I used it once a day before bed after washing my face on every blemish. My whole forehead had been breaking out and i also had some minor hormonal acne.

“Effectiveness:not on my skin. Skin Suitability:no irritation. Pricewise with the this amount is okay. Claimed to reduce size and redness in 2 hours, but does it works on me? No haha. I think it’s because my skin is already immuned from BPO. Anyways, thank you for the coffee mix gift. Didn’t try it yet. Packaged securely. Good.”
