I struggle a lot with annoying one off pimples. The type that pop up in certain areas on my face one at a time and go bright red for days. Before purchasing this product, I had been using the old 'use perfume to dry out your pimples method' but had found that it really wasn't good for my skin. I found this in store for $5 and thought it would be worth a shot. When you first open the lid and take a whiff, the smell isn't too great, but with it containing a lot of pimple fighting chemicals you can't really help that. The product has an easy to use roll on top so you don't need to carry around q-tips to apply it. It's a nice compact size, great for shoving your bag on the go. I find that after a couple of hours I start to see my pimple sizes reducing and a lot of redness goes away.

Tips: Apply once a couple of hours before applying make-up and once before bed after taking off your make-up :)
I initially purchased this months ago, tried it once and didn't see a result so threw it in the back of a draw never to be used again! Then I completely forgot about it until rediscovering it the other day following a massive skin break-out, and decided to give it a second chance.
The formula itself is a clear liquid with quite a strong smell which could be the camphor. Although it looks pretty unimpressive, I find the packaging is really functional and a fantastic, compact size which is perfect for taking away. The roller-ball style tube is perfect for a no-fuss application, and the clear plastic allows you to see exactly how much product is left. I applied this at night after cleansing and toning as a spot treatment to individual spots, left it to try and followed up with moisturiser.
The next morning I was amazed at the visible reduction in the size and redness of the pimples. After a couple of days they had cleared. This is a great result, especially with such an affordable price tag and I'll be repurchasing it.
Tips: Make sure after you apply you leave it to dry before applying anything else to your skin.
Omg so this morning I woke up with 5 really big, red pimples that came out of nowhere, all on one cheek. Luckily my Elf order had arrived on Monday so I got to put it to use!
I washed my face, used a toner, and applied the zip zapper on, followed by a primer and no makeup. It is 9pm now, and by goly THEY ARE GONE!! Gone I tell you. I am so amazed!
I have used 3 different spot trick zapper things and none of them have ever worked like this.
It has no smell, is clear and doesn't create a sticky film substance across the pimple and dries within seconds.
It's very small perfect for a makeup purse or on the go in your handbag. It has a nice, sleek and clear design so you can see when it is running out, and also clear on the skin.
The only thing I worry about is that it is a roller ball applicator, which is convenient yes, but germs are transferring onto the roller ball, which you later roll onto another pimple, transferring all that bacteria.
I bought this after reading the reviews on here and i can honestly say WOW! I havent had a bad zit since buying this beautiful product. It smells delicious, like eucalyptus. It completely takes away the redness and reduces the size of my pimples overnight. I put it on the minute i think that a pimple is coming up and it just is magic and takes it away instantly. I cant even explain how amazing this product is. I loved how i could actually put it on a pimple during the day as it dried clear and you couldn't tell i had pimple cream on. The roller ball on the end made application VERY simple, easy and quick. SUPER cheap and so worth the $5! It also lasts a very long time as you only need to use a tiny bit at a time.
