I purchased this product recently and have been using it about every other day. The container is a bit small if you have several break-outs, but is a good size if you only get a couple small pimples per month. I found that the product dried my cystic acne out and made the spots sort of 'leathery'. I would not suggest the product for someone with cystic acne, however if you have small pimples every one in a while, the product would be great for you.

After several years of pretty clear skin, my acne has recently flared up (not cool in your late 20s!). Since I've been won over with origins facial cleansors, I bought Spot Remover, as a topical nighttime treatment to get rid of these ugly red dots! I read the reviews on Origins which varied from "this stuff is great, it clears acne without drying, unlike other spot treatments" to "this is over-priced junk." Unfortunately, $12 later, I'm more in agreement with the later half. It's true -- it has not dried out my skin, so maybe if that is a major concern this is a product you should consider. However it failed to acheive it's purpse -- get rid of my acne! I used it every night for 2 weeks with no improvement. Am currently in the market to try something else.
