    Although it doesn't clear up pimples overnight as it claims, this is still a very effective treatment for pimples. The smaller whiteheads that I had disappeared in two to three days, and the...

    Ladies, save yourself some money and go buy the Queen Helene mint mask or the neem mask from Bath and Body. both of those do what this overly priced drying potion does, but only alot better. Sony...

    Ok. Show of hands. Who here thinks this is just Liquid Paper with some fragrance added? Odd stuff. Does it work? Not really. Then again, maybe it's just me being salty at how bad my skin has...

    This stuff works well on small pimples but the bottle dries out very easily no matter how careful you are to close tightly. I agree with a trick another reviewer gave - add a few drops of purified...

    Not worth it. Dries zits a little, but for the money I bet I could find something that works better. Sonya is a b- and a hard sell with her products. The Better Business Bureau report the other...

    This product works really well for me. I just dot the problem areas at night and by morning the pimples dry out almost completely. I only wish they would have it in a tinted color.

    I hate Sonya Dakar! She's a con artist and all hype. Not impressed at all with this product. The sales person swore by this for drying a zit. " All the celebrities use it...blah, blah, blah."...

    This product seemed to be okay when I first got it. My zits did not disappear, but the potion seemed to keep breakouts under control, and if I used it early enough, could head off a zit. Even...

    This is by no means worth the price. The most I would ever pay for this product is maybe $10. Actually, I don't even know if I'd pay that because it didn't do much. It's not completely useless, but...

    A good emergency solution for those who live alone cuz the striking WHITE colour DOES SHOW on your skin vividly. The applier is very hard to use--have to put on my finger first before dotting it on...

    This product is expensive. For the most part, it seemed to work okay. Whenever I used it, the next morning, the zits really seemed to have gone down and be less red. However, the stuff dries out...
