Murad Deep Relief Acne Treatment - Maximum Strength With 2% Salicylic Acid And Phytosteroid For Deep, Painful Breakouts Redness Accelerated Healing 1 Fl Oz

I bought this for my 21 year old daughter who started to have bad deep breakouts on her cheeks. After just a week of using I have noticed her face looks better than it has in 6 months.

I don’t tend to write reviews unless a product changed my life or burned my house down. This serum solved a blind pimple that had been going on 10 days with no change. I can’t guarantee it wasn’t a combination of literally everything else I’d been trying (warm compresses, BHA, salicylic microdart patches, etc) but it arrived in the afternoon, I gooped it on, let it dry, then put a normal hydrocolloid patch over it to keep my fingers away. Before bed I noted my patch was peeling. Annoyed, I assumed it just wasn’t sticking to the liquid skin this product makes on your skin. NOPE the pimple had come to a tiny head and was starting to drain. Elation, friends. I cleaned, put more Murad on, and a new patch. I’m repeating every twelve hours or so and expect it’ll finish draining in a day or two. I didn’t love the price point but after a week and a half of nothing getting rid of the huge blind behemoth on my cheek, I was ready to try anything. It worked within a day. It was worth the money. I think I’ll save it only for when I have these deep blind cysts/nodules but it’s not just 2% salicylic like you might think you can replace it with. It’s the big guns. So so thankful it worked.

It works pretty well with drying pimples. My daughter loves the cooling effect it has on some of her painful acne.

I have an underground pimple which is red and bumpy. I tried many products but it didn’t go away . It’s staying red and bumpy no matter what I tried. I decided to try this product thinking it’s expensive it must be good. After 3 days of consistent use. The acne flatted and the redness went away. I’m so happy with the result. Update: this product works but will leave a very DARK spot same area after it heals . I’m not the only user noticing this . So be aware of that .

I got this in October and now it is December so I've been using it for several months. What I notice most about this acne treatment is how it reduces inflammation and redness. It does not burn or sting like most salicylic acid products do! It seems more healing, calming and nourishing. When I use it consistently for a few days in a row about twice a day I do see good results. My problem is I'm horribly allergic to Palm Kernel Oil and if I eat any by mistake I start to breakout badly all over my face. I also notice some chocolate also causes some breakouts but usually it has Palm Kernel Oil in it and I didn't check! Regular chocolate rarely has that effect! So this was fairly expensive but the results are worth the money. I notice spots heal faster with this and redness is really reduced so less irritation and worry! ~The Rebecca Review
