    This was a complete waste of money for me. It didn't do a thing for my acne and it irritated my skin badly. I don't know why I keep buying MB products. They just don't work.

    This may be my new HG zit solution. When I feel one coming up I just dab this on a few times a day and it's either gone soon or it at least heals much better. I get NO peeling or flaking from...

    Don't let the pungent alcohol scent frighten you off from purchasing this lotion. It is highly absorbent; when I apply it to a cluster of bumps or to a cystic pimple, the swelling reduces...

    This isn't a miracle product but it does seem to make cystic acne heal faster over time. I will use up my bottle and see how I feel about it then.

    Works very well for clearing and preventing cystic acne. Unfortunately, clearing cystic acne usually starts with the development of any blemishes you may have brewing. I kept using it, and I like...

    This stuff is a MIRACLE..........IF you use it on the right ones. You must use it on ONLY the cystic, deep, painful, knot-like zits as quickly as you realize it's developing. It's been pretty...
