  • Great Results with a Few Caveats – Worth the Try!
Style: Effaclar Salicylic Acid Serum
I’ve been using the La Roche‑Posay Effaclar Salicylic Acid Acne Treatment Serum, and it’s been a game-changer for my breakout-prone skin. The lightweight formula, combining salicylic, glycolic, and LHA acids, works on multiple concerns—acne, clogged pores, fine lines, and post-acne marks—all with minimal irritation. My skin texture is smoother, pores appear smaller, and breakouts are less frequent. Just remember to patch test and start slow—if your skin is sensitive, introduce it gradually and always wear SPF! Overall, a very effective dermatologist‑backed serum that’s now a staple in my routine ... show more

  • Effective and gentle serum for clearer skin!
Style: Effaclar Salicylic Acid Serum
I’ve been using the La Roche-Posay Effaclar Facial Serum for a few weeks, and it’s made a noticeable difference in my skin. It helps reduce oiliness and minimizes blemishes without causing irritation or dryness. The lightweight formula absorbs quickly and feels refreshing on the skin. My complexion looks clearer and more balanced, and breakouts have significantly decreased since I started using it. It’s suitable for sensitive, oily, and acne-prone skin like mine. I also appreciate that it doesn’t clog pores or leave a greasy residue. Highly recommend this serum if you’re looking for a reliable solution to oily and acne-prone skin! ... show more

  • LOVE this product
Style: Effaclar Salicylic Acid Serum
I really love the results this product provides! I am 45 years old, and I have battled acne my entire life and this has really helped. I’ve been using this for about a year now and have noticed a marked improvement in my breakouts. It’s very lightweight, and absorbs very quickly leaving a nice brightening effect. My face is also definitely softer, and smoother. Now - having said all that I do not like the scent at all. I wish it was fragrance free, but to me it’s a small price to pay for the results I get! ... show more

  • Actually works for nose and chin inflammatory acne
Style: Effaclar Salicylic Acid Serum
After dealing with stubborn, never ending inflammatory acne for years on chin and nose, decided to give this a whirl because of the good reviews. After two weeks of using it, I wish I would’ve bought this five years ago. It would’ve saved me a ton of money on other stupid products and headache because this actually works. The only reason I give it four stars is because I haven’t used it long-term yet, but I would highly recommend it to anyone who is suffering with sebaceous gland activity that is relentless. Literally can’t believe I might actually have clear skin in a few weeks. This will definitely become a product. I will keep in my repertoire year-round. ... show more

  • Great
Style: Effaclar Salicylic Acid Serum
I got a little burning sensation the first few days but according to my research that is what the product is supposed to do. I pair it with my retinol and the results are magnificent. Also, results get better with the time, I don't feel like I need to use it every day now so I go every other day.
