Good spot acne treatments that aren’t too harsh on skin.

Looking for an acne treatment to put on preferably before bed over night for larger bumps or active breakouts.

@SamCullen 

I have two suggestions that don't dry out the skin. One is masque vivant by biologique recherge (it works better if you use an acid toner before), but it smells nasty - like vegemite. I wouldn't use that one to sleep.

 

The second one is SUNDAY RILEY - Saturn Sulfur Acne Treatment Mask. It doesn't smell fantastic, but it's easy to ignore the scent. I do, on occasion, use this before bed.

Add an option, I also like the KIEHL'S SINCE 1851 - Blue Herbal Spot Treatment

I find it clears things but but is very gentle.  Since it isn't as tough as some other treatments, it can take an extra day or two to work!

@SamCullen for anything that has already come to a head PEACE OUT - Acne Healing Dotsdo an awesome job of sucking everything out! They will totally flatten it over night. For anything a bit deeper I like Mario Badescu Drying Lotion Original

@SamCullen The Clinique one is my favorite! Takes care of blemishes in a couple of days.
