How to Use
Apply to the entire face morning and evening, after cleansing with Effaclar Purifying Foaming Cleanser. Apply before make-up. Can be used alone or with a moisturiser.

Pros: I really like this product. After using it for a while my skin is looking much better, clearer, less red with barely any imperfections (it's not perfect by any means - but I think that whatever I use my skin will still be bad because of the acne I had as a youngster). It's a nice creamy, gel like texture and you only need a tiny bit to smooth out all over your face. It helps to heal blemishes and acts as a great moisturiser underneath make-up. I am very happy with the results, application is easy, I like the packaging and it leaves no oily residue on your skin.

Cons: It has mixed reviews everywhere, so I was hesitant to try it, and at first it doesn't really make much of a difference but if you are patient with it i.e. use it longer than a month, you should start to see an improvement. Don't expect miracles!  It's quite a small tube and it may be expensive for some.

Have you tried Effaclar Duo? What do you think of it? What are your go-to acne lifesavers?
