Belli Skin Care - Acne Control Spot Treatment Clears Blemishes and Helps Prevent New Breakouts OB/GYN and Dermatologist Recommended 0.5 oz

Cleared my pregnancy acne, totally recommend.

Didn't like this product and don't don't help with the breakouts. Stick to the face wash which is well worth buying

I have awful hormonal acne in my pregnancies/a couple months into postpartum, so this pregnancy I decided to splurge and try this spot treatment. I took a picture from before I started this spot treatment to two months after using it. The bottle last me about 3.5 months, so a little goes a long ways. I do wish the bottle was bigger though. This spot treatment is definitely worth the price though!

Ladies! If you are struggling with pregnancy acne, you have to try this product. I was looking all over for a acne product that was safe to use during pregnancy. I stumbled upon this company and decided to try it out. It was one of the less pricier options that I had found, but I didn't want to spend a ton on something that I didn't know if it would work or not. I was slightly skeptical when I opened the box and saw how small the bottle was but went into after that with an open mind. I have only been using the product for about a week now and I have already seen such a difference in my skin. The smell is not the best, but I'll take the smell over acne any day. I was feeling so down about myself because of how bad my jaw line was breaking out, but this product is saving me from that. Totally recommend this product.

The cream itself is good and works for me. I am not pregnant but people who have found that the usual suspects for acne fighting active ingredients (benzoyl peroxide, salycilic acid) don't work for them may want to try this, as the active ingredient is sulphur (and in the companion face wash, is lactic acid). The smell of sulphur does not particularly bother me and I find it unnoticeable once it is absorbed into my skin, but clearly others are more sensitive. That's something to keep in mind if you are sensitive to smells because the only way to not smell sulphur in your skincare is to use a product without it. This product (along with cutting dairy out of my diet) helped clear up my adult acne which had previously resisted about $1200 in light treatments, peels and other professional dermatological services/Dr. visits. The cream itself is 5 stars. The packaging is 1 star: *Annoying and expensive* - it is incredibly aggravating over the old pliable tubes they used to have and it smacks of price gouging. Originally the price went from $12 for the tube to $21 for the pump with the same 0.5 oz inside. It's since been lowered to $17 (or so, perhaps depending on the seller), which still represents a stable, near-50% increase in price JUST FOR PACKAGING. *Wasteful and unhygienic* - The pump stops delivering product when there is about 1/3rd of the cream left in the bottle, so that you have to unscrew the top to ketchup-bottle-smack it out, inevitably delivering a huge glop into your hand. I scrape the excess off my hand and back into the bottle, and though my hands are clean, clearly this is not as hygienic as using the pump. *Not travel-friendly* - The pump takes up valuable space in my 311 bag, about the same amount of space as 2-3 of the old tubes. The empty bottle weighs 1.5 oz all by itself versus the old tubes that weighed virtually nothing. When embarking on travel of a couple of weeks or longer or traveling on budget European airlines, it is important to review these things when you consider that a T shirt or thin swim cover up might only weigh 3oz. I use 1-2 pumps twice a day, and the half ounce lasts me 2-3 weeks. When embarking on travel longer than that, I'm forced to decant the cream into a travel tube, which is made difficult by the aforementioned pump issue. The last time I tried to bring a full ounce with me on vacation, I was left with 3 partly empty bottles after the pumps stopped delivering product. *Suggestion for Belli* If you guys are listening, please consider reverting to the old packaging or perhaps offering a 1oz size in a small lightweight tube. I would personally be fine paying $20 for that.

I started using this product about four years ago when I began getting acne during my pregnancy, and I honestly haven’t stopped since. It works fast. Anytime I feel a breakout coming on, I apply it to my problem areas at night and by morning my skin is either completely clear or the spot is barely there—easy to cover with makeup and totally unnoticeable. I’ve used this consistently through both of my pregnancies, postpartum, and now just as part of my routine because I love it that much. It’s also amazing for those random travel breakouts when your skin decides to act up out of nowhere. It does dry out the skin a bit, but that’s an easy fix—I just layer a serum over it or apply one the following morning and I’m good to go. As for scent, if there is one, I’ve never noticed it. You truly can’t beat the value for how effective this is. It’s been a staple in my skincare routine for years, and I don’t see that changing anytime soon.

Here are my results after 26 days of using this product! I had acne before pregnancy but as soon as I got pregnant my hormones went wild leaving my face with horrible acne. I started researching acne products that were safe for pregnancy and I stumbled upon the Belli skincare line. I used the face wash, the spot treatment, and a facial scrub and it has worked miracles for my skin! I will continue using this product even after pregnancy! The pictures on the left shows my skin the night I ordered this product, I only have some minimal acne left (and unfortunately some acne scars) which I’m sure the product will take care of. The only thing that I do not like about this specific product was the sulfur like smell, which I’m able to deal with since it’s helping my skin tremendously!
