    • This works perfectly to dry out blemishes and even helps with cysts
Style: 01 Drying Lotion Glass Bottle, 1 Fl oz
I have eczema and cystic acne..a bad combination since eczema limits the harsh products one can use (like retin-a) that help so much for cystic acne. The product has sulfur in it and it does not upset my sensible skin if I only use it once a day (twice a day is too much for me, so I use it at night before bed on clean skin). I have found (from years of experience) that this drying gel actually does dry erupted acne, as well as near-erupted acne. I think it also works a little magic on buried cysts that have yet to come to the surface, but definitely helps once they are at the surface. A little goes a long way. Even with daily use I only need to order this maybe once every 2 months. A great steal at this price as many competing products cost 3x as much as this one, and are similarly effective. Mario Badescu is a well-known brand and has been around for decades. I trust this brand and I love this product. Highly recommend!! ... show more

    • Good product
Style: 01 Drying Lotion Glass Bottle, 1 Fl oz
I first used this product well over 30 years ago and loved it. Had no need for it until recently and thrilled it is still being made. The smell is not great and only slightly dissipates over time, but the product is so effective at drying out pimples, that I'll put up with the odor. Just put on pimple, not over entire face as it is drying to the skin. ... show more

    • Amazing, better than pimple patches
Style: 01 Drying Lotion Glass Bottle, 1 Fl oz
So i didn’t get to try this as soon as i got it because i kept forgetting your not supposed to shake it. but when i did use it, it worked amazing! i woke up and the zits were gone! the smell is extremely bad, i had to use it right under my nose, but it was worth it. if you have sensitive skin i would be careful just because it is a skin dryer and that could cause a breakout if you’re not careful ... show more

    • This was a good duo.I haven't tried the patches before but LOVE 'Em!Here's my thorough review....
Style: 03 Drying Lotion Glass Bottle, 1 Fl oz &...
The Mario Badescu Drying Lotion is a 5 star product on it's own, a holy grail to many and for good reason.This was a great duo to purchase because I've heard of pimple patches but never triall day. Drying lotion pm,patches for daytime.These patches blew me away.They are discrete(unless you are looking hard)they adhere very well throughout your day.I tried putting one to the test and moisturized with my SkinFix moisturizer(BTW if anybody knows a great dupe,open to suggestions) allowing my moisturizer to absorb for 10-15min then I popped on the patch,much to my surprise it remained all day.Staying power aside the results were astonishing.The reduction of bump size & how swollen or popped up it was significantly went down.It went from looking from a OMG!I am sprouting a horn on my forehead to it looking like a red splotches with no bump.AMAZING PRODUCT.I regret not taking before & after pics but next time,I will. Definitely interested in buying again. ... show more

    • Miracle Lotion
Style: 01 Drying Lotion Glass Bottle, 1 Fl oz
I have been buyting this product for over 3+ years for my teen son and daughter and it is amazing. You have to follow the direction and let the bottle sit so the pink solution settles to the bottom then you apply it to your pimple at night and the next day the pimple is gone or close to being gone. This is the only thing my family uses for break outs. I have also recommeded this product to friends and they just as pleased with the results. It is our to solution for break outs. ... show more

    • Buy it buy it buy it!
Style: 01 Drying Lotion Glass Bottle, 1 Fl oz
This is going to be a long review since I love this product so my apologies in advance. I hope it helps someone. Advance Warning - Both of these products have isopropyl alcohol which is *extremely* drying. It works but its possible to end up with irritation like I did. After about 4 days I ended up with a slightly itchy rash. There was no redness but a bunch of tiny bumps. It reminded of contact dermatitis. Fortunately my breakout was done by then. If it happens, don't freak out. Stop using the product for now. It will go away and it can be covered up by makeup without irritating the skin (be sure to use non-irritating makeup.) It can take up to 2 weeks ago. Mine did. The skin may have a slightly rougher texture for a couple more weeks after that. Exfolation can help. You will be able to use the product again in the future but use it sparingly and only on the areas needed. I think what caused it for me was putting it over the whole area of blemishes and being lazy instead of exactly where the spots were. It might seem like an unpleasant side effect but I really needed to get rid of the breakout that just kept multiplying. It was worth it to me as I think it was my fault for not being more careful. It isn't guaranteed to happen to you but if it does I wanted to share my experience. It will be ok I promise. I bought and use this in conjuction with the Mario Badescu Drying Lotion so I left the same review on both. I use them together based on another reviewer's suggestion so I can't rate them separately. That being said, oh my god this totally works. I was seriously blown away. I got a very unpleasant hormonal breakout of papules (blind pimples) on my chin during lady time and whenever I get them they take forever to go away because the infection is so far below the surface. To make matters worse anytime one went away another would show up. I had about 4 in the same spot and they were very painful. I really didn't want to spend that much on a product but the breakout had been there for weeks with no improvement from anything else I used and I was getting desperate. Below is a product description and how I used them. Buffering lotion - This product you can shake before application. Its a very thin, white liquid that's rated by Badescu as being better for Cystic Acne Drying lotion - DO NOT SHAKE. A lot of people have been making comments about how the product settles. Its supposed to and the directions clearly say do not shake it and to use a cotton swab to dip it in the "pink sediment" then apply. This product is rated as being better for whiteheads. For my routine I waited until the evening and cleaned my face then applied the buffering lotion to the blemishes with my fingers as the instructions said to do. I waited about a minute until that dried and then used a cotton swab to apply a bit of the drying lotion. I used the products for 5 days just to be sure but I could have stopped at 4. I now have NO blemishes anymore and I'm just working on getting rid of the pigmentation marks. Those I can deal with. I'm extremely happy with this products performance and I highly, highly recommend it. Here is a bit on the different types of blemishes because it can be confusing trying to figure out what you have (Correct me if I'm wrong. Its based on my own personal research.) Whitehead - Standard, unremarkable. Not inflamed. Just looks like a small spot of pus. Goes away quickly Blackhead - Open pore with oxidation causing it to look dark. Not inflamed. (These two products aren't designed for blackheads so I don't think it'd work on those.) Pustule - Inflamed whitehead. Infection at the surface but there's a lot of angry redness around the blemish Papule - Inflamed whitehead. Infection deep below the surface. Aka blind pimple. Its a closed comedone where the infection can't reach the surface. These can last weeks. They are hard to the touch and painful. Cystic Acne - Large, inflamed acne. It is one of the more severe types. It will feel soft the touch and be large in size. Rupture can cause spreading of the infection and lead to more outbreaks. Nodular Cystic Acne - The same as cystic acne but the infection is deeper under the skin and will be hard and painful the touch. Will not rupture but will not go away as Papules eventually do. The two types of Cystic Acne will likely need to be treated by a professional if severe. I'm not sure how these two products would work on small, minor Cystic Acne but its worth a try. Based on some of the other reviews this does work if its not very severe and all over the face. Note - Before you panic like I did and think your Papules are Nodular Cystic Acne, there is a difference and its size. Physically they feel the same but Papules are 1cm or less where as the Nodular acne is 1-5cm. Hope this helps! ... show more

    • Really nice product.
Style: 01 Drying Lotion Glass Bottle, 1 Fl oz
This is a great product. I have sensitive skin and I don't have any issues with it, just don't put it on a open wound/ pimple because it will sting. Also the smell is pretty strong-but once it drys you don't smell it anymore,
