I purchased this product online from the UK LUSH website (prices are cheaper compared to the US website) and was dissapointed. I recently stopped using this after a few weeks because it simply did not work for my facial acne.
I dabbed this product on my problem areas after I cleansed and toned in the morning and afternoon, and I did not see any improvement.
Although it doesn't help clear up my acne on my face, it did help a pimple I got on my back. I put it on my back before I went to bed and when I woke up I could tell that the pimple was not as hard and decreased in size.
For my facial acne, I now use Clean & Clear Persa-Gel 10, and after using it for two days I have already seen and improvement in my acne! Just in time for school orientation :) continued >>
Ive been using this for about 2-3 months now and I love it. It dries out my acne really fast but it doesn't dry out my skin at the same time. It also does a good job at preventing acne. I usually get acne right underneath my cheekbone on the left side. I just dab the gel on and I'm good to go. Great packaging. I love how it has a pump. It good for the price too and a little goes a long way. I will repurchase this when its gone.
How to: Pump onto the back of your hand (a little goes a very long way) and gently dab onto the areas with acne. I try not to rub it in. Just dab and wait for about 5 to 10 minutes before applying toner or moisturizer.
Heard amazing ratings on YT...dreamed of buying it and when i made a special trip to the store (4 hours from home) and bought it, i was so excited to get home to use it.
Used it that night...next morning...6 days now and have yet to see results :(
No less oil, no less breakouts...seems to be more redness :( :(
I'm still going to continue to use it, with hopes...high hopes.
Wouldn't buy it again though.
Overall I really like this!
It's great for spot treatment (especially overnight).
If I have a new pimple, I'll put a tiny bit on the spot at night and the next day it'll be either gone or smaller.
The product feels like gel and comes in a little pump bottle. I like the packaging, it's very travel-friendly and easy to use.
Price is ok, not too expensive (roughly $10)...quite affordable imo.
I would recommend this. You'll definitely see a difference!
i always had few spots, blackheads ,pimples on my cheeks i nvr imagined myself without those spots evn in my dream coz nothin really worked on my spots they always used to comeback and go but this one pdt is a life saver.........after so many years i hv clear and spotless skin just bcoz of this amazing pdt . initialy it made no diff on my spots but when i paired it with dreamwash (i use dreamwash as face wash ) i actualy strated to see diffrnce n this combination works wonder on my skin ..i use this as a spot treatmnt and also under moistrizer n i just love it pls lush dont evr stop making this pdt
Generally speaking, I like this product.
It's part of my nightly routine, and I found when I first started using this product it really cleaned my skin and it seemed quite clear. However, I was starting to think it was the regime I was using and the combination of the products not just Grease Lightning and I was right. I tried for a while just using it as a spot treatment and it worked but not as much as it did during the routine.
With that said here are a few things I noticed :
1)It can be quite drying and pore tightening
2)I had a pimple on my collar bone and it worked as a spot treatment so using it in other places besides the face works as well.
3)works better on under the surface pimples.
4)packaging controls usage and looks like it will last a while!

I don't think this will make acne go away completely, and I don't think it's the most effective spot treatment. However, if you're looking to whick away any oil at the end of the day, this is a good treatment. I think it also works to tighten pores.
I have noticed that this product has been really effective for my back acne more so than any breakouts on my face. It doesn't stain or bleach any fabrics and smells like fresh lavender. The pump on the bottle is not the greatest as it doesn't always decide to work but I would still buy this again.
Great product. I find it does help speed up pimple healing time, and it doesn't bleach my pillowcase like benzol peroxide or Proactiv will.
The scent is really relaxing and calming (and kind of helps my migraines!)
I do wish it had better packaging as it is difficult to get just a tiny bit out, but I will definitely be purchasing this again.

I'm still unsure about this. The thing is, I couldn't really use it as a spot treatment, as the pump is lousy at giving a small enough dose! It's sprays a large amount all over the place, so I've ended up using it as a moisturizer for my entire face, just that it doesn't really moisturize well enough for that. It is mild and all, but my skin gets too dry. Also I'm just not sure how much of an effect it really had on my acne. I really want it to work, and it should considering the awesome ingredients and reviews, but I'm not convinced of its effects after using a whole bottle. Perhaps if they give it a better pump or another packaging all together, I'll give it another try, but until then it's just too expensive for a product that doesn't really do any wonders on me and runs out way too quickly because of the lousy dispenser.
