Alca review for Effaclar Duo Plus

Effaclar Duo Plus is a spot treatment/moisturizer for oily, acne-prone skin. The key ingredients are LHA and BHA, which exfoliates dead skin cells, and Niacinamide to reduce acne marks. It's alcohol-free but contains fragrance. 🔵 Packaging This moisturizer comes in a 40ml tube with a long applicator, so it's easy to use as a spot treatment, and the application isn't messy. 🔵 Texture and smell Even though it contains fragrance, the smell is faint and cosmetics-like, not overwhelming. The texture is lightweight, almost gel-like, and spreads easily. It absorbs very fast and does not feel sticky or oily. The finish is slightly matte, and it may feel a bit drying. 🔵 My experience I got this when I had a bad breakout, and my spot treatment couldn't handle it. I saw this on sale and gave it a try, and it worked perfectly. I was using this in my whole jaw area because I had a lot of acne there, now I use it only as a spot treatment. It's a bit drying, so I always follow with a moisturizer and use it only in areas where needed. I'm sharing my before and after 1 month pictures for comparison. I saw positive changes after a week, but my skin is affected by my period, so I wanted to be sure it wasn't a fluke. It helped me with the breakout, but I didn't notice any changes in the acne marks. 🔵 Summary, things to consider - contains LHA and BHA, so be careful when pairing it with other exfoliators - helps with acne - big tube for a spot treatment, small for a moisturizer - slightly drying 🔵 Would I buy another one? Yes. I'd love to try other similar LRP products for comparison, but I can see myself repurchasing this. I like that it's effective against acne and its size. I can definitely recommend this to anyone with persistent acne they can't get rid of.
