How to conduct an at-home patch test:
Patch tests are an easy way to help predict if you will have a negative initial reaction to a new product. It is recommended to perform a patch test before incorporating a new product into your routine. We have outlined a general method for conducting your own patch test.
- Apply a small amount of the product onto a clean area of skin on the upper forearm.
- Keep the area dry, preferably covered with a bandage.
- After 24 hours, uncover the area and rinse.
- If any redness, burning, itching, blistering or irritation is observed at any time throughout the test, do not use the product.
Please note that the patch test is only for determining initial irritation reactions to products and does not guarantee similar results when applied to other areas of the body (including the face) or after continuous use. It does not account for underlying conditions and should not be used for the diagnosis of hypersensitivity or allergic contact dermatitis. If you are concerned about starting a new product, please consult a dermatologist prior to use.

Salicylic acid 2% Solution very bad reaction
I used this AM and PM as recommended on the box. For a few days my skin was fine, then out of nowhere I felt a burning sensation and washed it off straight away, however I was left with a rash like reaction.

Amazing
I only really tend to use this at night when I remember and it amazes me every time. Any spots that are lingering under the skin are brought to the surface by the morning and it really reduces the swelling and redness.

Good
This is a good product and a lot of you tubers rave about it and say how good it has been for their skin. This product hasn’t made much difference to me. When I first started using the product it burnt my skin so if you have sensitive skin DO NOT buy this product

Burns like hell
I used it for only two days. On the first day I could see my spots smaller however the next day my skin was burnt, dry and red and very sensitive.

Miracle
I’ve always had trouble with spots since a teen and I had tried what felt like everything to try and get rid of them. My sister bought herself and myself this product after reading the positive reviews (whilst also noticing the low price tag). We both tried it and we’ve both had such positive results. Both our skin is clear which is something neither of us has experienced before. Can’t recommend enough, changed my life!

Alright, a bit overhyped
I have dry sensitive skin and I bought this product because of all the amazing reviews. To be honest, I haven't seen much of a difference as of now however, the product doesn't seem to be irritating my skin at all. I will just have to continue using it daily in order to see a difference.

Excellent for acne
I use this together with the Niacinamide serum and both have been a godsend to my acne. The serum resurfaces the skin without irritation. The Niacinamide serum is a bit irritating on my skin but this one is fine. It also helps to stop new spots from forming. I will be repurchasing.

Soo good
I have overall dry but very oily skin at the T zone with some zits and blackheads, I used this twice a day with the Niacinamide 10%+zink 1% and it worked WONDERS!! My skin has never been more clear!

Not the best
It definitely dries out the skin, but it does not get rid of pimples or acne. I've used a whole bottle and all that it has done is further increase the amount of oil my skin produces. I'm now so oily all the time. I guess the product prompted my skin to produce more oil to compensate. If you are to buy the product, make sure you only apply a small amount as it will dry the skin quite a lot. It doesn't have a very noticeable smell and is a sort of heavy consistency, that applies white but dries colourless.

Not good! Drying
I used it twice and I didn't like it. It stings and makes the skin feel tight and dry. I will stick to Paula's choice BHA. The rest of the ordinary products are excellent but this one is not.
