Description

  • People get bumps for many reasons, including hormonal acne, lack of exfoliating, improper cleansing, shaving or waxing, and so much more. This fast-acting spot treatment addresses all of these concerns instantly.

    Anti Bump Solution (formerly named Anti Cyst Treatment) by Renée Rouleau is a powerful spot treatment formulated to provide a quick recovery for reducing visible inflammation of stubborn cystic acne bumps that develop deep within the skin and can linger for weeks—or even months. When used at first signs of a painful bump, this non-drying, clear gel goes to work immediately to visibly reduce and calm the appearance of stubborn, painful breakouts —without the side effects of steroid shots or prescription pills. With over 250,000 units sold and 30+ years of proven results, this revolutionary product is our #1 solution for shortening the life cycle of bumps.*

    Note: Cysts should never be picked at since they develop and heal deep within the skin and are not meant to come out the surface. Avoid picking and instead apply Anti Bump Solution. It's a lot easier to conceal a closed bump with makeup than an oozing scab. Read 8 tips for preventing chin and jawline breakouts.

  • How To Use

  • To effectively use Anti Bump Solution to reduce the appearance of cystic acne and blemishes, apply one drop to clean skin as soon as cyst becomes visible. When used in the morning or evening, first perform your regular routine. Next, take a damp tissue or Q-tip and wipe the affected area clean before applying. Anti Bump Solution should be applied as the last step. Use day or night until the bump is no longer visible. This treatment can be effective for older cysts that are still lingering under the skin.

      The solution

      to a six month under the skin cyst at which I threw everything I had. Have never had anything like this and it was bad enough that I went to the dermatologist. Without success. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

      MAGIC! 🤩

      I'm 43 years old with hormonal acne- prone skin. I don't break out much, but when I do, it's usually one GIANT cystic pimple after my period. This past month was the worst one I've ever had in my life ... right on my lower cheek. Horrible. I had bookmarked this product a while back, and was desperate for anything that would help.

      This stuff is MIRACULOUS! Honestly. The reviews are legit. I went from having a throbbing, bright red, angry cyst ... to a tiny normal-sized pimple in just over a week. I did nothing else but my normal skincare routine + Anti Bump Solution (2 times per day). And I'm confident that had I started it sooner, it would have been gone even quicker. ZERO irritation or dryness.

      I will never be without this product again! #lifesaver
