I tried using this for about a year. Absolutely no improvement in my acne or skin. This may work for others but it made zero difference for me.

I have occasional issues with hormonal acne and bought this to see if it would help, and I figured there might be an anti aging benefit. It was ok- it helped with breakouts but didn't wipe them...

This really does work. The one thing I am annoyed with is the excess packaging and the high price. Oh well, I guess it is worth it to have clear skin.
