"so i&#039;ve been on aczone for 3 full days now, and i know that&#039;s not long but i&#039;m really impressed with this stuff! i had a sudden and embarrassing breakout on my chin/mouth area from switching to another oral birth control (instead of large cystic acne it was tiny red breakouts everywhere) and i saw an ad for this so i decided to give it a try. immediately the next say i saw it was drying a few pimples! on day 3, id say half my acne is healing or gone. i&#039;m hoping a week from now my acne will be mostly gone. it can be drying but not anything crazy. i use the 5% gel in the morning and at night, along with my cetaphil cleanser. i don&#039;t use lotion at night but in the morning i use philosophy clear days ahead lotion and some makeup. i&#039;ll update!"
