  • Holy Grail Spot Treatment - Amazing for Breakouts!
Size: 1 Fl Oz (Pack of 1) Style: 01 Drying Lotion Glass Bottle, 1 Fl oz
Effectiveness: This Mario Badescu Drying Lotion has been an absolute game-changer for dealing with occasional breakouts and stubborn blemishes. The overnight spot treatment works incredibly fast - I often wake up to find that angry, inflamed pimples have significantly reduced in size and redness after just one application. The zinc oxide and sulfur formula is powerful yet gentle enough that it doesn't over-dry or irritate my skin like some harsh acne treatments do. I love how it targets specific spots without affecting the surrounding healthy skin. The pink sediment at the bottom contains the active ingredients, so shaking it up and applying with a cotton swab gives precise application exactly where needed. Quality: Mario Badescu has built an excellent reputation in skincare, and this drying lotion maintains their high standards for effective, gentle formulations. The 1 fl oz bottle contains a surprisingly long-lasting amount of product since you only need tiny dabs for spot treatment. The consistency allows for precise application without waste, and the formula stays effective throughout the life of the product. The ingredients are well-balanced to provide acne-fighting benefits without the harsh side effects of more aggressive treatments. The packaging protects the formula integrity, and the dropper-style application method ensures hygiene and prevents contamination. Value for Money: This drying lotion provides incredible value when you consider how effectively it treats breakouts and prevents them from becoming larger, more inflamed problems. The small bottle lasts for months of regular use since you only apply it to specific spots, making the cost per treatment very reasonable. When I compare this to dermatologist visits or expensive acne systems, getting professional-quality spot treatment at this price is remarkable. The peace of mind knowing I have an effective solution for unexpected breakouts makes this worth far more than the modest cost. This has become my go-to emergency treatment for breakouts and consistently delivers fast, effective results. Highly recommend for anyone dealing with occasional acne or needing reliable spot treatment! ... show more

  • A Must-Have for Breakouts – Worth Every Penny!
Size: 1 Fl Oz (Pack of 1) Style: 01 Drying Lotion Glass Bottle, 1 Fl oz
I definitely got influenced—I've seen this product all over TikTok for the past two years, and I finally gave it a try a few months ago. I’m so glad I did! I’m almost on my second bottle now because it works that well. I never used to have skin issues until starting college five years ago, when stress and anxiety caused more breakouts. This drying lotion clears up pimples and red bumps quickly, and it dries fast on the skin. It is a bit pricey and does tend to crack so residue does go all over, but honestly, it's worth it. I do wish the bottle had more of the pink lotion than the clear liquid, and a larger size would be great. But I love that the formula uses more natural ingredients. The scent is strong—some might not like it—but I grew up with natural products, so I actually enjoy it. If you’ve been on the fence like I was, give it a try. It’s now a staple in my skincare routine! ... show more

  • worth a try and does work. just might take a couple days for some stubborn ones
Size: 1 Fl Oz (Pack of 1) Style: 01 Drying Lotion Glass Bottle, 1 Fl oz
ok this is a fantastic product and if you like sulfur and it works for you then you know this is amazing. remember to put Q-tip down to the bottom and DONT shake the product first. it is meant to be a 2 part hitting the liquid first then the clay and recoating with liquid. then apply at night. HOWEVER if you do accidentally shake just let it sit still for 2 hours or overnight and then use. this stuff does work. not necessarily overnight but def within several days and for the pricepoint it's worth a try to see especially if you are someone like me that has tried IT ALL looking for the perfect combination that will work. before this i was using a clay product that did work but not as well and it was considerable higher from a private brand out of CA. so i gladly switched to this instead ... show more

  • Good, but Temper Expectations
Size: 1 Fl Oz (Pack of 1) Style: Drying Lotion Plastic Bottle, 1 Fl oz
Mario Badescu’s Drying Lotion definitely looks like it should pack a punch — it’s loaded with salicylic acid, sulfur, and zinc oxide, so I expected a fast, heavy-hitting spot treatment. The formula has a really strong, almost medicinal smell (not exactly pleasant, but it makes you feel like it’s “doing something”). That said, for all the actives in here, the results weren’t as dramatic as I hoped. It helps a little with calming down surface blemishes, but it doesn’t magically erase them overnight or stop new ones from forming. With this much going on in the bottle, I thought it would be more effective. Decent to have on hand, but definitely not a cure-all. It does flake a bit overnight and you have to sleep on your back or else it might rub off on your pillow cases. FWIW it often gets mixed up in the bottle and you have to let it settle back into two parts. Lasts a long time, but I think they advertise this (even in the product name) as this magic bullet that clears you up overnight. It helps for sure, but not an overnight cure-all. ... show more
