The product I'm going to review in this post has received plenty of mixed reviews, from my research. So basically I bought this product on a limb. Sephora has the most incredible return policy ever, so I figured (since they were sold out of my beloved Origins, waaa) I would give it a go! Normally I wouldn't be one to spend 27$ on a product I've never gotten to test, but like I said, Sephora has their incredible return policy so I figured I would try it out!

First thing to be known about this product is that despite what it may look like you are NOT to shake it. Basically the product is separated into two (noticeable) parts. The top part is just a clear liquid, and the bottom part is a pink liquid, the good stuff. The top part is only there to keep the bottom part (the sulphur treatment) solidified. So whatever you do, do not shake this! It's meant to look that way.
To use this product, first I wash my face like normal, apply toner then apply moisturizer. Then what you do is grab a clean cotton swab and dip it straight into the product, all the way down so it touches the pink. Then you lightly dab at any blemishes you have. Since the sulphur treatment is no longer with the water it will dry up once in contact with your skin, thus drying out the blemish. This is recommended as a PM treatment seeing as you are to have pink dots on your face for hours on end. So, apply the treatment, go to sleep, wake up and voila! ..well, not quite.
On the blemishes I tried the product on, they seemed to be gone completely after three applications. No scaring, nothing. I was told you would notice results after one use. I however, did not. This kind of turned me off of the product, but I decided to continue since I had nothing to lose. I'm glad I did! After two more applications (two more nights) the blemishes were gone completely with no marks behind. It was like magic!
That being said, I think you need to have patience in order to use this product. But if you have the money to spend, or a great return policy, I'd definitely give it a shot. It doesn't work for everyone, but if it works, it really works.
