What kind of blemishes can Drying Lotion be used for?

Drying Lotion works best on above-the-surface blemishes. For any blemish on the verge of being expressed, this product works as an overnight on-the-spot treatment mask to expedite the process and reduce redness.

Is the Drying Lotion for preventative use?

No – the Drying Lotion should only be used on active blemishes.

How often should I use the Drying Lotion when I have an active blemish?

The Drying Lotion can be used every night (for oily / combination skin) or every other night (for dry / sensitive skin) to reduce the appearance of a blemish.

Is this product to treat blackheads?

No – this product is strictly for above-the-surface blemishes. If you’d like to reduce the appearance of blackheads, please try our Silver Powder.

What is the difference between the Drying Lotion and the Buffering Lotion?

The Drying Lotion is an overnight spot treatment mask for above-the-surface blemishes (any blemish with a head to it). The Buffering Lotion is an overnight spot treatment for beneath-the-surface blemishes (commonly cystic or hormonal breakouts).
