hit or miss
after developing cystic acne on my chin and along my cheeks, i saw this product on tiktok and decided to give it a try. Loved it for a few months, it definitely cleared my skin during the summer. helped a lot with cystic acne and texture. It got too drying when the seasons changed. also seemed to stop working for me after a while? I'm not sure what happened but suddenly it didn't work for me anymore. maybe better for really oily skin.

Disenfecting, a bit drying, but worth it.
The peroxide is going to break down the dead skin cells and any dried blood in your pores. It helps to kill the bacteria in them, which causes pimples and cysts. I've been dealing with fairly severe acne for a while, and I have problems with skin picking, but this helps. Make sure to moisturize well with it. It's steadily been eradicating the infections and cysts. Just avoid using medicated moisturizers directly afterward. Things like vitamin c or retinol will react with leftover peroxide, degrading and becoming less powerful. Either use a moisturizer without reactive acidic ingredients, or apply about 30 minutes after as not to waste the active ingredients in your moisturizer!
