Blemish Defeat’r BHA Spot-Targeting Gel

CLEARS SKIN SO WELL

this product is so good. i use it at night, never in the morning because it’ll peel. it works so good though oh my word. i tell you i literally watched my blemishes fade away. i put it on, dried my hair then i look at my skin and liks holy moly my skin was so clear i could use it as the mirror (not like that clearc but a difference was made)

Not suitable with make-up

Not fit for use. I bought this to wear under my foundation as advertised in the description, but it performs terribly. Every time I apply my make-up on top of this product, my face looks like it’s peeling, even after waiting up to 1 hour for it to dry.

It works if you use it properly. Thin layer BEFORE moisturizer. Apply moisturizer after the gel dries fully. Then do moisturizer, then makeup. Apply lightly and evenly. Let dry. Then moisturizer It

It peel off so bad with make up on top, unfortunately couldn’t return it on time.

Repurchased Twice!

I LOVE this product! I’ve repurchased twice and it’s excellent for spot treatment. The texture is great and I love the component. It always significantly clears up breakouts for me by the next morning! reduced

A great product with a bit of a learning curve

This stuff is AMAZING—honestly, I think it outperforms the similar French product (the Fenty applicator is certainly more sanitary). Sometimes stubborn whiteheads or lingering blemishes just need a little help, and this delivers. It not only flattens problem areas but also creates a smooth surface that sits beautifully under makeup. That said, there is a learning curve. For best results, apply a very thin, even layer over the area and keep your face completely still until it dries fully. Ensure the area is CLEAN first (I apply my moisturizer, then swipe back over areas to cover with micellar and hypochlorus). Rushing the application step or moving your face too soon will compromise the finish. Once it’s dry, apply makeup gently over it. If you’re too agressive with the product or makeup application, you’re probably going to have a bad time. Pro tip: wipe off the applicator after each use and wipe again with 70% ethanol to keep it in great condition.

NEED as a barrier for makeup to PREVENT ACNE

My forehead breaks out when I wear foundation or concealer. But I wear makeup to cover up the hyperpigmentation left behind by the acne. It does not matter what foundation/concealer I try or how clean my brushes/sponge are. So I started applying this all over my forehead, almost like a thin layer of primer, then spot color correcting and spot concealing my dark spots. I do not apply any makeup near the "edges" of where I applied the product, or else it will start to peel up. Then I just set it with powder. Since doing this, I have gotten no new acne flares and can still cover up the hyperpigmentation! Its a win-win!

Peels my makeup off.

It is amazing on its own. Works so well. But it is advertised to work under moisturiser and makeup. When i applied it i waited for it to dry before putting moisturiser on top, i wanted for that to dry then did my makeup. No less than an hour later, where i put the treatment it started peeling. I love the formulae but that needs to be fixed and the fact that it is advertised to work well under makeup when it in-fact takes it off.

Not just for pimples, use to cover scar

I use this to very nicely cover a scar and then can easily put powder foundation over it with a powder brush. Use a blowdryer to dry it. Stays on all day without peeling. When I don’t need to cover it, I use silicone to continue to fade the scar.

I get it but I shouldn’t have

I tried to love this but the formula was very flaky and dry. I have acne and would put it over spots and it made it look more obvious.

Could be better

Application is easy, the formula is nice, doesn’t feel like it’s clogging. But even when following the directions it will still peel off.

I wanted this to work but it didn’t

I used it as directed, and within 30min-1 1/2hrs later it would already be peeling off my skin (even whenever it dries immediately and I’m about to put primer/foundation over top it starts curling outwards). You’re better off just using a pimple patch.
