I received a free sample of this Neutrogena Anti-Wrinkle cream, and even though it's meant for wrinkles it actually worked great for my acne. It also helped with the number & size of the blackheads I have. I only use a little bit at night only, because too much can make your skin too sensitive. I usually rub in a tiny dab while my skin is still a little damp - the water helps it spread more easily. The only caveat is you should use a good sunscreen during the day b/c it makes you more sensitive to the sun - I got a little bit of a sunburn at first.
I've had acne since I was 10 years old, and I finally figured out that I needed a lot of exfoliation to keep from breaking out like crazy but scrubs were really irritating. Now I've switched to using this cream with my face cleanser that has salicylic acid in it. I started noticing a difference after about a week, and my skin is not only clearer but actually looks kind of glowy too.
NOTE: the reviewer indicated that they received a sample of Neutrogena Healthy Skin Anti-Wrinkle, Anti-Blemish Cream
