Neutrogena On-the-Spot Acne Treatment works hard to keep skin healthy-looking.
Works hard to keep skin healthy-looking.
This on-the-spot acne treatment stocks Benzoyl Peroxide, the hardworking pimple fighter, in a moderate, 2.5-percent solution. Just enough to clear up your blemishes, but not so much that skin is left red, dry or irritated.
Break the Breakout Cycle - Some medicated spot treatments contain high doses of benzoyl peroxide that can irritate skin, causing redness and dryness which can make acne worse. Neutrogena On-the-Spot Acne Treatment has been clinically proven to provide maximum strength effectiveness in fighting acne, while being gentle to the skin.
Maximum Strength Effectiveness, Less Irritation, Won't Dry Out Skin - Neutrogena On-the-Spot Acne Treatment allows just 2.5% benzoyl peroxide, one of the most effective acne medicines you can buy, to provide the same maximum level of effectiveness as a conventional 10% formula. And less benzoyl peroxide means less irritation...and it won't dry out your skin. This fast working formula contains a special blend of ingredients to enhance the benzoyl peroxide's penetration and target the source of acne. It goes deep down in the pores to kill the acne bacteria that cause pimples and helps to stop new ones from forming.
Less Irritation, Won't Dry Out Skin. Relieves redness of acne pimples and overdrying of skin.
Minimizes Shine. Invisible formula contains natural, oil-absorbing ingredients that help soak up oil and keep skin looking shine-free.
Long-Lasting Protection. Works hour after hour to give long-lasting acne treatment and protection. With regular use, it helps stop new pimples before they appear.
Indications
For the treatment of acne.

Why it's great: This is the acne cream I keep coming back to. I am 30 years old and have had acne since I was a preteen. I've tried everything - Accutane, Retin-A, antibiotics, birth control pills, philosophie, Proactive, Oxy 10, Clearasil, you name it.
This stuff works because it kills the bacteria that cause acne but the dose of benzoyl peroxide is low enough that it does not overdry and irritate the skin if used properly.
How to use: I use with a mild soap like Cetaphil. DON'T COMBINE THIS WITH HARSH CLEANSERS/OTHER ACNE MEDICATIONS. I use it all over my face at night and I apply to the few zits I actually have in the morning. Make sure your SKIN IS COMPLETELY DRY AFTER CLEANSING before you apply it because otherwise it can cause redness and irritation. Give it a few days/weeks to start working because it will take some time for the dead skin to be exfoliated. During this time it is possible that you may get a few more breakouts than usual. Don't give up though, it should work if you follow my instructions. And USE A MOISTURIZER WITH SUNSCREEN DURING THE DAY.
IMPORTANT - Also, USE WHITE LINENS - towels and sheets/pillowcases - because it will bleach fabric. That is really the only major problem, in my opinion.

This product will work for me at first for a few weeks and then it will suddenly stop working. My skin is just like that when it comes to ance medications. It will build up a tolerance and then the product will be ineffective. I would have to buy this once every 3 months or so in order to be constent with it, or I'd have to use it for a few weeks, switch to something else, and then switch back. Which is probably only adding to the acne that I'm trying to get rid of. But its inexpensive, and I trust this Neutrogena so I don't mind going back to it.
Comments about Neutrogena On-the-Spot Acne Treatment, Vanishing Formula, .75 oz:
I use this at night after washing my face and mosturizing. I apply it on active breakouts and notice a big difference in the morning. All of the pimples I apply this spot treatment to are visibly smaller. Be careful not to overuse this product because it can definetely cause your skin to dry and start to flake. Overall, it really helps with my acne. Love it!
Comments about Neutrogena On-the-Spot Acne Treatment, Vanishing Formula, .75 oz:
Its not the fault of this product, I have to say. I have realized that none of the benzoyl peroxide products really work. I ended up buying Wipeout after a friend told be about it and it cleared my face in a month. I finished the Neutrogena product as well. But it was the Wipeout pill that worked, not this stuff.
Comments about Neutrogena On-the-Spot Acne Treatment, Vanishing Formula, .75 oz:
I guess there really is no product that works for everyone. I bought this because my friend swears by it, but it honestly did nothing for my pimples. If anything, it made them worse! The area where I applied the cream became dry and irritated, which looks worse than having a few pimples. To make matters worse, it left dark purple acne scars that take forever to disappear. Usually when I get a pimple, it leaves a light brown spot that disappears in a few weeks. But on the pimples where I applied this cream, it left oddly dark and stubborn acne scars. This is the worst acne product I have ever used.
I'm sure there are people out there who love this stuff, but I really recommend that you try it out on just one pimple before you go applying this stuff all over your face. Make sure it works for you before you commit to it.
Comments about Neutrogena On-the-Spot Acne Treatment, Vanishing Formula, .75 oz:
It doesn't work. And it actually irrates my skin a lot. I guess it might actually work great on some people, since there are some good reviews of this product, but not in my case. Maybe it's just individual difference.
Comments about Neutrogena On-the-Spot Acne Treatment, Vanishing Formula, .75 oz:
I used this product before , and it didn't really do much. I tried it again this month (I only used it at night) , and All hell broke loose on my face, I broke out more than usual. I have sensitive skin, and it dried my skin extremely bad around my nose area and made it a super red color. I wouldn't recommend this product if you have sensitive skin at all, but what may not work for me may work for you all skin is different. Overall I did NOT like this acne cream.
Comments about Neutrogena On-the-Spot Acne Treatment, Vanishing Formula, .75 oz:
Everyones skin is different, but this product has always worked great for me! Right before I go to bed I rub this on my face and it shrinks my acne by morning. This on the spot acne treatment has saved me so many times from having an annoying breakout! To use, I would recommend using a pea size amount on each part of your face. Too much application can result in a little dryness of your skin. All in all the only thing I would change is the smell of it. It's like I'm rubbing Elmer's glue all over my face.
Comments about Neutrogena On-the-Spot Acne Treatment, Vanishing Formula, .75 oz:
I used to have the worst looking skin, horrible acne would break out on my chin. They were really painful, too, the kind of acne that was large, inflamed and seemed to be set "deep" into the skin. This guy on the web suggested using this product along with a very gentle cleanser and moisturizer. Use the cleanser, let your skin dry off, apply thin coat of the acne med every day whether you currently have a break out or not, and then after the acne med. dries on your skin, moisturize. I have never had a break out since, and I've been following this routine since 2003. I'd say it works. My chin is never dried out from the product. I have had 3 occasions where my skin felt a bit irritated, but it went away very quickly.
Comments about Neutrogena On-the-Spot Acne Treatment, Vanishing Formula, .75 oz:
I use this morning and night, after cleansing. It works great, however, it smells pretty bad, and feels very heavy on the skin. I will keep on buying this, however, because it is very effective and the only 2.5 percent benzoyl peroxide cream in drugstores.
