I'm pretty new to this product but already after just two days after perchasing, it seems to have cleard up what could have been a potentially really angry spot forming under the skin. Very pleased to see it's working before I even see a spot properly appear. I also used it on a lumpy spot which cleared itself but stayed raised (for weeks) under the skin and this is dissapearing by the minute. Have used it on smaller spots too and although in two days using it day and night it has reduced any bumpiness, the redness hasn't gone from these and because it's so drying it may actually have made that worse, though not to any major extent that I would discontinue to use it. I would also say that although the product is clear it does leave a very thin film where applied, I can only describe it as looking a little 'cling filmy' in certain light where it's tightened the skin, so would reccomend using a little concealer in the day if you are comfortable wearing make-up. I suspect there is a partiularly high concentration of salicylic acid, amoungst other chemicals and as I would rather chose natural products on my skin I am careful only to use 'Spot Remover' when and where I absolutely need it. Lots of people have mentioned the smell being unpleasent but I actually don't think it's that bad at all. Granted it is an odd combination of medicated and natural scents, though in my opinion certainly not a reason to not buy. Pricewise it is expensive at 10 but when you think about in relation to how much you need to use (a small dot of the gell on the affected area)it isn't really that extortionate. One other positive is that it's not in girly packaging so men shouldn't feel embarressed to buy over the counter. As I said I'm new to this product but am very pleased with the results so far and if my skin continues to improve in this way I will definitely be purchasing more in the future.

This stuff really works well on the huge pimples that start to form under the skin, as long as you can put it on there before they're too far along. It doesn't work as well on some of the smaller pimples, though. But, the big ones are the worst anyway and anything that will help them is worth the price!

this product works well. i had a major brake out three days before the first day of school. by the end of the second day it had subsided. by tuesday it was almost gone. i kept using it and it is great. it dries up those terrible red spots that are never really a pimple and really works. it does sting a little, but that means its working! and, like all of origins stuff, it smells weirdly botanical.

I had a huge pimple on my nose and it started working within hours of applying. This stuff is not cheap but 3oz does go a long way.

this is no good, it just keeps pealing my skin. did't work as much as i pay for.

It kinda stung. The Origins told me it would clear up in a day or two but it took longer. It dried up my skin.

This crazy stuff works but it burns like a bitch. It is good for emergencies like one hot date, but it really dries out your skin and makes it all peely and nasty. It smells kinda' funky too. But it usually gets the job done, especially on those nasty big old zits.

I found this item to be very effective for bigger spots. It stings, but it basically does the job. You have to be careful how much you use, and how often because it can really dry out your skin. I've had some really dry, flaky patches from using it too much. It also shouldn't be used for small pimples, because it doesn't do much.

This treatment works pretty well. It STINGS. Then it leaves scars because it might be TOO strong for your face. It's $10 for a really small bottle.

Absolutely works. Also, the product has a great smell. The bottle is kewl too. O', I need to mention the great marketing; when you buy an Origins product, a person really feels like they have made a purchase, something nice for him/herself.

This product works really well. I can see the difference within one day. Not that many products have these kind of results. You can actually feel it working, which is good. Gives you that satisfaction.

Origins Spot Remover is a bit on the expensive side for such a small size but it is well worth it! The vial has the power to combat the blemishes while they are still under your skin. As for a preventative measure you would need to use the mint wash.

My best friend told me it was the greatest thing ever! I used it, it was fairly good, dried out my blemish. Expensive product!
