    I also bought the the 1oz size for $7.99. Retail price is $45, but that's for a 2oz size. That's still about $30 cheaper then retail. I went back and found another one because I like this one so...

    I only paid $7.99 for the 1oz bottles of this at marshalls. So I would never pay $45 retail. It's not old bottles either, the serum is liquid and smells fresh, but I don't mean scented. I have had...

    This works super-fast on me. Outperformed the much-pricier Kinerase skin clearing serum, and flat-out shamed the MD Skincare Correct & Perfect Spot Treatment. Flattened most of my pimples overnight...

    Worked at clearing up my forehead for about a week, then it stopped working. It dried out my skin AND my skin broke out! Irritating ingredients+unnecessary preservatives=PTR

    This worked brilliantly at first, but towards 1/2 way through it stopped working so well at preventing blemishes. I gather it's because my skin begins to tolerate it and I probably need something...

    I like this product very much. I use it on my nose and breakout prone areas. I have large pores and this does a decent job of cleaning them - though they'll always clog back up! I think it is a...
