Burt's Bee Natural Acne Solutions Targeted Spot Treatment review

I LOVE THIS!!! I've tried a lot of acne treatment products but this is definitely the best that I've ever tried. This is my 3rd bottle!!!
 
 
This is 100% NATURAL (Natural Products Association certified). I love the fact that it is natural :D
It is a acne treatment that contains salicylic acid(0.75%) derived naturally from willow bark extract which contains natural beta hydroxy acids, which acts as a skin exfoliator to help unclog pores.
It is also formulated with Tea Tree, Calendula, Yarrow, and Parsley Extracts to help calm and reduce redness while Borage Extract promotes healthy skin.
 
 
what it claimed
- Clinically proven to help reduce the appearance of blemishes in 48 hours
- Non-irritating
- Soothes skin and reduces redness
- Noncomedogenic
 
It basically does what it claimed but for the "48hours", it depends on the acne. For huge and cystic acnes, it might need much longer time. For my own experiences, huge and cystic acnes took up to 1 week to disappear, sometimes longer. For normal acnes or pimples, it will takes 2-3days. ANYWAY, the important point is IT WORKS! (well, for me, hehe, everyone is different)
I had sensitive and serious acne skin problems and I tried so many products, some worked for a little while, some even make my skin worst! but this works the best so far!
Yuan soap and this spot treatment were the main products that helped me to get rid of my horrible acnes!
 
It does not make my skin dry so I can actually apply this right before my makeup and it wont cause any effect such as cakey or makeup doesn't stick on to my skin. It absorbs super quick!
*oh, don't use cotton swabs to apply this, use your clean fingertip or else you'll waste the product!*
 
Ingredients:
Active Ingredient: Salicylic Acid (0.75%) Inactive Ingredients: alcohol denat., citrus medica limonum (lemon) peel oil, water, calendula officinalis flower extract, achillea millefolium (yarrow) extract, borago officinalis (borage) extractcarum petroselinum (parsley) extract, foeniculum vulgare (fennel) fruit oil, salix nigra (willow) bark extract, melaleuca alternifolia (tea tree) leaf oil, eucalyptus globulus leaf oil, juniperus communis fruit oil.
 
Price: RM78 at Burt's Bee store (Price might be different at Sephora, I bought it at RM69 but not sure if they increased the price recently because Burt's Bee store increased the price to RM78 from RM68)
 
Repurchase? Definitely!!! 5STARS for this!

Yuan Soap review - Lemon

YUP YUP YUP~ another Yuan Soap review! haha :D

 
This is actually a repurchase. I finished the 1st one and it's soooo good that I have to repurchase this! 
I finished it during my exam week, it took me 2 weeks to go to the mall(I bought this at midvalley) to repurchase it, had breakouts without this :'(

So, lets get in to the topic!


Lemon soap is for oily skin with large pores.
what it claimed
- brightens skin by removing old/dead skin cells
- tightens pores
- lightens pigmentation
- control sebum production

well... it does what it claimed! or else I wouldn't get another one XD
I noticed that it brightens my skin and my acne scars are less visible now. I have large and clogged pores especially at my nose and cheeks area (I believed that a lot of people are having the same problems), I noticed that my skin is getting better.

However, I don't recommend this to acne skin, but if you have acne-prone skin (like me), maybe you can give it a try :) Because you might want to solve your acne problem first then only you switch to this, just like I did. Normally I will change my skincare when my skin's condition changed.

I also don't recommend this to dry skin.

This soap will be great for people that stay in hot and humid places and need a refreshing soap (like me, in Malaysia =.= HOT! HOT! HOT! )
