Double Strength Salicylic Acid Skin Cleansing Cream with Tea Tree Oil and Sulphur - Paraben and Cruelty Free - 50ML

I've been reading reviews in the lower star category just curious to their reasons. What I have found is that people have a fundamental misunderstanding of their skin and the product. 1. If you have acne it's not always because you have oily skin. Dry skin can still get acne breakouts due to hormones. A way to test your skin is to not use any products for 48 hours and look at your skin, if it's shiny and greasy everywhere you have oily skin, if it's dry tight and flaking you have dry skin and if you have both you have combination skin. 2. People are expecting this cream to work immediately or after a few days. That's not how skin works, it can take a month for your skincare product to take effect as the skin sheds only once a month. A breakout will still happen, that's not the products fault it's your hormones. Keep using it for a minimum of three months to see how your skin is changing. It's not about preventing s breakout actually look at your skin during a breakout, if you're getting less spots then it's working if the frequency and amount gets worse then it's not working for you. 3. People are thinking this is a moisturiser and it's not. It's an exfoliant which is designed to take off excess oils and get into the pores and kill bacteria, regardless of you are only or dry you NEED to moisturiser afterwards. If you don't you will be effectively making the skin produce more oils than it did before to combat the creams drying effect. If you use a moisturiser and maybe an oil like jojoba oil, you should be fine. 4. This is a max strength cream, there is a weaker one available if you don't have a lot of break out. 5. This is NOT for sensitive skin, this will react to not sensitive skin and make it a bit irritated because it is killing all the bacteria on the face good and bad. If you have sensitive skin this will trigger it. You can try using the lower strength one but if that's no good then glycolic acid would be better to use. 6. People are using it too much. Again this comes down to people not understanding their skin type. If you're really oily and have very bad acne then twice a day is good for you. If you have breakouts only once a month or so then only use it twice a day during a breakout. After that once a day max is more then enough, and if you don't get breakouts that much then three times a week should be sufficient. 7. This product is good at exfoliating but it's still a cream, and you need to use a micro exfoliant to basically get the dead skin and excess product off, this needs to be done at least once a week but no more than twice a week for dry and normal skin and maybe three times a week for oily skin. And finally you don't need to use this cream everywhere. You can use it on the areas toy break out on and maybe do the other areas once or twice a week or something. I hope this helps people understand this product a bit better.

Working a treat on my spots and scars, easy to apply texture is like a normal cream,

It works, I can promise you that. Verified and all of that taff. I used a small amount three times a day on an otherwise 20 year old nose that had been subjected to vast advanced elite premium grade amounts of oil and other facial debris, while spending my youth eating crisps, pizza and other fatty foods for maximum trash skin appearance, etc. After two weeks the horrible blackheads have reduced significantly - there's none on my T-Zone above my eyes anymore and none on the left and right sides of my nose, the cheeks below my eyes etc, all gone. My nose itself is still an eyesore at point blank range, but it has been very reduced in obvious blackheadedness, etc. Good stuff, very effective, I'm sure in another couple of months my blackheads will be nothing but a memory. However, there is one caveat. It smells like burned plastic / recently lit matches. There's no getting around it. It's an awful smell that due to the fact you're applying it directly onto your nose in most cases, will be ever present and not something you can truly get used to. Worst still, is the fact other people can smell it too. Part of my routine is applying some after my gym session, and after I leave the locker room I always visit reception, and recently the woman behind the desk and the people she was dealing with both remarked they could smell something burning, and then looked around and asked other people if they could, etc. I'm 100% sure the smell of this cream is the reason for that reaction, luckily they didn't pay me much mind. That's quite a smelly cream! If you live alone you might get away with using it before bed, or if you have periods during the day you can use it without needing to be near anyone for a few hours, it's great! Otherwise, expect a lot of funny comments by people nearby. I suppose it's possible I got a defective cream that isn't meant to smell like burnt plastic / used matches - this is my first time using the cream, after all. Oh well, it works and that's all I really care about anyway.

I purchased this cream after reading many positive reviews, and seeing before and after photos. I suffer from adult acne and my skin scars easily (even when I don't touch the pimples). I also have combination skin and some parts get really oily. When using the product for a week at night everyday, it did work, reducing the redness of my acne and clearing up some of the scarring along my chin and jawline. However, I think my skin is super sensitive and I found the cream was too strong, which resulted in it drying my chin area completely and triggering my eczema. I had to stop using the product for 2 weeks to clear up my eczema, which is a shame because the product kind of worked for me. In the near future, I will be using it once in a while for spot treatments and hopefully that won't trigger any dryness.

I don’t see an expiration date on this product which would have been helpful. Now not sure if it’s an expired product.

j'étais envahi par des boutons d'acné depuis 6 mois et j ai essayé 20 crème différents rien à faire; cela fait 4emejour d'utilisation déjà mes taches d'acné presque noir commence à disparaître et je mets bcp sur mes bouton ;la texture lisse et il y a une légère odeur qui dérange pas;après il seche; elle est a la fois exfoliant mais je frotte pas pour que la crème reagisse; je frotte tous les 2 jours et la peau éclaircisse; bonne produit; je pense quand je finirais le pot les boutons enfin sera déjà parti;

Ich habe mir diese Creme bestellt, da ich immer und immer wieder Mitesser habe, die nicht weggehen. Die Creme habe ich morgens und abends und manchmal mittags aufgetragen. Der Geruch ist Joa ok.. Wer eine gut riechende Creme erwartet ist hier fehl am Platz. Aber sie soll ja helfen und nicht duften... Das Cremen an sich ist ok, sie zieht sehr schnell ein und hinterlässt keinen film. Jedoch habe ich die Creme nun schon fast aufgebraucht und die Mitesser sind immer noch da. JEDOCH! Ich leide an einer sonnenallergie, ich bekomme am decolte und im Gesicht oft Pusteln, die jucken wie verrückt. Seit ich diese Creme nutze, habe ich zwar auch vereinzelt Pusteln, jedoch ohne jucken... Was für mich ein klares "wieder kaufen" bedeutet.

Effectief tegen puistjes

N'apporte rien de bon, à part une peau très grasse
