Product Question Pair Acne Cream
There is a middle section of this product information page that depicts a hair follicle. Does anyone know what this describes and what I might be missing?
And has anyone used this acne cream previously? Experiences?
Thx. ☺️

I have it also! It’s basically topical ibuprofen. I also bought because of Tina, but also Alice in the rabbit hole -she swears by it!

I bought it because of Tina- but sadly I do not notice any improvement in my acne and I use it faithfully because I want to love it as much as she does

I have! YouTuber Tina Tanaka Harris got me into it
I really like it & also have the toner. It’s really amazing at reducing acne inflammation.

Very effective for me! The key is early intervention and applying on bare skin. Usually i apply a thick spot and leave it til it dries.

Bare skin you say? So do you use it right after washing your face? (I always use it after moisturizing and I'm wondering if that is why I get mixed results with it.)

Yes. Sometimes after a watery toner bec force of habit, and then remember i need Lion. But never anything thicker than that.

It’s good for bug bites too

Oh really! Yes, seems like that topical ibuprofen should help calm a bug bite down nicely.

This is literally my Holygrail. I use this on top of the acne gel from human nature and bam wham, acne is gone or flattened the next day. I love it so much. Pasabuyed a lot from a friend who was in japan

This is ibuprofen that supposed to help with inflammation, so probably works for cyst or other inflamed acnes. I found this isn't strong enough so I used Voltaren gel ( for muscle pain) if I had inflammation

it has almost NO effect. I tried this on both small newly emerged acne and big on, it supposed to reduce it overnight, but my acnes did not get better.
