Great for bacne! Irritating and clogging for sensitive skin
Disclaimer: I received this product free from Bzzagent for testing purposes but the opinions expressed remain 100% my own honest thoughts.

This product worked wonders for sensitive acne prone skin. I also have dry skin and it didn't try me out. I highly recommend this product.

Honestly, this is an absolute must have for me. I had the expertly clear set and hated the other part of this set but this... I can't live without this. For the price, it's still well worth it. It does its job and a little goes a long way.

Works quickly and gently on breakouts. It has a light scent and sinks into skin with no drying. Noticeable improvement in blemishes in about 2 days. My husband and 22 yo daughter with super sensitive skin use it as well. It helps with any dark marks after healing and works smoothly under makeup. A must have for any age.
Great product
