Amazon Basics Advanced Acne Spot Treatment with 2% Salicylic Acid Medication, Blemish Treatment, 0.75 Fluid Ounces, 1-Pack

My child had blackheads appear suddenly on her nose, so I had to research a child-safe salicylic acid medication. The Amazon Basics one came up, so decided to give it a go. Three days later we were able to remove the blackheads from her nose. Safe for kids and sensitive skin, great value, and does not irritate or leave any redness.

I am on second one. I think my blemishes are maintaining. Acne spot gone. still working on my blemishes, not so much.

This spot treatment has become my absolute go-to for handling those unexpected, stubborn breakouts. The fast-acting formula powered by a potent 2% salicylic acid works wonders at deep-cleaning pores and flattening blemishes overnight without leaving my skin feeling stripped or flaky.

… for the Clean & Clear Advantage Acne Spot Treatment (also 0.75fl oz) that I was previously using for the last several years before they changed the packaging and formula. I figured I would give this one a try, and honestly, I like it better. Very little goes a long way, it is very gentle on the skin, and it dries down nicely without feeling tight or too dry. I can actually put this one under makeup for spot treatment and not get that weird patchy look like C&C’s would do. It also works well, as I can put this on a place that I notice early on that is starting to form, and the next day it’s gone or has dramatically reduced in size. I was also using a lot of the little pimple patch stickers before, but have gone back to just using this at night with better results in conjunction with Vanicream Gentle Facial Cleanser and CeraVe PM Facial Moisturizing Lotion Ultra. I’ll do Differin/Adapalene gel 2-3x a week on nights I’m not using this blemish spot treatment, and my skin looks the nicest it has been in a long time (which says a lot as I am currently going through perimenopause, so my hormones have been out of whack lol). Simpler often is better. As long as Amazon keeps the formula for this one just as it is now, I’ll continue to keep it in rotation for my skincare must haves.

Great for acne and for sensitive skin works fast on getting rid of stubborn acne

It is ok. I think Clean & Clear with Benzoyl Peroxide is more effective for spot treatment. Probably wouldn't order again. I just lathered my face in it, in hopes it will help! Would be good for sensitive skin, since it isn't very strong.

I've used salicylic acid for blemishes for years. It's one of the best remedies, I've found. It even works well for cystic acne. It helps lessen the swelling. If I use it in conjunction with my facial moisturizer, I don't have issues with dry and flaky skin. You also don't need to use a lot - a little goes a long way.

No complaints about this acne treatment. It's a 2% salicylic acid formulation, the same as brand name versions, but at a much nicer price. It is a clear gel, so it's invisible once applied. It has a medium thick consistency that's thick enough so that it's not at all runny, but thin enough so it spreads quickly and easily. Works as it should, and is a good value (especially on a price dip). 5 stars
