Promising reviews: "Magic! All of these years, I haven't been able to find anything that helps my nose with the black and white house that appear. This is it! I've used it twice and already see clearing. As the other reviews say, it feels like nothing when you first started and then little tiny Scrubs come out that are not abrasive but obviously are doing the job. Worth the cost!" —Tia M Kreps

"I am amazed and so shocked with how well this works!!! I’ve never found something to remove the black heads on my nose and this erases it like MAGIC!!!!" —Abby Fecher

Promising review: "Works like magic! Works great! I use it throughout the day and there is a noticeable difference and it doesn’t take off my makeup! Shiny to matte in seconds!" —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "This is a magic stick! I have used many expensive skin products but, none worked like this stick in such a short period of time. I subscribe to this product. I make sure I always have one on hand in case they went out. This product is worth the money. It is under price if you ask me." —Donna Marshall

Promising review: "So this product is completely worth the money. The quality is amazing. I didn’t notice any smell after a few seconds of using it. My skin was smooth and bright but not sticky. It works like magic. I have sensitive skin, so I can’t use this product too close to my nose, but in the rest, it's amazing!" —Isabela L

Promising review: "This product is like Botox in a tube!!! It works like magic...love this product!" —Pattie 

Just presoak your feet, apply the gel, let sit for 5–10 minutes, and rinse! It's recommended you go back in afterward with a foot file just to make sure no residue or dead skin is left behind.

Promising review: "This works like magic. I was skeptical at first, but when I finally used it, all I could say was, WOW. It completely made the bottom of my feel super soft and new again. I can even go longer in between maintaining now!" —stephen

Get it from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in three scents).

Promising review: "This is the best stuff ever!!! I don’t wear makeup as often as I used to, so one jar lasted me about five months. I wear makeup at least once or twice a week, but it works like magic to remove primer, foundation, concealer, powder, blush and contour, lipstick, and waterproof mascara all sealed in with Urban Decay setting spray. I have very oily, very bad acne-prone skin, as well as being allergic to a lot of skin creams, and I had nothing but great results. I use this then wipe it off with a wet washcloth, then follow up with my face soap and water to break down the oil. And voila!" —Gabby 

Most reviewers recommend doing this treatment once per week. 

Promising review: "I am not too big on skincare, but I have been following this mask's hype on digital platforms. A couple of months back I ordered since the price tag is not bad. I live in Arizona, and it gets really dry here; this mask worked like magic. Helped me combat the dryness. The best part is you don't have to use it daily (unless you want baby skin). I use it once every week and it keeps my skin plumped the whole week. I take this with me during travel and put it while I am on the plane to not have jetlagged skin after. This review is coming from a toddler mom and a full-time worker, so you can imagine how much limited time I have for myself." —Ms. W

Promising review: "After 32 years of using no product except the occasional moisturizer on my skin, I noticed my pores getting larger and asked a friend for advice. She told me to use niacinamide. I read about it and knew it could be harsh, so I tested it under my chin. No reaction. So then I used it on my nose and cheekbones. It resulted in a burn that left raised scarring and poor coloration for months. My friends used to tell me how amazing my skin looked, and all of a sudden, everyone was sort of like, OMG, what happened? I was so bummed but read that facial scrubs can help even complexion. So I bought this one and am thrilled. The redness left over on my cheeks has subsided relatively quickly, and for the first time in months, the bumps on my face are reduced. This stuff smells like crap but works like magic. A must buy!" —K81

Note: This product has newer packaging that you might receive instead of the older bottle shown above!

Promising reviews: "Literally works like magic. One of my cheek piercings was on the verge of infection and extremely irritated; this helped within a few days! No more crusties or itchiness. I use it every day now to keep all of my piercings clean." —Kason 

"I’ve been using this hypochlorous acid spray morning, night, and after the gym, and I’m honestly amazed by the results! Since I started using it, I haven’t had any breakouts, and my skin feels so much clearer and calmer. It’s gentle but effective, and I love how refreshing it feels. It’s also great for post-workout, keeping my skin clean and refreshed after sweating. This has definitely become a staple in my skincare routine, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking to improve their skin’s clarity and health!" —Amazon Customer 

Get it from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in five sizes and multipacks).

Promising review: "I was skeptical about buying this because I’ve used gloves and loofas and others before, and they weren’t working or got moldy quickly and ugly. This one works like magic. You don’t have to scrub so hard once you let your skin soak up water to where it gets soft to scrub. You definitely see the dead skin come off, and it’s soothing after, especially when shaving. I love it! Would definitely buy more when I need to replace it. Don’t miss out on healthy, clean skin." —Daniela

Get it from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in six colors).

Promising reviews: "This is so good for your skin and works like magic." —Akash 

"This product is GREAT!! I have struggled with blackheads since middle school — I’m now 44. I wasn’t sure about washing my face with oil, but WOW!!! After just a few uses, my blackheads are almost nonexistent!!! Thank you soooo much for this product. I wish I had found it sooner!!! I wish I had taken a picture before to show my results, but honestly, nothing has ever worked, so I didn’t have high hopes. But I’m telling you, this works!!!" —Mandrs

Promising review: "This facial cleanser is perfect for my dry skin! My acne is terrible and my skin is constantly dry. I decided to buy this and it works like magic. Smells kinda funky, but it’s alright. It moisturizes your skin. It is definitely helping with my acne! I’m happy with my purchase!" —Tommy 

Promising review: "This product works like magic! I tend to have normal-to-oily skin, and this leaves my skin looking smooth! Also, whenever I get a pimple, I put it on at night after cleansing, and it dries it out usually within one to two days! I highly recommend this product! Bought the second time to restock what I had finished! That’s how you know it’s good." —Roberto & Julie

Promising review: "Love this product. It works like magic. I have sensitive skin and it suits me very well." —shahid

Promising review: "I am not usually one to buy products that aren't stupid expensive for my skin because I have had so many problems with acne and dryness and sensitivity that I don't mind the splurge. But, lost my job during COVID and had to find affordable alternatives, and this was one of them. I'm pleasantly so happy with this item; I feel like I've been missing out. I love all the ingredients in this and am hoping they never stop making this exact product except to improve it even more. The niacinamide must have cleared up my skin because this stuff works like magic for daily use, and the barrier-building compounds in this actually work. My skin looks and feels healthier." —Pavel 

Promising review: "I ordered this oil to help get rid of scars and stretch marks on my legs and WHAT THE HECK?! It worked within two weeks! I had stretch marks on my thighs, and they are now completely gone! I have a bunch of scars and dark spots on my legs, and they vanished! :) I put on the product just before I go to bed, and it works like magic! :) It also smells amazing, and it’s great for sensitive skin!" —Maria
