This product is extremely effective especially when you use it just as you feel that a pimple is lurking beneath the skin. i felt one on my nose just before it appears, and used it consecutively for 2-3 nights, and it totally killed it! As for those pimples that has already appear it does quicken the healing process. I like to use it together with benzoyl peroxide for those. apply a thin layer of benzoyl peroxide then this product. that area will be dry and flaky, no biggie, just exfoliate! All in all, it's an inexpensive great product.
After 15 years I finally have clear skin

I have had acne since I was 11 years old. I am now 26 and have tried every product I could afford to get my hands on with no luck. I've used every drugstore brand up to ProActive and even Dermologica.
I ordered this product with the same wishful thinking I always have when trying something new. I was so surprised when it actually WORKED. I haven't had clear skin in 15 years, and for me, this stuff is amazing.
I use it before I go to bed, applying it with a clean q-tip.
My only wish is that the bottle were more travel friendly (it comes in a glass bottle).
I'm still shocked that my skin has cleared up in such a short amount of time after all these years.
Proactive is much better

I've started buying more things on line lately an I've yet to rate anything, UNTIL now. I bought this months ago--such a disappointment! Tonight I'm shopping Folica (love Folica) and happened to see it again, and I remember that useless little pink bottle of Bye-Bye I purchased...
It's no good. I thought it would be special. It cannot be shaken. It sounds different. It's nothing special. It doesn't work. I repeat: it doesn't work. It's thick and gooey, and if you have acne, anything that puts a thick load of pink goo on your face is not going to help clear up a thing. DO NOT RISK IT. I tried mine 3x...wish I could send mine to u before you waste your $$. I'm about to throw it away. If I hadn't spent so much I wouldn't done so sooner.
OMG, THIS STUFF WORKED IN UNDER AN HOUR!

This morning i woke up with a giant red zit directly in the center of my forehead. I freaked out but luckily, i found my Folica package waiting for me at work and remembered i had ordered some of this stuff to try it out.
I have used Mario Badescu's drying lotion before and it worked like a charm. In hopes of having the same results, I applied Bye Bye Blemish to my newly developed embarrassment along with some others that I've had and in less than one hour the areas are clearer than they've ever been in this past month! The zit i woke up to this morning is GONE, I still can't believe it!
However, in all honesty, I understand that not every product works for everyone, but everyone should not second guess themselves about purchasing this product! I'm a huge fan of benzoyl peroxide, it is the only ingredient that works on my skin but now i can say i have something better.
reallyyyyy good

i am using it tonight for the first time in a long time but from my previous experiences with this product was that it was rlly good it dries up my skin yes and had a nasty smell to it but the next day half of my acne was gone and thats a good feeling u might have to wash some leftover excess from it the nest day but it workd and also when i used it i noticed and felt that it burnt my skin especially whenever a new one came but metaphorically speakin i think it literally is burnin that sucker away but it did wonders for me if u have mild acne this will work amazing for you but if u have severe acne get ready for burnin maybe i never had severe acne so i wudnt know what happens but hey it might work if u used everything like me why not give it a chance it may be ur miracle worker
it helped....so far

THE BEST PRODUCT FOR SENSITIVE SKIN!!!

Bar none, this is the best product I have ever tried. I am highly allergic to so many things, from soaps, creams, sprays, to blemish treatments.
I have tried nearly all the brands out there, including some unwell known brands that the doctor prescribes, and I have found so far, NOTHING that works this well. I wish this product existed when I was a teenager. Maybe I would not have hid behind my hair so much.
I stand by this product 100%. It works so well, without any of the issues that other products have. Other products do work sure, but what's the final result? For me it was itching like I had a case of poison ivy!
The only issue I had with this product was the drying out skin, but if you use it before you go to bed, wash up in the morning, and then moisturize you're good to go! I wear this stuff under my concealer at times, but I've rarely ever needed to wear any concealer/foundation. I just spot on a bit of ByeBye Blemish Drying Lotion, and I'm good to go!! It also hides redness well, unlike most foundations, when flashes of cameras would expose your flaws.
I wish they sold this product locally still, but I cannot find it anywhere, anymore. ;( I don't have pictures on my computer right now, but I do have a few before and afters. I'll post them another day.

amazing. i had a horrible case of adult acne, and trying to cover up my myriad of blemishes led to lots of blackheads and whiteheads (foundation overload!!). This cleared up the larger blemishes as well as unclogged my pores. LOVE LOVE LOVE. To all the people who said it smelled bad, I can only say this: its 10% sulfur. What the heck did you expect it to smell like? Sulfur medications have been the only thing that cleared up my face, and I have had dermatologists prescribe sulfur meds, and I couldn't afford a derm visit right now, and I LOVE LOVE LOVE that I could buy this without paying a ridiculous amount of money for a dermatologist to prescribe it. Yeah my pillows smell like sulfur and my face smells like sulfur, and my jewelry is tarnishing (did anyone else have this problem? I have a chemistry degree, so I'm not very suprised), but having clear skin is worth it (one less thing to worry about!).
It really works

If you have acne and need a quick fix once the pimple has formed, you have to try this. I really works when used correctly. I have tried and I am still trying things to help keep me from getting pimples, but nothing has worked or is working. But this stuff works, when I get a pimple I put it on and I never gets gigantic and inflammed and goes away in 1-3 days.
DONT SHAKE THE BOTTLE AND DIP... IT WORKS

People on here say it didnt work for them... it could be because they shook the bootle... dont shake the bottle, dip the Qtip and spread all over your face or an area and your pimples go away.... I developed a bad case of adult acne lately and I tried everything, i put this product on and was amazed the next day....
Best thing I've found...

I even get acne from other anti-acne products. Just about everything I put on my skin causes breakouts. This product is the only thing that has worked for me, prescription or over the counter.
Do not get this!

I bought it and I found it smells and dries out the skin to where it is noticeable and rough. It did not work at all.
It works

It works. It's easy. And, it doesn't have the potential complications of oral antibiotics. That's all I'm going to say because if I say more everyone will want to buy it and the price will go up.:)

I am an adult who sometimes breaks out on the face area. I have bought many over the counter acne treatments but they are too harsh on my face leaving my face red or irritated. Bye Bye blemish is gentle and has a mild scent. It has helped and I would buy it again before buying any other acne treatment product. There is plenty of it in the bottle just use a small dab with a cotton swab and dab it on the break outs. Nice product.

This product works so well that if I put it on a blemish as it just appears, it is dry and healing by the next morning. It works GREAT and I would recommend it to anyone who just doesn't get these results from other OTC products available.
works well

great alternative to benzoyl peroxide

As someone who has had broken-out, oily skin most of my life, the prescription medication is the only thing that really works for me. I wouldn't suggest treating this drying lotion as an alternative to a treatment plan suggested by a dr. It's much too harsh.
However, it is great for occasional blemishes, like hormonal flare-ups. I'm allergic to products with benzoyl peroxide and this serves as my substitute, when I WANT something harsh. It'll dry up your blemishes overnight (though it might take another night or two for them to completely go away).
Yes, it smells awful and looks weird. It's also kind of an oddball product, as I don't think sulfur is a very popular/common treatment anymore.
