My face erupted with cystic acne

Let me start off by saying I really, REALLY wanted to like this product. I love japanese skincare, you get a lot of product for your money, the bottle is adorable, and this had such great reviews. I was ecstatic to find this product and get all the bang for my buck! I received it, opened it and was immediately put off by the smell (smells like straight sake) but I'm not one to get hung up on scents (if it works, it works, regardless of smell). I used it for about a week and I will honestly say my skin felt awsome! Baby smooth and definitely looked more radiant. But after that first week was went it went downhill. Cystic acne started to pop up along my cheekbones. I brushed it off as a period bump (monthly was coming soon) but then I started to get more, on my chin and my forehead. I thought well..they say your skin gets worse before it gets better, so I continued using it. About 2 weeks later my face had completely erupted in cystic acne. I had lumps under my skin from more trying to make their way to the surface, and my face was sensitive to the touch because they were so painful! It took me about a month of using my tried and true products to correct what this product did to my face. I saw a lot of great reviews of this product and I was really hoping i would have the same experience with it (considering my skin is no where near sensitive and the only time I have a pimple is when its close to my monthly), but my skin absolutely hates this! Maybe it works for some people, but this product and my skin are NOT a match for each other.
