I was very skeptical to try this product especially after reading the reviews. I have suffered from normal acne my whole life and have been on accutane. This stuff works! Yes, it is greasy, but if you put it on at night and pair it with an oil free face wash/ moisturizer you will be fine. It cleared up all the acne around my chin within days. It hasn't done much for the black heads on my nose, but...
Used for 5 weeks for rosacea acne. Very greasy, must leave on at least 1 hour before washing off, so wait to apply sunscreen, makeup. Who has time for that? Very inconvenient to use. Saw no improvement whatsoever. Was switched to a different medication, time will tell if it is effective.

Great from a medical aspect and also strictly going off results. Unfortunately it's basically unusable. DISGUSTING. I can't emphasize this enough. Prepare to stain literally anything your head touches or if you touch you face and then touch anything else. Def not usable if you have acne anywhere other than the front of your face, like if you want to wear it under your clothing for back or even just your neck. YELLOW terrible yellow, your hands seem radiated after applying it. Stains any hair it touches so if you have acne in your hairline it's useless to be worn during the day. Honestly I'm not sure how this medicine made it to market. So confused. And when I say it stains, I don't mean it bleaches like benzoyl peroxide, I mean it's like literally coloring on things with a highlighter. Read More Read Less

Ok, 2nd review of this product.....I like it, probably did a review a little early...have had no large pimples after being on it a month...vs one plus a week (large ones) get a few more blackheads than I'd like, but I'd recommend

Its yellow. Why would you make it yellow? Even if it does suppress your acne, now it looks like you have jaundice or colored yourself with a highlighter. Stupid choice of color.

I was prescribed this medicine to be used along with my EpiDuo, which is benzoyl peroxide. DO NOT MIX THEM!!! My doctor told me to use both at night, and I woke up to henna-colored stains all over my face, which I had to scrape off using my nails. They never fully came off; I have stains due to this!!! Also, it is a very oily, yellow medication that stains everything it touches and instead of reducing acne, it promotes it.

Easy to use and seems to work so far. Can't complain because any improvement is a big deal for me.

The medicine is a foam topical and my local dermatologist prescribed it. It made my skin more oily and it made me break out even more my acne for significantly worse. Also the color of the medicine is dark yellow so if you get it on any clothing it stains and doesnâ??t come out. My issue with this topical is it didnâ??t work to help treat it just made it worse also it made me feel disgusting and got everywhere.
