Finally Available in Larger Size!!

I have been buying this product in its smaller size for years and finally it is available in a larger size. It's great for spot treatments but now I am using a light layer on m...

Absolutely In Love!!!
I've never really had acne growing up but as I've started to age I have been getting some really stubborn acne. Specifically across my forehead, along my cheek bones and along my jaw line. I was given this product as a free samply and absolutely fell in love with it!! I do have extremely sensitive skin so I only apply directly to my pimples. It works wonders! Those stubborn pimples that stay under the skin, gone! It's like my super hero against these breakouts, finally got my full size and I'm so happy. Had a recent breakout from stress but I know it'll be completely clear in 2 weeks. Thank you Clinique!!!
Best product!!

I received it as a sample, but event small amount of product showed how good it at acne treatment. Only after testing it, I ordered another package of 15 ml. I don't need much of the product as I apply it only on the acne spot (not the whole face), which I rarely have.
