Blemish Control Gel Reviews

The Trilogy blemish control gel comes in a white, easy to use 20ml tube.
The gel is quite runny and silky in texture, it's texture is more like that of a serum than a gel. It is very lightweight and works well both underneath skincare products and applied over the top but I find the best results to be to apply only the gel onto the affected area.
The gel is transparent orange in colour, the scent is quite herbal; like a majority of the other products in the Trilogy range.
It smells predominately like rosehip and mandarin; the scent does not linger long and is not offensive or irritating at all.
I used this gel when I had a product reaction and had breakouts all over my chin and cheeks, my skin was breaking out quite badly so this gel had it's work cut out for it.
It found that it did help to calm the skin, ease the redness and dry out the breakouts. It did take several applications and a few days to start really making a noticeable difference but it did do the job and definitely helped lessen the severity and duration of the breakouts.

It does tingle slightly upon contact with the affected area but this is to be expected with salicylic acid, you can feel it beginning to work and dry out the blemish.
I did experience some peeling of the skin around the affected area after a couple of applications, it does state on the box that this may occur and is to be expected.

My final thoughts on this product.. I found it easy to use, it is easy to dispense the gel and a little bit does go a long way, one light squeeze of the tube was sufficient per use.
It did take a bit and several repeat applications to start seeing a noticeable difference; I started seeing a noticeable difference after a couple of days. It does work and does do the job well but it requires multiple treatments and takes a bit to start showing noticeable results so for this reason I have given it three stars instead of five.
I did like this product as I love the Trilogy brand but if you have a really bad breakout and want a quick visible reduction this isn't the right product, this one takes patience and persistence.
In terms of results and effectiveness there are supermarket treatments about the same price range that will noticeably reduce the severity within hours.
I liked using this as a more natural option but in terms of effectiveness I will only re purchase if my breakouts are mild.
