Even in my 30's I still struggle with breakouts.  I feel like I tried everything!  I still go back and forth between using salicylic acid and benzoyl peroxide.  I have been using more benzoyl peroxide products recently so when I had the chance to review the Apothederm Acne Clarifying Treatment I took it as a good time to change again.

Apothederm Acne Clarifying Treatment is both a treatment for acne but also minimizes pore size and keeps skin balanced.  The 1% salicylic acid is an anti-inflammatory that also exfoliates dead skin cells to help reduce pore size and sebum build up.  It also has Oligopeptide-10 Patented SmartPeptide® technology that has skin calming properties, shown to help bind cellular toxins as well as glycerin which is a humectant that draws moisture to skin.

According to the instructions you can put it on the affected area up to three times a day unless excessive drying occurs then reduce the use.  I started out with twice a day and had no problems with dryness.  The product had a minimal smell and no dyes which I like.  Even though I have breakouts, my skin is also very sensitive.  It absorbed very quickly and I didn't feel like I had anything on my face once it was dry.  I found that one and a half to two pumps was enough for my face.

I have been using this every day for a few weeks now and I like this product and the way it makes my skin feel.  It definitely helped to control my breakouts. even the hormonal ones.  I was happy that it didn't dry my face out and cause peeling.

  1. I need something for my pores!! They're huge! Right now I don't use anything for breakouts because everything dries my skin out too much and I end up with red blotches! I will have to check this product out!!

  2. I was using a Clean & Clear product but I think my skin is getting used to it - it hasn't been working as well so I definitely need to try something different.

  3. I've been trying Panoxyl but it is really drying! I also like Burts Bees in general - I feel like it makes my skin more cooperative, but it's not a solution.

  4. I've tried lots of products but no miracle products. I've been using adovia mud mask with some luck but not completely gone. I thought at 26 my face would have cleared up.
