I have all of the typical bad skin traits without actually suffering from many blemishes. I suffer from redness, uneven skin tone, large pores and a very oily t zone. I also have what can only be described as little, under the skin bumps across my cheeks and forehead. I cannot begin to explain how many different products I have tried to try and reduce the appearance of all of my bad skin problems and I was just about to give up when I decided to try Effaclar Duo [+]. I cannot speak any higher of this product. It has completely changed my skin over the 3 weeks or so I've been using it and it just keeps getting better and better. Where has it been my whole life?? I love it and will continue to repurchase again and again.
I like this product and I will be re-purchasing, however that's not to say that I don't have mixed feelings about it! I bought it as I heard and read rave reviews about what a fantastic cream it is for blemishes. I have hypersensitive, dry/combination skin that gets the occasional breakout (usually around my chin/jaw line or cheeks). Worst still, after they disappear I am left with marks that are quite visible on my pale, almost transparent skin. This was the main reason why I wanted this - to speed up the healing process and to ease the marks. I feel that it hasn't really delivered on those terms for me. Applying it at night, the next day I didn't feel as though my blemish had reduced in size or redness and I can't say I have noticed a difference in marks fading. HOWEVER, I randomly tired this cream in the morning before my makeup and all I can say is wow! This is a better product then some of the primers I have. This works so well with my makeup in terms of protecting my skin and making my makeup last all day long (literally!). After using it for a couple of weeks now, I also have noticed a general improvement in my skin quality (I don't feel it is so radically combination any more, and I have noticed the dry patches on my forehead have vanished). For this reason I have found that it works for me and will be recommending.
I have been quite faithful to the original Effaclar Duo, which is a very effective spot treatment. When I found out there was a newer 'plus +' version, I was wondering, how can they top the original?
After using both, I can see a clear difference between the two-this new formula is excellent on larger pimples and spots, and stops them for leaving a scar on the skin!! Your skin goes back to normal after spot has gone - no scars left at all!
I still use the original for smaller spots, but these treatments are something I simply cannot live without!

There are thousands of great reviews of Effaclar Duo on the Internet. I have used several tubes of the old version. It really helped clear my skin and keep the annoying acnes in control without drying out skin. As soon as I know La Roche-Posay release the new version Effaclar Duo +, I simply ordered three tubes to add to my stockpile.
