| bluelily's Full Review: Clearasil Vanishing Cream |
Advertisement: The highest concentration available 10% benzoyl peroxide is in this light, disappearing cream that heals pimples fast. Use as a spot treatment on an existing pimple or wherever you see a blemish forming.Dries up and helps heal pimples quickly, soaks up excess oil,dermatologist-tested face and body acne-fighting formula. Clinically proven to clear up and help prevent pimples. 10% benzoyl peroxide acne medication, the medicated formula is clinically proven to be effective.Nothing you can buy without a prescription is stronger than the 10% benzoyl peroxide in Clearasil. Clears up pimples fast, and helps prevent new pimples from forming. Absorbs excess oil.
Here we go again with false advertising! Vanishing cream? Toothpaste could vanish as well as this stuff- it would look the same, too! It does absolutely nothing it claims to do.It comes in .65 and 1oz bottles.It even leaves white spots on your face! I found Clearasil's vanishing cream not worth my money. It dries up the pimple but that doesn't mean the pimple is going away! It can sting and leave red marks on your face that are worse than the pimple to begin with. It made my skin dry and flaky even with use of a moisturizer. When my skin gets overly dry oil starts to come out in order to combat the dryness. The pimple stays, it makes your skin dry, it can leave red marks worse than the initial problem- there's nothing I can find that is positive about this product. You can find much more effective home remedies to dry out your pimples! Don't bother wasting your money on this product. You definitely shouldn't buy it if you have dry, normal. or sensitive skin. I bought this product in hopes of blemish control and I found were white flakes on my shirt. I don't recommend this product to anyone. It irritates the skin and makes the pimple worse. Ingredients: Benzoyl Peroxide 10% Inactive Ingredients:Water,PropyleneGlycol,Bentonite,AluminumHydroxide,Glyceryl Stearate Se,Peg-12,Isopropyl Myristate, Carbomer,Potassium Hydroxide,Methylparaben,Propylparaben.
