Neutrogena Fight & Fade

Sadly, yet another miracle in a bottle (or in this case, a tube) fails to live up to its promises.
Neutrogena's Fight & Fade Gel claims to both fight breakouts and fade the red spots left behind with a combination of salicylic acid and alpha hydroxy acids. It neither fought nor faded a thing, just lost me eight dollars. After a week of day and night applications, I had a new zit, my other blemishes hadn't healed any faster than they would have if I had just ignored them, and there was no noticeable difference in the red remnants of pimples past. The gel also does not work well under makeup; it peels up and makes blemishes more apparent.

A big thumbs down all around.
