Must i cleanse my face every time i use spot treatment?

i have a ';stress acne spot treatment'; from neutrogena, and i wash my face and cleanse before i put it on in the morning, but do i have to do this everytime i put it on for the rest of the day? it says i can apply it up to 3 times.Must i cleanse my face every time i use spot treatment?
I use Neutrogena as well, it's really good and it does work ( takes some time though, but what doesn't?)


yes you do have to clean your face every time, if only with water and cotton wool, ( dry it afterwards as well)


Also DO NOT use it 3 times a day, it will dry your face and you will burn your face, and that takes longer to get rid of than spots ( trust me it happened to me)


Once a day is enough, twice a day once or twice a week NO MORE.Must i cleanse my face every time i use spot treatment?
You don't have to cleanse your face completely, you just need to wipe the oil from the area with maybe a wet washcloth, or blotting papers! I found that works very well rather than washing my face every single time.
