Beauty enthusiasts are raving about a £25 spot treatment that claims to improve blemishes overnight. The MALIN+GOETZ 10% Sulfur Paste, an overnight drying lotion, is designed to shrink spots quickly without requiring a lengthy skincare routine. It contains a blend of sulphur and salicylic acid to dry out blemishes, absorb excess oil, and target impurities beneath the skin.
Users simply dip a cotton swab into the bottle, dab it onto the breakout, and leave it on overnight. However, the brand advises using it only once a night, as over-application can cause excessive dryness. One shopper described it as their 'holy grail product', stating they have bought 25 bottles and that it is the only treatment that eliminates cysts or spots overnight.
Another reviewer noted a noticeable improvement in spot size and colour by morning, despite a slight stinging sensation upon application. However, some users with consistent hormonal acne found the serum too drying and irritating, recommending consultation with a dermatologist for persistent breakouts.
Alternative spot treatments include Hero Mighty Pimple Patches (£4.99, Boots) and CeraVe Blemish Control Gel Moisturiser (£11.99, Amazon), which target blemishes and blackheads. The MALIN+GOETZ paste is available for £25 and has garnered strong reviews for its effectiveness on occasional breakouts.
