A budget-friendly blemish buster

Posted Friday, July 30, 2010

A salicylic spot treatment can go for as much as $50, but there's no reason to pay such a big bill, even for the biggest blemishes.

We just discovered what has to be the most affordable spot treatment on the market: e.l.f. Zit Zapper. Like so much of the brand's makeup, this 1% salicylic acid solution is just $1.

Applied directly on pimples before bed, Zit Zapper immediately goes to work fighting back against acne, relieving redness, and bringing down swelling. The salicylic acid is supported by tea tree oil and witch hazel, and a touch of camphor keeps skin calm.

The portable packaging makes it easy to address unexpected blemishes even if you're traveling. And you should be doing a lot more of that traveling with all the money you'll save by switching to this inexpensive option!

The e.l.f. brand never ceases to amazing me. Over the years they have produced several of my favorite go-to products (including brushes) and they are always little more than a dollar or two. The ingredients in this little zapper, salicylic acid, tea tree oil, witch hazel and camphor are an awesome and proven blemish banishing combo. For a dollar, you can not lose....And, if their history is any proof, this little baby is going to be amazing. Can not wait to try it out.
