Q: How do you use this? Do you put it all over your face or do you put it on a spot over night? I have hormonal acne and I’m unsure on how to use it.
A: You are supposed to use it on pimples overnight as a spot treatment. However I advise against this—it made my pimples larger and more inflamed.
submitted byimsosad - 5 years agoA: You apply it over the breakouts. If you have concerns that it might irritate your skin, I would use it every other night (or morning -- I put it on beneath my make-up) and then gradually increase use if you don't see any problems.
submitted byAnnieM - 4 years agoA: Personally I use it as a spot treatment, all over my face or just in certain areas. Be consistent with using the product daily and don't expect acne to be gone in one night.

Q: Can I use this if pregnant?
A: Hi, Zoe2021 - Thanks for asking! It is said that pregnant women can use acne spot treatment for moderate to severe acne, however, they should avoid isotretinoin, spironolactone, and doxycycline, none of which are found in this product. We recommend to also refer to the American Academy of Dermatology Association for more information. Have a great day! - Rob
