Don’t recommend it

Doesn’t really help. Have to return it. I haven’t noticed any difference after using it multiple times a day

Reduced my strawberry skin

Actually reduced my strawberry skin, but I also exfoliated with a loofa so that helped, and also give a rest day to your skin after you use the product and exfoliate or else your KP, strawberry skin gets infalmmed, meaning it feels more bumpish, learned that the hard way.

The packaging needs work

4.5 stars due to the packaging, but it’s a great product. I put this in a small spray bottle and it’s so much better. I simply cannot use the bottle as is, the dripping is a literal sensory nightmare for me and the spray makes it go further. For $15 you get a big bottle. I notice when I stop using it my chest acne returns so I need to use it all the time in the summer now!

Not effective

Very thin formula and did not help with bumps at all

At first, I was reluctant to use this product because the application was extremely messy. I was pouring some on my hand and trying to cover bumpy areas of my skin. Sometimes I had too much product on my hand so it started lathering weirdly. I recently started using it again - this time, with a cotton pad. There's a visible reduction in the KP bumps on my upper arms. The rough texture is fully gone, and the I suppose the marks will also slowly fade over time. It took just 10 days to see results.

A must-have in your routine - use for face too!

I have fairly sensitive skin and I use this product on my face because normal 2% BHAs get irritating and this works like a charm! I love how it feels and doesn’t sting at all - it’s amazing for my face & body!!!

Doesn’t work for me

I’ve been using this product on and off for a few months on my arms and back. Various times I’ve noticed I will break out when using it. Not sure if it’s a due to when I wear before gym sessions or not
