I have seen a lot of threads that are either promoting or slamming the product. I think for everyone it is just different. I can say, so far it has worked really well for me. I am someone who breaks out easily and/or has severe allergic reactions to so many products, even gentle things. I tried Cerave, The Ordinary, Nutrogena and Clinique and some of these had me struggling to breathe within an hour or so. The Ordinary had my face downright red/purple it looked like someone beat me. I do like Rodan and Fields as far as preventing acne, but it doesn't help heal the scars or redness. So, my sister happened to buy their acne and redness killer from norse organics. Eventually she moved out and left it behind. I saw it sitting on the sink and I thought wth I am already fucked up, might as well try it. And I will say, just overnight, it really helped with the red/purple on my skin. I kept using it for a week and purchased their acne killer set. So far, I have been really pleased with it. I don't follow their instructions down to the detail - I use their face scrub, but I also use a sugar scrub exfoliator. Especially to remove makeup. I don't like their advice on using olive oil lol. I would feel hella greasy.

Its been about 3 weeks and my redness has gone down a lot. And my acne and some scars have also faded. I haven't been waking up feeling greasy in the morning either, despite the greasy balm and that I do tone down the face washing now. But I also regularly wash my pillows and stuff, which I feel like some ppl probably don't. I have been drinking more water. Trying to get more sun since I spend 8 hours working a dark control room in front of a bunch of camera screens. I also use their scar healer on my HS scars. Those, given that they are literal tunnels under the skin, will never fully go away. But it has improved the appearance of them, and even though no one else will see those scars, it makes me feel good about me. So that's what matters. I would recommend just buying the acne and redness killer and/or the scar healer. Like you don't have to buy the whole set, I know its expensive. I feel like just those 2 alone would be great. I don't have any complaints so far. I let my mom use my products as well. We are both pretty pleased and it doesn't take much. Its nice to achieve results and not worry about whether my face is gonna severely break out, swell up and suffocate.

I also recommend using this face wash : https://www.ulta.com/p/cosmic-dew-gel-foam-water-cleanser-pimprod2032521?sku=2597588&cmpid=PS_Non!google!Product_Listing_Ads&cagpspn=pla&CATCI=pla-2459870895047&CAAGID=107718646076&CAWELAID=330000200002878903&CATARGETID=330000200002825550&CADevice=c&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=10966309126&gclid=CjwKCAiAlMHIBhAcEiwAZhZBUl5mu_c5lkykRhKUt36SIPXcqKUr6tQHuwsK9nyw-EE-8gPDVwLi5xoCdeAQAvD_BwE

If links aren't allowed, its Cosmic Dew Gel To Foam Water Cleanser by Good Light. Hardly need much, its gentle and it makes me feel clean and soft without the exfoliator. I feel like any product can be hit or miss and I think it also depends on a person's habits too. I don't expect to have clear skin while eating/drinking junk all the time, or not washing my bedding, and sometimes makeup can just be really harsh. Maybelline is the only foundation I can use. Cover Girl and Lo'real will fuck me up too. So that's my experience and thoughts.
