Summary
Maximum Strength Acne Gel Cream from Good Molecules is formulated with 2% salicylic acid and advanced retinoid to clear up and help prevent new acne blemishes, pimples, blackheads, or whiteheads.
Benefits
- Lightweight gel cream delivers salicylic acid deep into the pores to eliminate most acne blemishes, pimples, blackheads, or whiteheads.

Key Ingredients
- 2% Salicylic Acid (maximum over-the-counter strength) penetrates pores to remove the buildup of dead skin and impurities, clearing up existing acne blemishes and allowing the skin to heal.

Clean the skin thoroughly before applying this product. Cover the entire affected area with a thin layer one to three times daily. Because excessive drying of the skin may occur, start with one application daily, then gradually increase to two or three times daily if needed or as directed by a doctor. If bothersome dryness or peeling occurs, reduce application to once a day or every other day.
Precautions: For external use only. When using this product, skin irritation and dryness are more likely to occur if you use another topical acne medication at the same time. If irritation occurs, only use one topical acne treatment at a time. Keep out of eyes, ears, and mouth. In case of contact with eyes, rinse thoroughly with water. Keep out of reach of children. If swallowed, get medical help or contact a Poison Control Center right away.

Simple product with good results
This product is not flashy or boastful. It doesn't smell perfumy. Come to think of it, it doesn't really smell like much of anything I can think of to be honest. What this product is for me is highly effective with daily use after using an acne cleanser to combat and control adult acne. The price is...

NOT fungal acne friendly!
I always liked the good molecules line but this one dissapointed me😭found out there was 5 fungal acne triggers to this product and I believe made my acne worse instead. I have combo, sensitve, acne prone skin.

Did not clear up acne
I bought this product to help clear my acne on my face. After using for many days, it did not work, and I think it created more than what was there before.
Didn't work for me
I've gone through almost the entire tube appling this every night and have seen no difference in clearing up old breakouts or preventing new ones. 2 stars because it at least feels nice on the skin!
A lifesaver for this bride to be!
I started having major break outs- clusters and almost cystic acne. I spent mornings and night after night with face washes and pimple patches. A month from my wedding and I was desperate so I found this product and im soo glad I did!!! I seen results in almost under a week its been so great!
Would buy again…if it was needed !!
Great product. Saw a difference immediately, works on body too (but not as well) !!!
Effective treatment!
Out if any other acne treatments I have tried this one has worked the best and the quickest! It doesn't dry out my skin or anything which is a big plus too!

- Q
Will this work on Hyperpigmentation and textured skin? It leaves a red spot when the pimple is gone and leaves a dark spot. Will this product solve the issue? What can I pair it with so its not drying, over exfoliating, and irritating? (niacinamide, azelaic acid, alpha arbutin, etc)
- Asked by h
- Official Answer By Good Molecules - Brand EngageThis cream helps to unclog pores and reduce the occurrence of breakouts. It also contains an advanced retinoid that helps to smooth textured skin. You can safely pair this with our Daily Brightening Serum which contains hyaluronic acid to help hydrate the skin and arbutin to help with hyperpigmentation.
