It didn't fit in the subject line, but this is a rant.
I bought this as I was so desperate that I would have bought anything that got good reviews. Surprisingly, this got loads of rave reviews on makeupalley etc, but did absolutely NOTHING for me. Just one more proof that things work for some and not for others.
I bought this in sephora for 28 dollars (.5 oz), when I was battling the worst break out of my life. It's a sulfur acne treatment cream and an over night spot treatment. You can use it one to three times daily.
When I first used it I thought I had bought the wrong product. First of all, it's tinted, secondly, it has almost no sulfur smell and, thirdly, it didn't do anything for any of my break outs at all. I could have just put on foundation. In fact, I think it made some of my blemishes heal slower.
Well, to wrap it up, I would not recommend this at all. It didn't do anything for me, but everybody is different, so that's probably why it got good reviews. |

I hear you. Sorry it didn't work for you. Can you return it to sephora? If there's a sephora near you, you should ask them to make you a sample, so you don't have to buy first. I try to do that since lots of products don't work on my skin, too. It's frustrating. |

That's a good idea, Natalyn.
I'm always too shy to ask (weird, I know) but I definitely will next time. I just read SoCalGal's review on ren's clear calm anti-acne treatment ask and I really want to try it. However, it would be a rather pricey experiment if I bought the whole thing, so I think I will ask for a sample. |

Have you used Retin A cream or Gel? I started to breakout after 30 years old, but now after I used Retin A cream, my break out got better. |

Hi azumma, I am not quite ready for Retin A, yet. My skin is getting better now that I am less stressed. It is definitely a possibility in my books, though, especially because of its anti aging benefits. |
