin and didnt hurt it i found it did help with the swelling and fade of pimple

Effective

This was quite effective in drying out the pimple and I would always wake up in the morning (after applying it the night before) with noticeable improvements. It is quite pricey though, for such a small tube so I would recommend using sparingly.

Tips: I found that the entire advantage pimple control kit was quite drying and not particularly suited for those who have normal or dry skin.

Clear Spot Gel

This product was good enough for me as i very rarely get pimples or blemishes but i probably wouldn't recommend it to anyone who has drastic skin problems. it takes quite a while for this to work and to be honest i didn't really notice much of a difference throughout the day and only really noticed it the next morning. however it does get rid of pimples quicker than they would go naturally so to be honest it worked for me

Tips: Apply it at night so it has time to work without you playing with it

Does more than what it says

I found that this product did work on my existing pimples to reduce size and appearance. However I did also find that if I was to get and of the gel on the skin around my pimple it would bring out more pimples in that area. to me this slightly annoying but can be minimized by careful use.

Tips: I prefer to use this at night as i can be assured it won't bring out any more pimple during the day.

Suuper Strong!

I bought this product when I had a major breakout right before a date night. I had 12 hours to get rid/disguise a terrible breakout and chose this gel due to the 'reduce pimples in 4 hours' claim.

I washed my hands and applied it straight on when I got home. The first thing I noticed was the strong tingling sensation I felt. It was uncomfortable and I felt the need to wash it off but persevered and left it on. This gel actually worked really well. It dried out the acne and by the time I was ready to head out, all the bumps/texture was gone and I was able to cover up the slight redness left over with foundation/concealer. It did however dry out the skin around the breakout. I feel like you may need to apply this gel precisely as it did agitate the surrounding skin a bit.

I wouldn't use this product on a daily/weekly basis due to how much it dried up my skin and how harsh it felt. This is a good emergency product and is handy to have around though.

Tips: Try not to apply too much gel (especially if you have sensitive skin) as this can be very drying/irritable.

Clean & Clear Advantage Fast Clearing Spot Gel

I saw this whole system and bought it to try it out. I don't have really bad acne but the occasional breakout means I still need to have a product that really works!

This worked for me for a while but it might be true that after a while your skin gets used to it and develops a certain tolerance to it. When I used it at first, it did help to reduce the size and redness of my pimples overnight!

One thing i didn't like about it was the packaging. I have to let it lie on its side but when you almost get to the end of the product, its really hard to get it out of the tube.

But for that price, it may still be worthwhile to try!

Not for me unfortunately

Whenever I have a deepset & stubborn pimple mum always says "go and put the gel on" meaning this product.

However, I am often reluctant because over the years this product has been repurchased in my household I haven't had consistent results in treating the acne I need to fix most. At first this product showed to be working but my skin must of grown a tolerance to it because it doesn't make much difference at all now.

The Advantage Spot Gel comes in a small tube, but a little really does go a long way. The small size means it's easy to take travelling but on the negative side the bottle often disperses more product than needed and means often my pimples have been over "gelled"

I would put this on before I went to bed, hoping that my lumps and bumps would be erased when I woke up, realistically this was doubtful anyway, but I didn't notice any improvements either. However, I did notice dry patches when using this product so I would ensure to use moisturiser prior to application and in the morning aswell. Also make sure to only apply the gel where it is needed! This will help avoid potential unessescary dry patches and irritation.

Speaking of irritation , I have sensitive skin and I would often feel a tingly or burning sensation when applying the gel onto broken skin/ popped pimples - I must admit it has brought tears to my eyes on occasion. So I wouldn't recommend this on freshly popped pimples.

I recommend that everyone tries this advantage gel out at least once, it seems to work well for other members of my family.. But unfortunately not for me!

Tips: Moisturise before application to prevent dry skin. Try to only squeeze out a tiny amount - a little goes a long way!

Average

I bought this product as a post-acne treatment for when I had a spot (big or small) I found that after a while, my skin became immune or used to the gel so became less effective. Maybe it didn't work so well for me because of my acne prone skin. Very easy to use and easy to apply. Very cost affective and accessable.

Wasn't impressed

This is something I've had for over a year, and used on and off. However, I'm not that thrilled with the results it gives, and I won't repurchase once I've run out.

I don't have major acne, but I do get the occasional deep pimple (the painful, cystic kind) due to hormones, etc (yay!). No matter what I do, they last for ages, are really painful, and nearly always leave a bit of redness in their wake. Hate 'em! Fortunately they're not a daily battle for me, but I do get them every now and again.

This gel treatment works well on normal breakouts in terms of drying them out and helping them to heal faster. However, I find that it usually leaves me with more redness than usual, which can take weeks or months to fade away on my skin.

In terms of the deep, cystic spots, I don't think that this does anything much for them. It definitely doesn't stop them from progressing, and again, it seems to emphasize redness.

On top of all of that, it is drying enough that I usually get some dry, flaky patches around any breakouts if I use it - and it's not fun to conceal that without it looking cakey and awful!

So, overall, not a fan. However, I still use it occasionally for a quick fix on normal breakouts if they're really bothering me. Wouldn't recommend to anyone looking for a really deep-action spot gel.

Tips: If you want to try and get rid of a cystic spot quicker than it normally heals by itself, try dabbing it with a bit of apple cider vinegar before you go to bed - that works way better in reducing the size/pain for me, and it's also a lot cheaper than this!

Clean & Clear

I get occasional break outs during my time of the month or whenever I'm stressed. Which is why an acne spot gel is a must have for me.

I tried this since my mum's friend would always use this. She'll atleast have one every 2 weeks since she uses it very often.

I tried it and I have used about 5 tubes of it and I have mixed feelings about it.

It smells alright, not too strong or anything. It has a gel like consistency, and I only use it during the night. I tried using it in the morning(adding it to my skin care routine before applying make up) and found that it went flaky and would peel off, as if you have rubbed a dried glue on your hand. It was pretty effective at first. I would notice the bumps would slowly get smaller. Which is why I reached the point of consuming 5 tubes of it.

But then I stopped since sometimes I really want to get rid of the acne really quick and I can't use it in the morning. I stopped using this and looked for a cream type ance spot treatment.
