The vast majority of blemish-related skincare products are marketed towards teenagers who, to be fair, do tend to suffer the most from acne and other skin imperfections. However, it’s a little-known fact that 40% of adults also struggle with blemish-prone skin, which requires different care compared to teenagers.

This is where Dr Sam Bunting’s Flawless Neutralising Gel comes into play, retailing at £30 for 30ml. For those wanting to test its efficacy, there’s a 7ml tester available for £9, and a subscription option every six weeks saves 20% on the 30ml purchase. The product has become a sensation on TikTok, with numerous satisfied customers sharing their positive experiences.

After 39 iterations, the gel formula has been fine-tuned to address adult skin concerns such as blemishes, acne, redness, and dark spots. It contains 5% Azelaic Acid to combat redness, cleanse pores, and fight blemishes; 2% Salicylic Acid to reduce inflammation and remove dead skin cells; and 0.5% Bakuchiol, a natural alternative to retinol, which helps maintain blemish resistance over time.

Additionally, the gel is formulated with 5% Squalene to provide deep and lasting hydration, ensuring a moisturising effect while targeting skin issues. Designed to minimise irritation for a wide range of skin types, this ‘miracle’ gel has garnered almost 800 five-star reviews, reports the Mirror.

One user, Heidi, praised the product, saying: “I find this product so effective and really doesn’t dry out my skin like most acne products too,” and added: “It really is a miracle product, so happy to have found something that actually works!”.

“Honestly, the most amazing product I’ve come across ever helps maintain a great skin barrier for those with sensitive or acne-prone skin while eliminating and preventing spots,” said Yasmin about the Flawless Neutralising Gel. “If there’s any product I’d recommend, it’s this one.” Ashleigh added: “A game changer for acne-prone skin.”

Saying ‘this saved my skin’, Michelle said: “I’ve always struggled with breakouts, but since using this, they are less frequent, and it prevents them from getting to the pimple stage as well as becoming inflamed. It immediately takes the redness down after one application and I couldn’t be without this gel now.”

However, not all users have experienced transformative effects. One user shared on Trustpilot: “I like the products although doesn’t seem to make a huge difference to my skin like it seems to for others,” leaving a three-star review.

While the Miracle Acne Body Cleanser at Superdrug for £24.99 and the Revolution Pro Miracle Vegan Collagen Cleansing Balm available at Boots for £15 offer alternative solutions, the Flawless Neutralising Gel, priced reasonably and backed by numerous five-star testimonials, is touted as a standout choice, particularly for adults battling with persistent skin blemishes.
