Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great stuff I tried this for the first time as I've been fighting acne discoloration and was recommended something with niacinamide. I have a combination skin and break out often due to stress, hormones, air pollution... I've been using this for almost two weeks now and I am already noticing early effects where my skin has calmed down a lot and became a lot smoother. I try not to stress out my skin too much, so I follow this with some argan oil at night and in the morning my skin looks fresh and soft. It will take a little longer for the discoloration to even out, but I am happy with the purchase so far as this little bottle will go a long way.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Good but not perfect I’m in the sad position of experiencing early ageing symptoms and adult acne now I’m in my early thirties and one year postpartum. I have classic combination skin - dry cheeks, oily t-zone. This sinks into my skin quickly without feeling too sticky or oily. I’m still getting blackheads, the odd pimple and cystic acne (defo hormonal, around the chin) but I would say my skin looks healthy in the morning after applying at night. It’s just after a day’s worth of make up that it tends to look tired and congested again. About to start my second bottle as I love this brand and want it to work!

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Great product! This has cleared my skin up within two weeks. Calmed and clear. Slightly sticky to start with but sinks in quickly to allow for a moisturiser on top.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Perseverance is key I’ve struggled with breakouts around my nose and mouth for about 6 months since changing medication. I bought this for a try as I like the effaclar duo products.. not much change using it every other day as other reviews said so I switched to using it twice a day and after 6 weeks of consistent use my stubborn breakouts have completely cleared up. Don’t expect an overnight miracle, you have to build it into your routine. It hasn’t made my skin dry and it’s not sticky at all. Definitely worth the price tag, and I will be repurchasing.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Works for me I've had acne for most of my teenage years and tried lots of products. When I found this serum I genuinely saw good results and now I always have a bottle incase I get a flare up. I don't use it everyday, just when I need it. I think it is very dependent on your skin type, but for me it seems to work. Would recommend if you're struggling to find something that works.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Miracle! I have suffered with terrible hormonal acne for years! Nothing was working for me even after going to the doctors. I find that this really works! It helps stop new spots from getting bigger and they’re usually gone the next day and any spots that I do get they are going away so much faster than before! My skin is horrible at healing after a spot so this is a miracle!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Wondrous This stuff is liquid gold. It's completely changed my skin - I now rarely get cystic hormonal acne, the redness I thought might be rosacea has decreased massively and I'm now confident leaving the house make up free which I haven't been in years. I've been recommending it to friends ever since starting. The only negative I've found is that my noise is slightly shinier so I avoid my noise most nights and only use it there once a week. Suspect that's just a me thing though so I wouldn't let it put you off!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great results This is easy to apply, sinks in quickly and has smoothed my skin and cleared some blocked pores. I used it every night for a week and it didn't dry me out or cause redness. I'm now alternating with the LRP retinol serum and my skin has improved loads

Hello, Is this ok for sensitive skin?  also, can I use this 2-3 times a week when I do not use my retinol, as I use 0.1% retinol?

Hiya, Can this be used with retinol?

Asked by: Anonymous
It contains salicylic acid which is a BHA (chemical exfoliant) so not a good match with retinol due to risk of irritation
