YUMMY SKIN PH NOTES

We recommend trying the 15g tube first at 5% concentration to see if it works on your skin. Benzac has varied results and while it works on the majority of users, some few people claims of its ineffectiveness. 

Also, only apply it on your acne or on your affected area to avoid irritation since this product should only be used for spot treatment.

Avoid excessive sunlight exposure when using this product.

Fight Acne with Quick FX

Acne are infamous for showing up uninvited on our face before a special occasion where a lot of people will be witness to that red ugly pimple.


Quick FX Pimple Eraser is available at Watson's at P50.00 for 10g. According to the label is helps dry up pimples, helps diminish and reduce dark spots due to scarring and helps protect skin against the sun. We tried this product out to see if it is really worth it.

Quick FX has nice consistency, not too thick and easy to apply on the skin. There's only a tiny hint of a sweet scent. It applies easily on the face and light on the skin.

Here are some of the ingredients and their purpose:

Glycolic acid - helps in removing old skin to reveal younger skin underneath. This also helps in evening out skin tone buy exposing healthier skin over dead skin.

Salycilic acid - most commonly used to treat acne and other blemishes like dark spots.

Zinc Oxide - Has an antiinflammatory property (an acne is most often an inflammatory reaction) 

Vitamin C - whitening effect on the skin

Niacinamide- Known to lighten dark spots

After applying this product on a swollen acne, there is noticeable decrease in the acne redness and size overnight. We can say that Quick FX is effective against acne and we strongly recommend this product.
 However, try to avoid using this product when you will be exposed to the sun because it has no or little sun blocking effect, 
I suggest to use this product at night or when you just plan to stay indoors. Here's the rundown of our review:

PROS 
Helps diminish acne
Helps decrease acne redness
Helps lighten dark spots 
Cheap

CONS
Not much helpful for old acne scars
No sun blocking effects
