Reviews

I don’t know why it

"I don’t know why it took me so long to learn about this product! I use it for my back and chest and it actually works. It’s visibly reduced the number of breakouts after having used it for the past few weeks. One thing to note is that the mister is a little hard to use!"

— Juan L. (5/5)

Pretty good

"I have been using this product daily for about two weeks and have noticed a difference with less breakouts. The sprayer is a little intense, and the smell is stronger than I'd like but, at least it's working."

— Dorlena B. (5/5)

Product is worth 5 stars

"Product is worth 5 stars but packaging is a problem, the nozzle has been defective on two different cans I've purchased. One was completely unusable and the other very difficult to spray. Hopefully they fix this soon"

— Amanda B. (4/5)

Reduced breakouts

"Ive been using this product for two weeks, and have noticed some improvement. My breakouts have reduced and seem to be more at ease. However, it will take more time to see very noticeable results of course. I’m hoping it will help with the appearance of scars. The smell is strong at first but not as unpleasant as other body acne sprays. Great product and worth a shot!"

— Beenish F. (5/5)

It's great

"First thing that has every actually worked. It's extremely easy to use. My only wish is that the can be bigger. I've wasted so much money on other products. This is the best product I've used no question."
