V55 MAX Double Strength Salicylic Acid Skin Cleansing Cream with Tea Tree Oil and Sulphur - Paraben and Cruelty Free - 50ML

This is the best I’ve ever used. It clears black spots and prevents acne and pimples. I’ve been using it for the past 3 years and it never disappoints. It’s very effective and I highly recommend it

I left my review for 10 days just so that I gave this cream a chance to work. Basically, I had a really nasty spot that just wouldn't improve with well known brands of spot creams. Just to give you and idea and sorry I know this is gross but the combo of hormones, cover up, heat and suncream turned the boil I had on my chin into a monster like no other. It became full of pus and I couldn't seem to improve it. I also started to panic thinking that perhaps the bacteria was spreading because I noticed other smaller spots on my face started to appear, almost like acne. I'm usually quite lucky with my skin and only tend to get one small boil come up on my chin every hormonal cycle and then it disappears again. This particular boil is the one I was having trouble with now. I noticed this cream had excellent reviews so thought I'd give it a try. Like other people have commented, yes it smells relatively strong but more of an antiseptic smell and nothing that would put me off using it day and night. It says you should use day and night. It also says to use on effected areas so I literally just put it on the spots. The cream is thick so putting it all over your face could be a bit much anyway. I think it would be too drying to put all over the face - perhaps if your skin was very oily it would be OK. I remember a beautician telling me once that if you don't moisturiser even trouble areas and you dry out a problem area too much then the skin will produce more oil and then exacerbate the problem. I guess that makes sense. I noticed that it dried out the spot. Within 2 days it had calmed right down. No pus. The smaller spots went in 3 days. I sent daily picture updates to my sister and she couldn't believe how amazing it is - she gets a similar problem and has occasional required antibiotics on and off. Even she commented that this could be worth trying for herself. I had a small spot appear on my forehead recently and that completely disappeared in 1 day! 10 days down the line the boil is really un- noticeable but I will continue using for a while longer. The pigmentation of the skin around the spot has calmed right down and looks normal again. I think it's going to take a bit of TLC for that spot anyway. I noticed that the pore must have been slightly damaged so could flare again. My plan is to use this cream as an adjunct now. So, I'm going to use scrubs, This cream and also started using face masks. I might try and look to buy a similar serum to use. I'm thinking that if I use this all the time my skin might get used to it and won't work as well. I know it's good to change products. I was a little scared to use the cream at first after reading the word acid and that some people mentioned that it tingles. I tried on my forearm first to see if I'd react to it but all was fine. It sometimes tingles and then settles but it's a good tingle like it's doing something good such as antiseptic. I would recommend this product.

It works, I can promise you that. Verified and all of that taff. I used a small amount three times a day on an otherwise 20 year old nose that had been subjected to vast advanced elite premium grade amounts of oil and other facial debris, while spending my youth eating crisps, pizza and other fatty foods for maximum trash skin appearance, etc. After two weeks the horrible blackheads have reduced significantly - there's none on my T-Zone above my eyes anymore and none on the left and right sides of my nose, the cheeks below my eyes etc, all gone. My nose itself is still an eyesore at point blank range, but it has been very reduced in obvious blackheadedness, etc. Good stuff, very effective, I'm sure in another couple of months my blackheads will be nothing but a memory. However, there is one caveat. It smells like burned plastic / recently lit matches. There's no getting around it. It's an awful smell that due to the fact you're applying it directly onto your nose in most cases, will be ever present and not something you can truly get used to. Worst still, is the fact other people can smell it too. Part of my routine is applying some after my gym session, and after I leave the locker room I always visit reception, and recently the woman behind the desk and the people she was dealing with both remarked they could smell something burning, and then looked around and asked other people if they could, etc. I'm 100% sure the smell of this cream is the reason for that reaction, luckily they didn't pay me much mind. That's quite a smelly cream! If you live alone you might get away with using it before bed, or if you have periods during the day you can use it without needing to be near anyone for a few hours, it's great! Otherwise, expect a lot of funny comments by people nearby. I suppose it's possible I got a defective cream that isn't meant to smell like burnt plastic / used matches - this is my first time using the cream, after all. Oh well, it works and that's all I really care about anyway.

I purchased this cream after reading many positive reviews, and seeing before and after photos. I suffer from adult acne and my skin scars easily (even when I don't touch the pimples). I also have combination skin and some parts get really oily. When using the product for a week at night everyday, it did work, reducing the redness of my acne and clearing up some of the scarring along my chin and jawline. However, I think my skin is super sensitive and I found the cream was too strong, which resulted in it drying my chin area completely and triggering my eczema. I had to stop using the product for 2 weeks to clear up my eczema, which is a shame because the product kind of worked for me. In the near future, I will be using it once in a while for spot treatments and hopefully that won't trigger any dryness.

I don’t see an expiration date on this product which would have been helpful. Now not sure if it’s an expired product.

j'étais envahi par des boutons d'acné depuis 6 mois et j ai essayé 20 crème différents rien à faire; cela fait 4emejour d'utilisation déjà mes taches d'acné presque noir commence à disparaître et je mets bcp sur mes bouton ;la texture lisse et il y a une légère odeur qui dérange pas;après il seche; elle est a la fois exfoliant mais je frotte pas pour que la crème reagisse; je frotte tous les 2 jours et la peau éclaircisse; bonne produit; je pense quand je finirais le pot les boutons enfin sera déjà parti;

Ich habe mir diese Creme bestellt, da ich immer und immer wieder Mitesser habe, die nicht weggehen. Die Creme habe ich morgens und abends und manchmal mittags aufgetragen. Der Geruch ist Joa ok.. Wer eine gut riechende Creme erwartet ist hier fehl am Platz. Aber sie soll ja helfen und nicht duften... Das Cremen an sich ist ok, sie zieht sehr schnell ein und hinterlässt keinen film. Jedoch habe ich die Creme nun schon fast aufgebraucht und die Mitesser sind immer noch da. JEDOCH! Ich leide an einer sonnenallergie, ich bekomme am decolte und im Gesicht oft Pusteln, die jucken wie verrückt. Seit ich diese Creme nutze, habe ich zwar auch vereinzelt Pusteln, jedoch ohne jucken... Was für mich ein klares "wieder kaufen" bedeutet.

Effectief tegen puistjes

N'apporte rien de bon, à part une peau très grasse
