Everyone’s human… Who doesn’t get pimples and hates them? I DO!!!
A girlfriend of mine who is in the Beauty industry (she works for Luxasia in Singapore) introduced this miracle lotion that zaps pimples like a Starship Trooper!
Ever since she got me my first bottle from her US trip, I got hooked! I can’t live without it as it cures my pimple-woes. An overnight application of this and it dries up in the morning, making the pimple “ripe to pop!” saving time and misery nursing a puss-y pimple for days.
Inside this glass bottle contains active ingredients like salicylic acid, calamine, camphor & titanium dioxide which helps dry out the white head immediately. As you can see from the photo above, there’s 2 separate layers – liquid & powder. Keep it that way and don’t shake it up before application.
How do you use it?
First, take a cotton bud/Q-tip and dip it straight into the bottle coating the tip with the powder. Remember not the shake the bottle before application.
Then take the cotton bud out and let the excess liquid drip back into the bottle.
Lastly & most importantly, apply it onto that evil pimple of yours!
Mine was a huge-ass one on my left nostril!!! Pain as hell… So zap away!!! *evil laughter*
Then the next morning, the puss-head fell out & pimple dried up! DEAD!
I know I have make-up on in the after picture, but you can really see how the pimple is dried up, flattened and the skin is flaking off for new skin to grow and it is easily concealed with some concealor without a nasty bump on your face.
My girlfriend got my first bottle from Sephora in the US for USD$17. But I was told last week that Sephora in US no longer carry Mario Badescu… Fortunately, I can still find it online from BeautyBay.com for about HK$114 with free international delivery from UK. Otherwise Sephora Singapore still carries it for SGD$68 (last saw it on 8 March 2014).
I have yet to try out the Kate Somerville version called EradiKate selling in Hong Kong for HK$295. Heard its pretty similar. 🙂
Note that this is not a sponsored review but just a beauty junkie sharing her secrets to nicer skin! *wink*
