Details & care
What it is: An overnight spot treatment to effectively treat blemishes without drying skin.
Who it's for: Ideal for anyone with normal to oily skin types.
What it does: The acne treatment synthesizes 10% active sulfur and salicylic acid to reduce the severity of blemishes and help skin to heal. Balanced with camphor to calm skin while fighting impurities, the formula incorporates zinc oxide to help prevent signs of scarring.
Key ingredients:
- Active sulfur absorbs excess oil
- Zinc oxide helps reduce signs of scars
- camphor calms
- Salicylic acid exfoliates
How to use: Do not shake. After cleansing skin, apply white sulfur sediment with cotton swab directly onto blemish at bedtime as an overnight treatment. Limit to one application daily to avoid drying out skin.
Caution: For external, adult use only. Avoid contact with eyes. If skin irritation occurs, discontinue use and consult a doctor. Using acne medication in conjunction with this product may increase drying and irritation to the skin. Only one topical acne medication should be used at a time unless directed by a doctor.

subpar spot treatment
Unfortunately, this product does not work. After using for 1 week, my pimples, which usually come to a head and shrink and disappear with other products after 2 consecutive uses (Mario Badescu, Evologie, Origins), did not change in size. I had to switch back to my usual Evologie spot treatment and away they went. I sleep on my face often and this product did not flake off, so that's a plus. The smell is a bit pungent until it dries and caution when washing it off--it burns the eyes! I found a way around the eye burning by using a wet cloth to remove the spots and avoid the eye area instead of using my hands and water to rub the product off.

Absolute Must Have!
Has made a huge improvement on a cystic acne breakout in less than a week. Cystic acne sufferers know that outbreaks can take weeks to improve. The pain and redness were gone after 4-5 days. I still have a bump, but it's going away and can be covered easily with minimal product. Highly recommend!

Bye bye Pimples
This solution is perfect to put on any pimples. It dries them up and shrinks them. I usually take a
Q-tip and dot the areas that need help and sleep with it on my face. I have repurchased this many times and recommended it to many friends and they have all been happy.

Awesome spot treatment!
This product dries out and reduces the pimples fast. It does have a bit smell at first, but it's tolerable, and that goes away quickly.
