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.

Horrible
I have bad acne so I thought I'd try this out but now every spot turned into a yellow paste, my face is bright red and burns like hell. I tried this last year and it done the same and I thought I'd try it out again but I really shouldn't have because it shouldn't be this painful.

The best
That acid is the best thing that ever happened to my skin. Really love it! But be careful to not get your skin dry or burnt and use it smart

Can’t live without it
I haven’t had a spot since I started using this serum and completely changed my skincare routine. Recently I ran out and had to spend 3 days without it, I broke out with angry, sore spots all over and now I’m back to using the acid they are completely gone. My previous spot treatments have left behind discolouration - this is the only thing I’ve used that hasn’t as it mostly works by preventing the spots. Personally I haven’t experienced any type of increased sensitivity or negative reaction.

Love it
Love this product!. Overnight it sorted out my large oily pores, uneven skin texture and after about a month all my milia spots came to the surface and disappeared! I have not had any acne spots since I began starting to use this. Never going without it again x

Good for Spot Treating
This is quite a strong treatment so I would only use it all over my face if I had built up a tolerance to BHA's, but I find AHA's work better for my dry, sensitive acne prone skin. However I find this very effective as a spot treatment, I use it along side the cosrx spot patches and I've noticed my spots going much quicker and it has drastically decreased scarring. I know I can put a good deal of this down to this product as I was using it for several months before purchasing the patches. I wouldn't use it alongside any other strong actives such as a strong vitamin C serum, but alternating in my routine when needed has been a miracle. Also the price can't be beat!

Brilliant
Growing up along side my girl cousins with perfect skin and me unfortunately coping with my acne made me feel quiet self conscious which made me determined to find something to help it! Think it’s fair to say I have been through quite a number of products, (both prescribed and bought) but nothing seemed to do the job. Of course I don’t want to feel self conscious at high school with bad skin but nor do I have the time to slap a full face of makeup on every morning. After a long while of feeling crap about my skin I started looking into buying a full coverage foundation and thank the lord I found this before resorting to everyday makeup. I suffer from acne on my forehead and cheekbone area and I can definitely see a difference the next morning! Defo’s recommend trying it unless you have sensitive skin
