I came in for something to cover up a huge knot on my face and took this as a flyer after I spent two days using my husband’s clearasil or CVS whatever that only served to p1ss it off more. Within one hour of using this JK product, my face was already less irritated. I took the direction “use as needed” liberally and applied about five more times that evening. The next morning the swelling was 75% gone. I used it the following day and it kept improving with some changes in color. Day 3, the redness was really reduced and on Day 4 my face was 95% back to normal. This product is worth the money - the drug store stuff doesn’t compare. I gave it to a couple of friends for Christmas who said it was “incredible” and I now keep it in my makeup bag full time. Definitely one of my best 2022 product purchases!
