Olay has a product called clear acne protocal 3 step, try using this instead of olay exfoliating renewal.

I can only speak for my results, but I have had AMAZING results with this product (when used with the accompanying electronic brush). I have battled acne for years and years, but nothing has produced quicker and more consistent results than this. I have read that the reason this tool works so well, is two mechanisms: clearing away the dead skin cells/blockages that create acne, and allowing other beauty creams and medicines to work better by getting direct access to the surface of your skin. I also use a salicylic acid BB cream during the day (Dream Pure BB by Maybelline) In the beginning I did see some redness, but I think that can be easily managed by using the tool every other day, or perhaps being less aggressive when cleaning. I have also used this on my chest and back and have seen similar fantastic results there. Good luck!

I don't have that issue, so Im sorry, I can't answer that question. However, I would try it. I've learned that with skin issues, it's all trial and error. I love this product, it's the only thing that works for me in keeping my skin clear. I use it with the clarisonic electronic brush skin cleaner to unclog pores. I bet that would work for you!

You can use it on any type of acne. For myself it has reduced my acne. I can't promise it will disappear because every now and then I do get a few pimples here and there but it's okay because they aren't severe and yes you can use a wash cloth. People say to only rub the soap on your body but I prefer scrubbing my face and body. I only ever rub my body with the soap about twice a week just to give it a break. However, I believe whether it works or not depends on your skin, it's sensitivity and everything. It's all about how your body responds to it more than anything. If you read other reviews, some people find that it didn't works for them while most find it has. I believe it's more on body chemistry because no one person is the same. I hope this helped.

My husband bought this for me. It's great and my skin has cleared up a lot now that I'm not using brushes with bacteria. I don't think there is a difference and I have zero complaints. :)

I would say it DOES help even your skin tone among other things. My cheeks and jawline were burdened with acne and acne blemishes. I barely noticed results when using this as a Mask 1x/wk basis, and even 2x/wk. This week, I used this as a nightly "Rinse", and now my face is almost blemish-free. I already use a konjac sponge to exfoliate my skin, then apply the clay (mixed with a few add-ins). I keep the clay on no more than five minutes, rinse, then moisturize. I did this for seven nights in a row, and WOW. What I looked like the Monday before I started this is pretty damn yucky compared to what I look like by the next Monday morning. I wish I had thought to try this sooner. I would say it DOES help even your skin tone among other things. My cheeks and jawline were burdened with acne and acne blemishes.

I would have to say yes. I am 33 and I deal with adult acne. I use this everyday, and it is mild. It will last for a long time too!

It will prob help but depends on your skin type. I used a spa kit to help with my acne scars. Note I have not tried this production yet but I have with dermarollers.

It does work very well if its not to bad. Try using it with a scrub brush. it works for me.

It shouldn't, but remember that this is a serum and you only need to put on a small amount. A little goes a long way. It has some oils but they should not aggravate acne. Don't buy it here, go to Essential Wholesale's website where you can get 16 ounces for the same price and its the exact same product!

Yes, definitely (I just double-checked). Here's the thing though: You have to use it *Every Day*. If you do you will be Amazed at how AWESOME, how Smooth, how Clear Your Skin Looks! However, if you slack off (use less than 4 to 7 times a week) It'll flare up again. Guaranteed. [btw: you need only Cleanse once daily using a mild, o.t.c., good facial cleanser) (Slough skin once per week with a (gentje version) Buf-Puf and your o.t.c. cleanser) and apply a Thin Layer of Effaclar Duo all over your face. A little goes a long way and the price is absolutely worth it p.s. re: the "worth it" part --- this is coming from a single mom of teenage triplets so you know I'm careful w/ how I spend money!

I wouldn't recommend it, you're using a moisturizer with it and whatever the one of your choice will pull the makeup off or, at the least run it. I've noticed no change in spots on my face. I hope this has helped you.

That's what I heard, but honestly it doesn't make that much of a difference lol I ended up buying the brush later on, but the brush was so soft that it seriously doesn't make a difference when applying it by hand. Also the shopping for the brush is so now worth it lol so just stick with applying it by hand, well if you like

Its better that u keep using it for a while to make sure the acne is not comming back and if you want the product to clear your skin you really have to use it for a long time cause you dont see the results inmediatlly. U dont need to rinse the product, u just apply it with clean skin and leave it all the time you want.

I use it on specific spots at the first sign of acne and it dries it up quick or keeps it from forming. For existing really bad acne I apply directly to them up to 2x a day (a few mins each time) and they are usually gone with in 2 days max. I usually only use it all over my face if I'm going to do glycolic after. Over all it works really well for me. I highly recommended. Start out slow tho... don't over do it and protect your face from the sun while using. Good luck!

You might like Bump Patrol Shaving gel. It seems to clear my acne up somewhat. I buy mine on Walmart.com for half the price. I'm a white male and white men use Bump Patrol. Great stuff.

Like the acne left marks in your skin? I don't know to be honest. It really is just for discoloration. It helped with the dark spots acne left on my skin. It did a tremendous jjob. But for actual indentation? You would have to try it. It helps if your skin is so oily its causing acne as well. But make sure to moisturize because it will dry your skin out. I hope I sorta helped :)

I found it didn't do much for whiteheads or black heads but it calmed down any irritation small acne gave me. It made my skin more even looking and smoother but there were still pimples on my face.
