    I've been using this since July of '06 and really love it. When I hit my 40's, I started getting some really nasty cystic acne - large bumps that took 3-4 months to disappear and left a red mark. ...

    Between this, honey and asprin, my face is amazing. 5 months ago I started breaking out horribly, due to a hormonal change. Despite my efforts, my face was inflamed with cystic acne some of which...

    Diacneal did a good job on clearing up spots although it had absolutely no effect on blackheads. I went through a few tubes of it before it stopped having an effect. My skin regressed right back to...

    I've had the same tube twice as long as I expected to so that makes the price not as bad. I can see on my face it really helps the cell turnover rate. I almost never break out anymore and when a...

    A great acne treatment product. It leaves skin blemish free and glowing. What I love the most about it is that the anti-aging ingredient (retinaldehyde C.T.) used in most of Avène's products is...

    I used Diacneal for about 3 months and it did help my skin a lot. My skin was more clear, even and smooth and the best part: no more cysts! But it didn't help at all with clogged pores, I actually...
