    • Smells horrible, but works well
This stuff smells absolutely horrible, so if you're using it for your nose you're going to have a bad day... but it works so well that it's worth it in my opinion. I haven't experienced any of the negative issues that other people mentioned. Regarding chemical burns - I don't have sensitive skin, and I've only used it a max of once per day, and no issues so far. Cleared up my skin super quick as well so I'm only using it as needed vs daily. Regarding bleaching of pillow cases, I waited a minimum of 30 minutes before going to bed and haven't noticed any issues with discoloration of my pillow cases. (My pillow cases are black) So far I'm happy with my purchase. ... show more

    • Effective, not too harsh, great price
Good for nightly use. I put it on my T-zone and it seems to keep whiteheads away. I use it two or three times a week. This works just like a Paula’s Choice product I used to use, but is much cheaper.

    • Ok
Seller didn’t ship order for one month, finally received the item. Expiration date is ok, packaging too. The serum has strange strong smell, I guess it’s sulfur. Serum is transparent and invisible when applied. Can be a bit sore if there’s damaged skin. I have blackheads on my nose so I applied it only there. No sticky feelings. Will continue to use, hope it will help to rid off of blackheads. ... show more

    • Smells terrible and doesn’t do much
It works but not to warrant the price and little amount you get. It’s not really anything great in fact I’ve seen much better products with a better smell. It smells like a fish kept in a plastic bag for six months I don’t know why they couldn’t cover it up better. Didn’t irritate my skin thankfully. ... show more

    • Works!
This product is particularly effective for treating blackheads and acne, as it effectively eliminates both conditions. I only used it on affected areas and not the whole face. Works well for me. Highly recommended.

    • Smells like a Dirty Dish Rag
I was liking the product until it suddenly started smelling just like a dirty dish rag. When I first received the product it smelt fairly unscented, but it quickly turned into the smell of a dirty dish rag or moldy sponge. It seems something went bad in the product.
