Product Review: Celeteque Acne Spot Corrector Gel

Sunday, September 09, 2012

     Hello there loves! Hope you're all doing fine :D I'm excited to make this review because after two weeks of using religiously, I can attest to its effectiveness in combating those painful reddish pimple and dark spots or pimple marks. This is my first spot treatment to date since I just let a pimple or two subside by itself before. I have this bad habit of pricking those nasty zits on my cheeks and chin where they always pop out if the size is still the same after a week. I'm glad that after so many years of just letting pimples to come out of my face before and after my monthly period already found a solution.

     Thanks to Celeteque DermoScience for bringing this product line. Although I haven't tried the Acne Solutions line, I'm sure they will give good results if used consistently. I suffered from acne breakouts last month and I'm considering two spot corrector that time. Since Celeteque is a trusted brand when it comes to skin care that's dermatologist-tested and hypoallergenic, I gave it a try and satisfied with the results. 

      I bought this Celeteque Acne Spot Correcting Gel three weeks ago and applied on existing cystic acne and new ones. Patience is a virtue, I'm not expecting this to make my pimple disappear overnight but in some cases or depending the size it can make a big difference on the size of a pimple after 12 hours. My son accidentally deleted the photo of my angry pimps that I wanted to show you- bummer! But I swear this product works!!! Now here's my take on Acne spot corrector gel, click read more to see my full review.

Celeteque Acne Spot Corrector Gel

What I like:
  • The price- very affordable.
  • Comes in a handy tube that fits in my palm.
  • I can control the amount of product coming out of this nozzle type of tube.
  • A little goes a long way.
  • Has a medicinal smell but tolerable.
  • There's a bit of stinging upon application, an indication that the product is working on the affected area.
  • Doesn't burn or peel the site where I applied it.
  • Reduced the size of my pimple after 12 hours and gone after 2-3 days.
  • Has batch, manufacturing and expiry date stamped on the box and the tube.

What I don't like:
  • Sometimes it's out of stock.

Will I repurchase? Yes! It's back-up worthy :D

Recommendations:
     I give this a 4.5/5 rating. If you have time, use it more than twice a day to speed up the healing process of your zits. Since I'm always at home I make sure to apply a thin layer three or four times a day depending on the size of my pimples. I'm happy that when I wake up the next day it reduced the swelling, redness and size. If there's a sign that a new pimple is coming out, I immediately apply this gel and voila! I can bid my pimples goodbye :D

     Do you use spot corrector treatment for your pimple? Any Celeteque users out there? 

Good Times!~
