  2. Lifesaver

    Nat

    I’ve got oily/combination skin and I’ve found if I put it on a spot where it feels like a beak out is coming through it’ll almost stop it or at least makes it come up so much smaller than usual. Works great on my active ones too!
  3. This works!

    R

    I'm using this to control small pimples on my upper arms. It's a great product and really works but I'm concerned about the very small tube/value for money aspect when using it on larger areas.
  4. Decent

    Maddy

    Good for hormonal acne. It can leave red patches on sensitive skin.
  5. Pretty good

    Bre

    I found this product did a good job on smaller pimples overnight, however whenever I had a bigger pimple pop up it didn’t do anything. Good product for those who don’t get big serious pimples!
  6. Good

    Singh

    It stings at first but works. Patch testing is definitely recommended for sensitive skin.
  7. Works okay

    Ris

    I got incredible amounts of hormonal acne after coming off the pill and wanted to try this. It dries the area out intensely, does nothing for large patches of acne, or large under the skin pimples. It does dry up small pimples quite quickly, so if you're only concerned about the odd spot this could work for you. I have not seen a noticeable difference in fading any scarring.
  8. Good

    Pamela

    Very good blemish gel, helps fade away scars !
  9. A bit too strong.

    Meredith

    This caused the area where I applied the gel to flake.
  10. Not sure it works

    Elle

    This might have helped with making my blemishes heal a little quicker, but wherever I put it, it turns my skin bright red. And I have never had particularly sensitive skin. Wouldnt purchase again.
  11. great for blemishes

    clo

    clears blemishes helps it go away with time lasts really long as much is not needed to see results
  12. One of the best acne gel I have tried

    Celia

    I have tried loads of acne gel from different brands, this is the only one actually works.
  13. Fantastic for cystic pimples

    Ang

    Im 43 and had 10 hormonal cystic pimples appear like magic!!Put this on at night and they reduced by half and the redness around them did to.
  14. Annoyed I didn't try it sooner

    Clare

    I have been dealing with a breakout for the past 3 months and this has sorted my skin out in just a few days. I've struggled with cystic acne in the past and my spots always turn into more by the time one has healed. I am so happy with my skin. It is pricy for the amount but it's well worth it. You only need a little bit
  15. Excellent

    SkyeDanger

    I have really reactive/sensitive skin.... it drives me batty and smallest product change/introduction can cause my skin to go bonkers Anyway this is the only pimple solution that actually clears up the the pimples. When I initially put this on it does make the spots redder for an hour or two, but this eventually dies down and TBH it legit works in like a day or two to clear them up. I’ve had clus...

  16. SO good

    Nour

    This is a must have for my pesky breakouts, calms them instantly and I see a reduction in my spots the next day
  17. Such a good product!

    Tilly

    Love this for my pimples, really clears them up and calms them
  18. tingles a little, but it works

    lovesean

    would buy it again (on a lightly pricey side), but it does work on my pimples (I found it works especially on the one that still underneath the skin about to come out), and calm the skin a bit.
  19. Great way to get rid of pimples

    Vicky

    I only get the occasional monthly related pimple these days but always have this on hand and it does the job! It’s a small tube but you only need a tiny bit, I would recommend
  20. reduces inflamation

    leigh

    not sure if it really helps to get rid of a pimple, but it helps reduce the inflammation and makes it look less red.
  21. Too strong for dry skin?

    Emily

    I have very dry skin that is prone to blemishes. I had been using the Sukin Blemish Control Gel but I wanted to trial something a little stronger. I think the Medik8 SOS may have been too strong for my skin, as it caused LOTS of peeling at any spot that I applied the gel. The peeling seemed to continue in the given spot long after my pimple had healed as well. I also found it to be equally effecti...

  23. Holy grail for my breakouts

    Kimberley

    I have been using this product for about 2 years now and cannot be without it. I was first recommended it by a facial therapist and have re-purchased ever since. I don't have severe acne however I am prone to breakouts (more so during winter). The formula is clear/gel like and lightweight which makes it great for wearing out of the house. I frequently apply this to my active breakouts (3-4 times a...

  24. Tbh this product sucks

    Dee

    I had really high hopes for this because of the rave reviews, but I was really disappointed. It didn't work for me at all, waste of money...
    I don't even get super bad acne or pimples, and gave it several chances and did not heal my blemishes AT ALL.
  25. SKIN SAVIOUR

    Lala

    This drew out what i believe was cystic acne or at least a pimply lump under my skin on my cheek that I have NEVER been able to get rid of, even my facialist said these things come and go!! Using this spot treatment morning and night bought this to a head and the following days it was gone!! I rave about this to everyone so, definitely consider this for any of your concerns!!
  26. This is freaking awesome!

    KristieM

    I suffer from annoying hormonal acne every month. This product hands down treats the pimples within a day and if used regularly is enough to stop them appearing in the first place. A++++
  27. Helps with congestion but tingles

    Laura

    Light gel, layers well with other skincare, Not too drying thanks to the glycerin. Niacinamide & salicylic acid help with congestion and blemishes. Tingles on application which is probably the essential oils. Packaging is fine, only use a tiny bit of product at a time so will last a long time.
  28. First impressions do count!

    Donna

    I suffer from congestion, mainly around the chin area and I was looking for a product a little bit easier to travel with than an Aloe Vera plant! I had already been introduced to the value of skin care (beyond the Woolworths brand staples), and Medik8 range through the podcast & so it was a no-brainer to try the Blemish Rapid SOS Rapid Action Target Gel to tackle this problem. I dabbed a little on...

  29. Love love love

    Kelza

    I've tried so many spot pimple cream/ gels and this one by far has been the best. It works within hours.
  30. The best spot treatment!

    Natasha

    I think I've repurchased this three times. It's the only spot treatment i use- calms redness and inflammation, shrinks the size of the pimple and helps to dry it out over night. It doesn't feel stingy or stripping when applied and the smell doesn't linger. It is a tiny bit sticky after application but that doesn't bother me.
  31. highly recommend

    Jodi

    favourite spot treatment as it helps heal and dry out any pimples, dries them out and prevents them coming back
  32. Rapid Action indeed

    Shreya

    This SOS gel does what it says, overnight it targets and dries out the pimple. Excellent spot treatment. However the ingredients have changed, it used to have azelaic acid which aids in the post acne pigmentation, for some reason the new formulation does not have this.

    Still a good spot treatment.
  33. Worth its weight in gold

    Em

    Fantastic spot treatment. Perfect for when a pimple pops up the morning of a big event. Literally works before your eyes.
  34. Favourite spot treatment

    Kaz

    Love this spot treatment. You only need a tiny pin prick of it - so don't be deterred by the price, it'll last ages. Probably my favourite spot treatment as it helps heal and dry out any pimples, but not to the point where it leaves your skin flaking off. Love that I can wear this during the day under a bit of concealer too.
  35. pimple, be gone

    weis

    so i think most people are skeptical when they come across a product that claims to practically remove pimples overnight; and i was definitely one of these. but after reading through the reviews i thought 'meh, what the hell, i'll give it a go'. and i'm glad i did. and while it wasn't as amazing as what medik8 claim, i did find it definitely heals up the skin quicker. it also works well in those i...

  36. Holy moly this is worth the nearly $50

    Katie

    I have been having a stressful past few months, and when stress combines with my cycle, I am guaranteed at LEAST one mean cystic zit in my chin. This is the only thing I have found that shrinks them. It made quick work of one that had already broken the surface, and kept two other ones at bay so they never fully formed. I wish I had found this earlier in my life. It’s amazing. I have read though t...

  37. Good but pricey

    Alex

    I’ve found this pretty good so far. I get a combo or small whiteheads and blackheads, as well as occasional cystic acne. I’ve found it works quite well as a spot treatment on whiteheads, though haven’t found it makes them disappear within a day or two as some reviews suggested. I switched to this when my skin started to react to The Ordinary’s Salicylic Acid (made my skin peel). So far so good! No...

  38. Wonderful

    Nicole

    I put this on before bed on targeted pimples, over a few nights, and work like a charm!
  39. Overnight

    Sha

    Reduces the inflammation on pimples very quickly (assuming this is the Azelaic Acid action). I think this is great for overnight, but doesn't work as quickly as they claim
  40. Great product

    Nicole

    I use all Medik 8 skincare and swear by there products. This one in particular has been great for spot treatments, Doesn't dry out my skin but quickly decreases the size of blemishes.
  41. Spot Treatment That Actually Works

    Kira

    Most spot treatments I've tried haven't worked and have just been money down the drain so I was skeptical of this but I'm so glad I bought it. This works so well and quickly too. It has calmed down and reduced any breakouts I've had and helped them heal quicker.
  42. Definitely worth having in your beauty regime

    Nicola

    I was recommended this product by my beauty therapist. I won't lie, I was 100% skeptical about it. All of the other 'spot gels' I've ever tried have never worked, so why would this one?

    I don't get a lot of acne, but I do get the occasional bad break out. I've been using this on my bad breakouts, and I kid you not it works! If it doesn't completely get rid of it overnight it defin...

  43. Must Have

    claire

    I use this at night before going to sleep on my pimples, When I wake up straight away I can notice the difference. They are not as big and the redness is gone.
    I even find if I out the gel on at the right time of the pimple its completely gone the next day
  44. Lifesaver

    Chelsea

    This little tube is a lifesaver! If I have any spots I literally pop this on and bam GONE
  45. Works so well on spots

    Kelly

    I put this straight over a spot and it helps reduce redness as well as heal faster. I find when using this my pimples don’t last as long. A little definitely goes a long way and I love that you can use it under makeup with no problems.
  46. Best for spots!

    Cha

    I use this for any spot that comes up! Takes the redness away and shrinks pimples overnight. It is also awesome for ingrown hairs! My only downside was the price but the tube does last ages and after spending lots of money on ingrown hair products, it's well worth it to find something that really works!
