ive used it before, didnt work for me, just tried up my skin :s-smilie: but i heard it works for some people
I used it - it was brilliant! Although make sure to dry (after a wash) before application.
Never helped me, but mine was severe I had to go on Roaccutane in the end. The only topical medication thats ever worked for me is Differim, but I think it's prescription only
It does work, but to be effective it needs to be used consistantly, and all over your face, not just the affected areas.

It is benzoyl peroxide in disguise (aka your putting acid on your face)

nice, thats my face, do you think i need something more severe or Quinoderm could work just fine ?


I would say quinoderm would be overkill tbh, I can count your spots on one hand lol. Clearisil and all that stuff would probably be fine for you unless you are really bothered by it.
I think before you start anything you should consult you doctor and check with them. Then try some out you have nothing to loose, however your face dosent look that bad :smile:

Get a ferrero rocea and scrub it where your spots are.

anyone else had experien ce with this ?
If you get a lemon and scrub it over the spots overnight for about 1 week, the spots will fade. Alternatively use organic apple cider vinegar from any super market. Natural remedies are always the best.

so i bought it, and applied it 5 hours ago, i don't get how people moan and whine about the dryness and how it stings, cos I DO not feel anything at ALL, and i put a decent amount , anyway, i hope it works

I have been using it for a couple of weeks now and its really good. I don't find it stings or dries out my skin.. although too be honest i apply a moisturises every day/night anyway so that should sort that out. My housemate uses it too and she says it stings so must depend on skin. i would personally recommend it.

It's quite effective, downside was for me the heavy smell of sulphur, (topical drying out agent).

Derm put me on Roaccutane, skin is now brilliant.
He quite likes Quinoderm, but there are better topical applications.
