This product is awesome, but it's been all but discontinued. Earth therapeutics says "unavailable for a long term", almost a year now!
Solution: buy any drugstore 5% benzoyl peroxide acne treatment and a bottle of pure tea tree oil with an eye dropper...I squeeze a pea sized amt of 5% BP into my palm and add 2-3 drops of tea tree oil, mix with a finger and apply. Works as good as the clari-t serum!!.... So don't bother buying this serum.

This stuff isamazing!!! I apply it all over my face at night and in the morning my blemishes have either dried out or gotten a lot better :D just make sure that u don't use too much on areas where you don't need it because it candry out your skin. The only downside to this product is that I can only buy it online, but I'll still repurchase since it pretty frikin amazing! :p

Man, I wanted to like this so much. The reviews on here for this product are amazing. I ordered it from online, eagerly awaited its arrival, and put it on that night. I think one other person on here had the same reaction that I had... IT BURNS! I thought it was just an initial tingle, but it flat-out began to sting over the course of the 15 minutes after I applied it. I went in to look at the area that was stinging so badly, and it was all red. I immediately washed it off, but the stinging persisted. It still stung a little bit the next morning and into the afternoon! I've never had something like that happen before! I have used BP and tea tree oil before, so it must be some other ingredient (or the combination) that proved too harsh for my skin. What a disappointment, as so many others hail this as their savior! If you have sensitive skin, maybe try a test spot on your arm or something before putting it on your face, just in case!

this product did a great job when i first bought it. i would put it on my blemishes at night and in the morning i would see a significant difference in the size of my pimples. it's not drying and smells nice. it was my HG product for a couple months, and i was excited that i finally found a treatment that i actually saw some improvement with. but for some reason, after a few months of using it, it seemed to stop working, and lost some of its "magic". don't know what happened, but now it doesn't work anymore! :(

This stuff is great! I have used many acne products over the years, including accutane. My accutane therapy was over 2 years ago and I had started to experience persistant breakouts again over the last few months. I've been using the Arbonne Re9 line, which I like for its anti-aging qualities, but felt like I needed to add in an acne-specific product again. This serum is great! It provided almost overnight results and my skin has cleared up in a matter of days. I've been using it at night only, then my Re9 day/night serum only in the am now. It does sting a little when you first apply, but nothing I can't handle for the sake of a clear complexion! I wish it came in a bigger tube, and I wish I could buy it in stores. Not sure how this serum will hold up in the long-term (some reviewers said it stopped working for them after a few months), but for now, this stuff is the best!
9/10---This product is "out of stock for a long term". I'm lost without this. Have been subbing DDF benzoyl peroxide 5% (also has tea tree), but its not quite same and much more expensive.

I bought this at TJ Maxx for four dollars randomly when i ran into it...it contains antibacterial tea tree oil, five percent BP, and even some glycolic acid! im using it on one part of my face and its helping clear it up...it works WAYYY better than any BP product ive tried and doesn't overdry my skin, no irritation/flakiness, and doesn't make it redder.....LOVE this stuff and will repurchase when im out! btw, this is really not serum like..its more of a cream, which i like better..

So I bought this like a year ago and I stupidly threw it in a drawer with a bunch of other "non-used" skincare items. I stumbled upon its reviews again (which was initially the reason I purchased it) and decided to give it a go.

All I can say is wow, what was I thinking? This stuff is truly amazing. I am 40 and have had a hell of a time controlling some pretty severe jawline and neck breakouts. I've been using this every morning for about 2 weeks, in conjunction with my moisturizer. My blackheads, whiteheads and nasty pimples have all disappeared and my skin tone hasn't looked better in months. I will repurchase this again and again and again!

I first bought these about a year ago. I was getting breakouts along my jawline and cheeks that I never use to have. Within 2 weeks my skin was almost perfectly clear. My tone evened and soften and my blemishes were way way way down. I would wash my face, put some of the serum on and then my regular face lotion. It lasted me forever too. The only reason I didn't give this a 5 lippies is cause about a year later it just stopped working. So I gave it up but I haven't found anything that works as good and keeps working.

This stuff was relatively gentle for 5% BP, but I don't feel like it made much more of a difference than my 2.5% I'd been using previously. Just stung a little more which made me more reluctant to moisturize over it, etc. The Earth Therapeutics website actually had some of the best pricing and they shipped with a bunch of free goodies like a massage tool, foot repair cream, and some oil blotting sheets. Was a good BP cream, but considering it did the same job my 2.5 did for more $$, not worth it. Liked that it had tea tree oil in it, but that's not anything I can't apply separately on my own. I wanted to like this stuff, and I'll continue to use it until I run out, but probably won't be repurchasing.

I bought this to use on the blackheads on my nose as it has benzoyl peroxide which works great for me. I used 10% benzoyl peroxide in the past, it works pretty well but dries my nose. I decided to try this as it contains 5% benzoyl peroxide.

I've tried it on my pimples, but I think it works better on the blackheads than on the pimples. It worked pretty well on my blackheads initially, but it seems to lose its effect on me after a while. Maybe I used it too often, i don't know.

I looooove this product! I think I have pretty good skin. I only break out every once in a while (mostly before a certain time of the month) and I have some black & whiteheads. I apply this right when I see a zit coming on and it succeeds in getting rid of it. It also helps even when pimples are fully formed. I like the smell, it's refreshing. It won't work for everyone but I think that it's a great, natural product and a good value for the price. A little goes a long way. I've already ordered two before they go on backorder again,LOL.

I am still on the fence about this product, but I wanted to give some helpful hints to others who might have given up on this. I have given up several times because of dryness and irritation, but I realized that putting this on at night, then patting on a light, NON-COMEDOGENIC (this is key) moisturizer makes a HUGE difference. I will update after I have used this continuously for at least a few more weeks. Please keep in mind that any drastic change in skincare routines will cause breakouts, you just need to gauge whether it is the stuff coming to the surface or you are having a negative reaction. Skin cells turn over about every 3 to 6 weeks so you need to give treatments time. Nothing is a miracle cure. This cream when used with moistuizer, however, did show overnight reduction in redness and size of my breakouts. I currently have blackheads and whiteheads... I will update soon.

This, IMHO, is just a glorified BP product. I thought that the good reviews here and the fact that it contains salicylic acid and glycolic acid would make it a more effective BP product, but all it did was irritate and dry up my skin after 3 weeks of use. My zits were still alive but buried under red and crusty skin. (My mom also told me that my skin looks rougher after I started using this.) And what's the deal with putting organic tea tree if you're putting in BP anyway?
Edit - Bumping it up to 4. OK, so it doesn't work if I put it on my entire face, but when dotted inflamed zits after I apply Diacneal at night, it helps reduce swelling. I know BP is getting a bad rap these days because it produces free redicals in your skin, but when dotted on zits they kill bacteria better than anything I've tried. I like how tea tree smells so it's not an issue with me. I plan to use this only until my inflamed zits go away.

I have sensitive skin with moderate adult acne and tried Clari-T serum based on reviews here.This 5% benzoyl peroxide product really does work much more effectively than any other benzoyl peroxide lotion I have ever tried (including Clinique's more expensive 2.5% clearing moisturizer). As an added bonus it does not dry my skin out as much as other bp lotions when used every night, and has not bleached my clothes/linnen.
I still need to use consistently or the acne returns, so I hope it will be back in stock soon!
Beware that some people are allergic to Tea tree oil and/or rosemary leaf extract, so try on small area first.

Not sure why this has worked for everyone but me. This stung like the dickens when I put it on. The tea tree scent is kind of unpleasant, but tolerable. Made me break out worse, actually, and my breakouts improved once I stopped using this. Strange, because usually I have good results from both tea tree oil and BP. I do like the squeeze tube, it's very hygenic and helps control the application amount.

Ok, I ordered this in December and have used it morning and night every day since. I wanted to see how it worked before reviewing it. I LOVE it. I have had bad skin since I was a teenager - a few decades ago. Nothing I have used (from drugstore to high-end) has made my face look this good. Yesterday I realized it was time to reorder, so I went to Earth Therapeutics but alas couldn't find it on the site. I sent them an email and also called about it but being Saturday they were closed. So I spent the day searching the web for it - but everywhere I checked they were out of it. I finally found one site that had it still listed in stock but it was $15 - also came with an extraction tool. I didn't want to pay that much but I ordered it. A couple of hours later I received an email from them that they no longer had any - that Earth Therapeutics had DISCONTINUED it. I am just heartbroken. I am still waiting to hear back from ET and will update this with their reasoning. So if anyone knows how to get their hands on any - please advise.
UPDATE: I heard back from ET. Here is what they said - Unfortunately the
Clari-T Acne Serum is currently on back order. We should be receiving more
into stock soon. As soon as it does become available it will be available
for purchase on our web site www.earththerapeutics.com. -- Hopefully they will get some asap!

Thank you MUA!!!! Hands down this is the best acne treatment ever. It must be the tea tree oil, because I've tried other things with benzoyl peroxide with no results and dry skin. I use ceptaphil mixed with asprin and then this magic stuff, followed by ceptaphil lotion and I have clear skin. You can order it off earththerapeutics.com and get free oil blotting paper and shipping over $20, too. By the way, does anyone know if they are out-of-stock of this stuff, because I just tried ordering it and it's not on the site!????? I don't know what I would do without this.

This product gave me perfect skin for a few months, and then stopped working and I'm back to square one. :[ If you use it frequently all over your face, be prepared to moisturize a LOT if you have combo/dry skin. This product would, without a doubt, be a HG for me if it kept working forever.

Oooooohhhhhhhhhh, thank you thank you THANK YOU MUA!!! I'll be 25 in a few months and I've been dealing with acne since I was 13. I have never, EVER had a face as clear as I do now, and I've only had this product for about 5 days now. I'm sensitive to benzoyl peroxide (in 7th grade, after using a zit cream with bp in it on my cheeks, I broke out into a rash which had me and my mother at the doctor's with the doctor wanting to test me for lupus...ay ay ay...but I digress) but this really was no bother. It does turn my skin little red when I apply it at night, and when I shower the next day, something about the bp and hot water makes red patches appear, but by the time I've applied my makeup, the red's gone and I look better than I ever have. I only pray that it doesn't stop working for me like it has for other reviewers. I'll update down the line if there are any changes, but so far, this has changed my skin like I thought nothing ever could.
