A great blemish gel!

This was one of the star products of the Essano clear complexion range. It is a thicker gel than other blemish gels I've used in the past, but a little does go a long way.

This product has a really thin point at the end of the applicator which makes it easy to get just the right amount of product.

I really like the formula of this gel, some blemish gels are quiet drying but this is just perfect. I did find that it help reduce the inflammation and redness of my cystic acne, but it didn't make my skin feel tight and dry. I did also find that it helped reduce the appearance of the blemishes it was applied to. I definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a blemish gel

Works well

This product considerably reduced the blemishes on my face. It worked well and helped reduce redness. Continuous use made lots of my acne disappear.

Tips: Apply it at night and let it soak in until the morning.

Effective and easy to use

I absolutely love this product. It worked very well for my oily skin type and got rid of pimples very fast. Applied it at night and noticed a visible difference in the morning. It also contains natural ingredients which is great for the skin.

Especially great size for travelling and taking around in your bag. I will definitely be repurchasing!

Tips: Using at night was a lot more effective!

Good for acne prone skin.

Initial thought was super cute packaging and the sizing was decent.

I personally found that I didn't really use the product as much as others might o actually had a good skin month this month. But I did use it on one or 2 small imperfections and noticed they cleared up within like 24 hours of applying the gel. I did find it a little bit drying around the area but I just followed it up with moisturizer and it was all better.

I think this product would be perfect for people with acne prone skin as long as they follow it up with the moisturizer

Tips: Use moisturizer in conjuction with it.

Okay blemish gel

I like the packaging of the gel. It comes in a similar packaging to the other products. The scent is most tolerable of the range. It comes out in a clear gel and I usually apply it at night.

It's non-sticky and I feel that it helps to calm inflammation and makes my blemishes go away faster. I do like it and I would repurchase!

Great fast acting blemish gel

This is by far the most effective blemish gel I have ever used! Usually blemish gels don't really work all that well for me, but this one surprised me.

It doesn't have a scent (nothing that I can smell anyway), and when you put it on your pimples, it doesn't sting. That's something I appreciate because a lot of other blemish gels I have tried sting quite a bit.

I find that if I apply this gel to affected areas, the swelling goes down significantly overnight, and you can see a difference the next day.

You don't need to use much at all, and it spreads out quite well. I LOVE that this product, along with the rest of the range, is very natural and cruelty free. The fact that it meets my ethical standards and it works makes me very happy! I believe it's also very affordable which is amazing. I am so happy with this product, when it runs out I'll definitely be buying another tube.

Tips: Dab on a small amount to affected areas, making sure to use a different finger for each blemish, and try not to touch the actual applicator to prevent spreading of bacteria.

Bye Bye Blemishes

I don’t use a lot of blemish gels like these, so was really excited to give this a go! This has a similar colour scheme to the rest of the range, white and pink with a bit of silver. It has a little pointed tip that the product comes out of- it’s quite small which minimizes the amount that comes out, as only a small amount is needed! It smelt subtle and natural and herby. The texture is a gel and it applies really easily to the skin. It absorbs quickly and doesn’t feel sticky or leave any residue or anything after it’s been applied. I used this on all the odd pimples that popped up and found that it took about a day or two to reduce the redness and then another day or two after that to minimize the pimple. I thought that this was pretty good, being able to start clearing my pimples in about 3-4 days. It also didn’t dry out my skin and didn’t really cause any scarring or anything to be left behind which I really liked! It didn’t irritate or cause my sensitive skin to react at all which I really liked- I was worried it might cause some kind of reaction or redness, but it didn’t. I thought this was effective and not bad for $16! I would probably repurchase this.

Tips: Only a small amount is needed!

Pretty good

I'm not sure how good this would be against very acne prone skin as I don't get many blemishes anymore but it smells good. I like the tiny applicator nozzle, great design for targeting a small problem area. I haven't had a chance to really see it in action yet but I am positive that it will be good because the rest of the Clear Complexion range works great.

Tips: Apply a tiny bit to a zit and press it in gently with a clean finger.

Spots lose redness

Firstly, I was impressed by the small but easy to use bottle of 'Rapid Action Blemish Gel'. The shaped nozzle made getting the right amount of gel out simple. I thought it was quite cool to see the gel was clear, this meant that no white residue was left after drying/application. I did notice that my spots/pimples/under-the-skin-bumps were reduced in size and redness after using the Blemish Gel. Whatever the natural mixture of ingredients it's certainly quite potent as the smell indicates which may put some people off! After using the gel a couple of times on my angriest spots I noticed less scaring/scabbing/marking once the pimples were gone which was a really nice change. It was reassuring to have a product focussed specifically on the task of reducing redness and bacteria's which influence pimples!

Tips: Dab the gel gently into the skin surrounding the pimple/blemish to ensure coverage (can be hard to see where it's been applied as the gel is clear)

Rapid Pimple Action

I haven't used a pimple cream in ages so was very excited to give this a try. Usually when I get a pimple I apply tea tree oil for a few days until it dries out and goes away. However, a side effect of this is my skin around the blemish gets dry. With this blemish gel, dryness isn't an issue!

I was excited to see that this blemish gel had a high potency of willow bark which is a natural form of salicylic acid which I have read is one of the most effective treatments for blackheads. As I struggle particularly with blackheads, this blemish gel looked perfect for me. I have only been using it for a month so haven't seen a huge improvement yet, but so far I'm very optimistic that it'll help me manage them better.

The gel is clear, smooth and very easy to apply thinly which makes it great to use. Since starting this regime, I have had a few breakouts which are normal for me, but I've found that this blemish gel has reduced the size of my pimples, and seemed to make my small ones disappear almost overnight!

I was very happy with this product, and look forward to seeing what progress it will help me make with managing my blackheads!

Tips: As the gel is easy to apply thinly, don't use a lot! A little goes a long way!
