## Description

Help clarify your complexion with Neutrogena Stubborn Blackheads Daily Acne Facial Serum. Designed for oily, acne-prone skin, this oil-free face serum from a dermatologist-recommended brand visibly clears clogged pores to help eliminate even stubborn breakouts and blackheads. Powered by a dermatologist-grade acid complex, the blackhead remover serum contains 5% glycolic acid, which exfoliates to help remove pore-clogging dirt, oil, and bacteria that can cause acne and blackheads. Other exfoliants--2.5% mandelic acid and 2.5% polyhydroxy acid—are included in our formula with salicylic acid to help prevent and clear up breakouts. A perfect addition to your acne prevention daily skincare routine, this facial serum is fragrance-free, paraben-free, oil-free, phthalate-free, dye-free, and sulfate-free. The lightweight blackhead serum is suitable for all skin tones, and should be layered under moisturizer or makeup. After cleansing, apply a thin layer of the salicylic acid serum to affected areas up to three times per day.

Review: Llevo años usando este producto y hasta ahora ha sido el único que me funciona para que la piel no esté tan grasosa pero sin secarla. El olor puede ser un poco extraño al inicio pero después de un minuto realmente ya no se nota.
Review: This stuff smells absolutely horrible, so if you're using it for your nose you're going to have a bad day... but it works so well that it's worth it in my opinion. I haven't experienced any of the negative issues that other people mentioned. Regarding chemical burns - I don't have sensitive skin, and I've only used it a max of once per day, and no issues so far. Cleared up my skin super quick as well so I'm only using it as needed vs daily. Regarding bleaching of pillow cases, I waited a minimum of 30 minutes before going to bed and haven't noticed any issues with discoloration of my pillow cases. (My pillow cases are black) So far I'm happy with my purchase.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: This product smells strange, almost like mildew. I'm wondering if that's normal or if I got a bad batch or something?**
A: Yes the smell of the product is bad but its not because there is something wrong with it. It is "unscented" so there are no chemical scents added to make it smell pretty.

**Q: Can I put this on after lotion and leave it on?**
A: Thank you for the questions, you wash your face or area applying. Dry area and apply small amounts leaves for indicated time on instructions ( everyone is different so allow a test on a small area before learning for long period) . You wash off and you should see results within a short period of time. I hope this helps you.

**Q: Can I use this on the entire face as exfoliant?**
A: This product is not an exfoliator. It's for acne and blackhead treatment.

**Q: Can I wear this under makeup?**
A: You can wear this product under your makeup, make sure you use sunscreen when your outside. I hope that help.
