It's Guerlain anti-blemish.
It looks like concealer and actually it really can cover acne scars, and heels them at the same time.
My face is full of acne after taking diet pills. I stop taking medicine and begin to try different products for acne-skin. And finally I discover Guerlain!
Indeed, it's not easy to get this product. Every store is out of stock and my name is on a long, long waiting-list! I was hopeless, and at that time I tried tea tree oil as substitute. Anyway my skin was getting worse after applying the oil until the phone call from Guerlain!
I am not sure if it can be used at night because of it texture and multi-function. However, I applied it day and nigh. You can see how desperate I am during that time. And I just witnessed a miracle.

List of products I tried during that time:
Tea tree oil
PanOxy1 Acnegel 10
PanOxy1 Acnegel 5
Annasalbe Ace (Japan)
Neutrogena spot gel

Glad to know that you like this product. I had been using Guerlain Issima Camphrea Cream in the past for my adult acnes. It really does an amazing job to heal the blemishes within a few days!

When I use it in the daytime, it also conceals the blemishes well and looks natural under the makeup. Sometimes I apply it as an overnight treatment, blemishes usually go down in size without looking so red the next morning. I also love the fact that unlike some other acne treatments, it clears up the blemishes without making the skin dry and flaky.

Highly recommended!!!

I see it's supposed to help scarring (the Camphrea) have you found this moonstone or Emma? Sounds awesome. I'd feel less guilty about wearing makeup if I knew it was improving my skin. Surprised

Yes, it does help to fade away acne scars fast if I apply it daily. Actually I find it most effective to clear up blemishes and acne with overnight treatments!

May I ask where you bought the Camphrea? I looked in Shoppers Drugmart last week and I couldn't find it. I'll try the Bay next. I bought Dior Hydraction TM - but it just isn't cutting it. It's adding to my pimple problem instead and that's the last thing I need.

Thanks Moonstone! I was wondering, does this product work on cystic pimples? And does it sting upon application? I'm going through bad allergies and EXTREME sensitivity right now.. Thanks again!

I don't have any stinging sensations with this product, but I'm not really sure if it helps to alleviate cystic pimples. Confused

Since you have highly sensitivity skin, it's better for you could visit a Guerlain counter and ask them if the product is right for you!

Hi Moonstone, thanks again! I did end up visiting the Guerlain counter today, but it turns out the color of the product is far too dark for me Sad
Oh well, the search continues... Laughing
Thanks!

The SA told me it can be used morning and night. It was in the skincare section on the Guerlain counter. She told me she really liked it (a good vouch! as there were many brands). It was $44 where I looked but it was a pretty small tube. Did you guys find it was fairly gentle? I'm going to do a search to see what it's bases is. SA and BP have caused me problems in the past.

moonstone, have you bought anything else from strawberrynet? I find that their prices are very close to the retail prices, so what's the point? Embarassed


Does anyone have the ingredients of this Camphrea Cream?

Benzoyl peroxide is great to dab a dot on pimples before bed or if you're around the house. It helps them not get worse and to heal faster. Just make sure not to get it on healthy skin if you have problems with sensitive skin because it's very drying. I put a tiny tiny dot right on the pimple.

benzoyl peroxide does the job but according to the founder of Revive, it does age the skin!!

i hv been using an acne cream, and it gets rid of acne bt i tink it does age my skin...so now, i'll probably switch to REVIVE to check out their pdts.
