Avéne Cleanance Spot Treatment
“I received Avéne Cleanance Spot Treatment recently and it has been a lifesaver when a few uninvited hormonal spots started appearing on my cheeks. It comes in pen form and is very waxy – very different to any other spot treatment I’ve tried. I do find this good though as it only sits where it’s applied and doesn’t run or thin out over the affected area. I feel like it’s more concentrated than other products. I saw a big reduction in the size of my spots after using the product just a few times in one day – and will be keeping it handy for any further break outs!” Rating: 4/5 – bh member bh’s Olivia

I love the Avene Clerance K moisturiser, it really helps my combo skin. But have never tried this one, will definitely look out for it.

The product sounds great and i too hope the the price isn't to high. I hate it when you get a really big ugly pimple right before a public event. I had to sing at the indi 2000 and just brock out from stress and nervs. it was horible and imbarising.

Back when i was still in high school, pimples would pop up all the time! I wasnt much into make-up, in fact it didnt ever really cross my mind until my sister introducted me to concealer. I still remember putting concealer on like foundation...ekk!! hahaha... its ok it wasnt long till i got the swing of things and brought proper foundation and got into a good routine washing my face twice daily. Wasnt to long after that my skin started clearing up much better.

The waxy pen style of this product sounds great. My most annoying blemish story happened over 15 years ago yet it still haunts me. I was flirting with a guy I had a crush on when he leaned in and said 'You have a massive zip on your chin'. I wished the ground would open up and swallow me right then. What was a small dot in the morning had developed into a white topped mountain during the day without my knowledge.

Having to resort to Roaccutane in my mid 20's because absolutely nothing else worked for me. It was genetic and hormonal and blah! My mum & sister had the same problem but they chose to just handle it - I couldn't stand it and went on Roaccutane.

I like the sound of this spot treatment, I'll have to investigate. As for annoying pimple stories, I had a major hormone/stress related breakout about a month ago. It was so bad I hid until they went away >.<

I think any blemish is an annoying story really. At 38 I still get the occasional pimple. Will be giving this one a go.

Gosh I have had the worst zits I can remember for ages over the last few weeks, just getting them sorted now, normally just get monthly spots but nothing major, these recent ones were massive, mostly blind zits around my chin area. I am sure that a mixture of stress, not eating properly and not having any power for a week so that I couldn't use my clarisonic were the contributing factors, eww so congested!!

i had to accompany my friend from work to his year 12 formal. my Big mistake, i exfoliated my face earlier that day and it made my face all red all day which made my spots impossible to cover up! and my face was so shiny! no amount of powder would make it go away! The formal was uncomfortable and i felt like everyone was staring at my shiny red face. The photos came a few weeks later and it was awful how shiny i was! wanted to die! i learnt from that night never to go crazy on the scrub and do it the day before the date !

I might have to hunt this one down as I'm slack with spot treatments, mostly because they aren't really easy to use due to the texture and smell.
