This is the only blemish crème/serum that works for my pre teen son’s stubborn blackheads on his nose. As soon as his hormones started changing around 11-12yo his nose area was a hot mess. It felt like it happened overnight. I had a bottle of this on hand, but hesitated to have him use because of the price so I first tried several OTC options, biore strips, and a handful of other teen acne serums SunnySDSD · lovelyskin.com

This has been my one and only face wash for YEARS. It is light, reliable, and has never broken me out. My complexion has only improved upon adding this to my daily cleansing routine. Aveeno is extremely reliable, I always trust the brands that have been around for years and years. It is not scented which is another reason my skin loves it! You get SO much product for your money!
