I really had hoped this product would be the HG for my acne problems, but in my case it made my skin worse. As in, "I finally had to go to the dermatologist" worse.
Really, the experience was just weird for me. I wasn't using benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid products before using the Lerosett mask, just organic cleansers and toners. My skin would keep purging and purging, week after week. Just as I thought my face was starting to clear--BOOM--another purge! The mask wasn't terribly effective as a spot treatment, either. After two months of consistently using the product per instructions, I gave up.
However, I can't totally dismiss this mask because it seems to have helped so many others. Also, the free aloe-based moisturizer that came with the mask was really nice. And I have to give the Lerosett customer service folks their due; they're really helpful and professional, even when dealing with customer dissatisfaction with their products. A rarity these days!

Lerosett clay mask has cleared 99.9% of my acne in about 3 months! I was skeptical when I ordered it, but my skin had stopped responding to the traditional salicylic acid and benz. peroxide treatments, and I needed something to control my acne. Plus, I was looking for a natural product--the chemicals I had used for the past few years were ruining my skin. I "greened" my beauty routine a few years ago, and I hated the fact that I still had to use chemicals to treat my acne.
Lersosett has been a blessing! When I first used it, I had 2-3 days of a little dry skin. After that, my skin adjusted, and hasn't been dry at all. It used to be extremely oily, and now, with using Lerosett twice a day, it is not an oil slick by 1:00pm. I generally apply the mask to my T-zone, and when I do get the occasional pimple, it is almost always outside the area where I usually apply the mask. So that tells me the mask is doing it's job! I do not have ANY large, pus filled, painful pimples like I used to. Normally, my chin would get 2-3 new pimples per day, now, I have none!
Please, take the chance and buy this product! Give it time to work--at least two tubes worth. It is much better for your skin than chemical products! It will work for you if it worked for me. I have had acne since I was 11. I am now 35, and my face is finally clear. I have tried every topical product out there, and I will continue to use Lerosett as long as I have acne issues.

This is an amazing mask. If used as is suggested, it works. Once you have blemishes under control, use as a spot treatment. I am 54 years old and have tried numerous products and, finally, found something that really works. I finally love my skin! Thanks much. Lynn Angel

A little background on why I gave this a try. I had a crazzzy cystic acne breakout that lasted over a year a half!!! I'm now 30 and had struggled with acne in my teens, but nothing like this! Sooo, I was adamant about trying something natural after Murad (which I was on during this outbreak after having great skin for over 2 years on that) stopped working. I used Proactiv in my teens to early 20s and worked great but switched to Murad since considered more gentle. Anyways, I wanted to give an organic line a try. I gave the 3 and 4 piece Lerosett acne system a try and it just didn't stop the cysts from coming. It works great for oil control, a pretty good spot treatment in that it dries up the pimple, but in no way, shape or form does this stop anything in it's tracks. Trust me, I gave this 6 months to convince me (too long) because I really wanted this to work. With that said, I still use it as a mask to control the oil as it is a great clay mask and I absolutely love some of the other products - Lerosett Cleanser, AKTA AHA cream, Moisture Matte cream, AKTA Eye and Lip cream, Pore minmizer. As for the packaging, this is a tough one. It comes in a tube and I had a case where the tube turned the product into water! That sucked, but the customer service is amazing and they sent me a replacement item with no questions asked. I would recommend looking at their products as there are some great ones on there, but this is just not a acne cure on its own. It is great to add to your regimen, but thats about it. Hope this helps anyone out there struggling with adult acne.

I LOVE the clay mask! I started using it several years ago after my wax lady recommended it for my sensitive skin. It's the only thing I have been able to use to control my acne after trying so many other products that just made my skin irritated and red and just made my acne worse. I now use the whole line of their products and finally have my skin under control and healthy, when I use it consistently. Oh how I wish I would have found it earlier in my life! It is a little expensive for me but I signed up as a member and just order when they run their member only specials each season :) It's worth it!

This product has changed my life! I suffer from adult acne and was getting these huge lumps under the skin near my chin - I have honestly tried everything on the over the counter market and products prescribed by a dermatologist but nothing has ever come close to the success I have had with LEROSETT clay. I have been using the clay and unbelievable moisturizer for the last 4 weeks. This product manages to draw everything out of a blemish, completely stops it in its tracks, and prevents further blemishes from starting. Since I have been using the product I have not had any of the massive break-out problems near my chin. As for the moisturizer, having problem skin I have always been opposed to using various moisturisers for fear of starting a break-out, however I just cant get enough of the Gunilla moisturiser, my fiancé comments every night about how soft and lovely my skin is looking. I have reccomended this product to all of my friends.

Very effective product! I have pregnancy acne and Lerosett clay mask worked wonders. At first I used it twice a day for a week, just a little on each offending bump. Now I only have to use it once a week. It dries everything out very fast. And I love that it is organic. It's the only product that has worked for me.

I started using this product as an overall mask. I liked how my skin felt after using it. I also tried it as a spot treatment and it worked wonderers - especially on the deep rooted pimples. It pulls it out in a day or so and dries it up nicely. Great product if you want to try someting with out all the chemicals.

This is definitely my go to product for my face! Once a week I use the clay for a deep cleaning mask. It doesn't dry out my skin or feeling tight. Whenever feel a pimple coming on I dab a little on at night and when I wake up there is a dramatic change. My brothers always use the clay at night. My brother has acne prone skin and this product has done wonders!! This product and Gunilla of Sweden is amazing because it is all natural and organic. It moisturizes and deeply cleans!

This product is great. I am 42 years old and started having acne last year. Not only did I have acne, but severe acne all over my cheeks and lower part of my jaw. I would get rid of one pimple and 5 more would pop up.
I tried everything, Proactive, Burt Bees, Acne Free, and even spent over $200 at the dermatalogist buying their acne products, being told my problem was no big deal because it was hormones and receiving prescriptions for two different medicines. However, none of these problems worked. The prescription medicne was full of side effects and made my skin peel. Plus the doctor said I would not see any effects from the pills until 3 months! I thought that was ridiculous.
I found Lerosett after doing a search on the internet. Since it was all nautural, I decided to give this product a try.
It Worked!! My acne cleared up after 2weeks. I was amazed. I don't have the hard, pimples which constantly arrived on my face. I still use the products to wash my face everyday. The clay mask I only have to use every other day instead of every day like before. Plus, there are no side effects from these products.
I am very happy with Lerosett.

I have been using Lerosett and it has worked, it took a while but its worked, I cant believe people would think these reviews are fake, you can simply facebook the Dermatologists names as well as the user testimonies "on their site" and see they are real, thats a terrible claim to make that reviews are fake, when a little investigation will prove them real. They even give full names and city and state
I have had very bad acne. My face was red and covered with white heads. For over a year I have tried benzoyl peroxide products without any results.
My Mother started to use Gunila of Sweden products for her eye wrinkles and face.
I could visibly see her skin rejuvenated. So, I tried LEROSETT on my face. My skin immediately improved. I am applying facials mask daily and fallow with High Content Organic Moisturizer. My skin is almost clear and free of white heads. I feel like myself again.
I was very impressed how quickly and affectively this mask worked for me.I would highly recommended!

I have been battling moderate acne for over 10 years with little success. After reading about lerosett and the fact that its "all natural" I decided to give it a try. I am a very health conscious individual; I limit chemicals in my house and eat a mostly vegetarian diet with tons of fruits and veggies. I read the instructions on the website carefully and followed them religiously. After about 2 months I give up. My acne has not gone away, but instead has just shifted. Where I used to have lots of blemishes around my jaw and chin, they are mostly on my cheeks, neck and forehead. The worst part is that the quality of my skin has significantly diminished. My skin is raw and flaky around my nose, mouth and chin. Overall, my skin looks tired and unhappy.
Before someone says I must have been using the product incorrectly, here's the facts:
I used the 4-part system exclusively
I applied the mask 2-3 times a week and did spot treatments every night (the website says most failure comes from not using the mask enough, but if I increased use my skin got way too dry).
I also I was not "withdrawing" from benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid or any other typical acne "clearing" drug containing product.
I finally gave up on Lerosett last week and switched to Arcona. Almost instantly my skin is looking healthier and clearer. I will wait a month or so before I post anything about Arcona, but I wanted to share the experience I had with Lerosett.
I really, really wanted the claims on Gunilla's website to be true, but for me, it failed.

Ok firstly i was pretty skeptical about this product at first because i have tried many many acne treatments that didnt work and I got really tired of using harsh chemicals on my face... so later i googled organic acne products and lerosett showed up .I saw the free trial ... so i said to myself why not .. ? When i first received it , they came with a small aloe moisturizer. The moisturizer was fantastic ! Not only is it 100% organic. It made my skin a lot smoother. As for the tube of lerosett clay .. It has not dissapoint me yet ! It's only been 2 weeks and it has been clearing my acne and lowering my redness.. which is FANTASTIC! ill do another update after a month or so (: !
EDIT :
omg after a few weeks this made my skin WORSE than before D: ! I developed some redness around my cheeks ): and made my skin EVEN MORE SENSITIVE ! i think this was way too drying for me . too bad it didnt work out ...

This is an organic clay mask that is used for "problem skin". I purchased this during my pregnancy because my first trimester gifted me with hormonal breakouts on my chin. I would put this mask on any acne I had overnight and when I woke up in the morning, the zit(s) would be significantly smaller than it was the night before. I now use this once a week as a mask and it's great because my skin feels cleaner and is not left feeling excessively dry as other clay masks have in the past.

I have had really bad experiences with benzoyl peroxide before, I even used the new foam versions of it but no matter what I got my skin dried badly. So I was desperate to find something that was drug free but was also a real product not made in some garage somewhere. This product LEROSETT "i just searched organic acne treatment on the net" has been a god send, my sister and I are both using it and my skin is great, I haven't had any pustules for a month and even those difficult little white heads on my forehead went away, they call it milia and nothing has ever helped them before so I am very impressed. I initially got a free trial but I ended up ordering the system they have and I would recommend this product to everyone.....

I never write reviews, but I will for this. I am so happy I purchased this LEROSETT. I got the entire LEROSETT acne system, and it has helped greatly! I suffer from embarrassing cystic acne. I used the clay right away and saw immediate results, I'm amazed! The clay mask brought a very infected pimple to a head (and this pimple was there for about 13 days already), I did the dotting method for a few days 3 times a day and each day the pimple got smaller bringing the infection out. You can really feel the clay working and you can truly feel the infection being drawn out of your skin. There are few products I have used in my lifetime that really do what they say they can do, be priced right, and be natural, LEROSETT is the real thing. This is a no-brainier, Thank you LEROSETT.

i NEVER write a review for anything, ever.....but this mask has saved my skin! i've suffered from acne for almost 2 years now, and i've tried everything (high end, low end, in between, derm prescribed, natural, etc). i just received this mask today and applied it, and literally RIGHT AWAY my blemishes were reduced. i can't imagine what my skin will look like in a week, since it already improved in a day! and, it's all natural! it IS drying though, but just moisturize and you'll be fine. nothing is as drying as Benzoyl Peroxide anyway....i will update my review after i use this for a few days, but so far, AMAZING!

I did the free trial found on their website and had moderate expectations since most of the products I have used work for a bit but then tend to make my skin break out more.
But It has been about 2months that I have been using the clay mask and I can not believe how great it looks. My husband, mom and neighbor commented on my complexion with out me asking or hinting that I was using something new. I have been using it as a wash and only use a small amount of product not much.( That is why it has lasted this long) The moisturizer that comes with the free trial is great as well, making my skin soft and smooth but not greasy. I am very happy with this product because I have used so many products that ended up making my skin dry or even worse than when I started using the product. Just before my monthly period I got the usual breakout pimple, so I followed the directions and put a bit of the product on the actual pimple over night, in the morning the pimple was dried up completly.
One reviewer stated that this product burned her skin, I can not imagine how this product could do that since it is only a clay like substance and no harsh chemicals added into it. ( This is why I think it works so well on sensitive skin like I have)
I would defintely reccomend it, try the free trial there is no obligation and I do think those with sensitive skin types like mine will find a new favorite!

This was the only product that cleared up my blemishes...I found about it when I became pregnant while searching the internet. The only down side is that the tube it comes in makes it hard to come out when it nears the end. Also, they don't seem to sell it at any local US stores...I bought it through Amazon.com...but I don't mind much because it's such a great product and it's all natural!
