I've been getting pimples from both hormonal and mask reasons, even when using pimple patches- they don't go away quickly. I got this spot cream in hopes of finding something that would work quickly instantly. I have come to love isntree products since the last yr, thus decided to purchase this! And I am happy to report that it has done wonders for my pimples. They are all tinier than before and look less red! I hope to include this in my overall skinc are routine now, still trying to find some more go-to products to use.
