Acne? Sensitive skin? Try this!Jan 30, 2011
By Angela Evans I have sensitive skin and I've been on Accutane and countless other prescription and nonprescription products. While the Accutane helped immensely in treating my skin issues, I still get breakouts on occasion. When the dreaded breakout does occur, I can expect to have the pimple or pimple and subsequent blemish for at least three weeks. So, I'd been searching for something that I could get without a prescription that would treat my acne and reduce the redness and blemishes left by my acne.
In the past, I'd always been incredibly sensitive to products containing the traditional acne fighters -- benzoyl peroxide and salicylic acid. The peeling and itchiness became painful. So I was leery of this stick. The ingredients contain willow bark, the extract of which is a natural form of salicylic acid.
The negative reactions I have had with synthetic counterparts to salicylic acid have been absent while using this stick. I have had no itching or redness. I was fretful about potential peeling (you all probably know how hard it is to apply makeup to a peeling face)but have experienced no peeling.
I use it at least two times a day when I feel a pimple coming on and usually have been able to stop a pimple in its tracks. When I apply the stick to an already formed pimple, the next morning the pimple, while still present, is usually diminished in size.
For the price of this stick, I wholeheartedly urge you to try this product. It is a natural alternative to the seeming barrage of chemicals that we ingest and put on our skin daily.
This product does have a scent but it is not overpowering in my opinion. If you are highly sensitive to scents, however, locate a store that sells this product and try a display sample. Walk around the store with the scent on your hand or under your chin and see if you can tolerate the product.
This product is made in the United States and not tested on animals.

It works for me!Jun 18, 2010
By M. Lynch
"nerdgirl"
I purchased Burt's Bees Herbal Blemish Stick after my usual stick - Desert Essence Tea Tree Oil - was no longer stocked at my local grocery store. This product also contains tea tree oil, along with willowbark ("natural" salicylic acid), calendula, parsley, eucalyptus, juniper, yarrow oil, and many more. I was impressed by how quickly the stick reduced the redness of blemishes from my face. It dries acne very quickly as do most tea tree oil products. It is easy to apply. It does seem to clear and dry blemishes slightly faster than my old Desert Essence sticks, but it dries my skin less. I use it several times a day on all areas of my face where zits have popped up before. It does its job well; zits appear far less often and when they do, they disappear much faster, there is far less redness, they aren't as big, and the best part - less scarring!
The downsides? The product smells bad (to me, anyway - like antiseptic licorice). But once it dries on your skin, you will not smell it and neither should anyone else. The scent is unusual but you will get used to it with time. Another downside is that the product is used up very quickly, so you may need to buy in bulk. I wish they sold these sticks in 3-packs or more.
A similar product is the Burt's Bees Targeted Spot Treatment. I have used both; the stick lasts longer and is easier to apply.
Recommended for acne prone skin.

Finally an acne product that works!Mar 26, 2012
By Olddog
"olddognonewtrick"
I have had acne since I was 12 (now in my late 30's). I have really never found a product that truly helps clear my face until now. Thank you Burt Bees for making this incredible, yet inexpensive product. I didn't think it would work since there are so many expensive treatment products that I have tried that didn't help. I pretty much had given up hope and said what do I have to lose except the few bucks. Yes it stings a little, yes it smells like licorice, and yes it clears up acne. I don't consider myself having mild acne either. I always have had a significant amount of red acne on a daily basis. It's been very embarrassing. I put this on once in the morning and once before bed and wake up to a clear face. It is awesome! This product is cheap, and effortless to apply and yet it is so effective. Something that literally takes seconds to do it astonishes me that it is the answer to my huge acne problem all these years. My only regret is that I didn't find it sooner. Enough wasted money on acne treatment systems that are multiple steps, time consuming, and not effective. Finally a simple solution that actually works. Give it a try, hopefully it will work for you as well as it does for me. Worst case scenario you're out a few bucks.

Good product, flimsy designMar 23, 2012
By Vadim The product itself does the job, but only for the short period of time, you have to reapply it throughout the day. I started using it only because of facial burns from benzoil peroxide. It's a decent alternative. But the screw cap cracked and broke after several days of use and now the solution is basically evaporating. Very disappointed.

Best pimple and blemish remover I have EVER found - and I tell all my friends.Feb 23, 2012
By Heath L. Buckmaster
"_heath_"
In a sentence: This product removes pimples and blemishes in less than 24-hours (in most cases).
With more details: I make no statements about how this product may work on your skin - you'll just have to give it a shot and see. What I can tell you is that for me, and the many friends I've recommended it to, it's hands-down the best blemish remover we have ever used.
It has saved me many embarrassing moments in public when I catch something the night before and give it a few swipes of Burt's Bees. But let's talk about what you get.
The blemish stick itself is like a roll-on. The liquid inside has a pleasant smell of mint, licorice, outdoors, and any number of adjectives that are in that herbal genre. If I had to pick a gender, it's a masculine scent and the bonus is that it seems to work well as a nasal decongestant too if you happen to have some blemishes on or under your nose.
Unscrew the top, turn it over, and start rolling it across your face where the blemishes are. I've noticed that there are some manufacturing differences across sticks. On some the silicon ball tends to slide easily and on others it needs to be primed in order to roll and bring the liquid out. Not a big deal.
I like to give a blemish a coating every couple of hours if possible. You will notice that on normal skin there is some visible drying that can occur after several days of use - watch for that if you have sensitive skin.
Pimples tend to being shrinking within a few hours and in some cases on my face they have 90% vanished by the next morning. Other pimples take 2 days to be completely gone - you'll just have to see what works with your skin.
No other product (and I've tried many of the Oxy-style pads) has come close to the herbal power of Burt's Bees, and it's nice knowing that I'm using completely natural and organic stuff on my face vs. a lot of chemicals that don't do the job anyway.
Give it a try - it's the only thing I use now for blemishes, and I've converted many friends over to it as well.
