I have been in love

I have been in love with this product for over a decade. I had horrible acne until after I had kids and this worked great back in my 20s. Now that my kids are experiencing acne I'm purchasing it for them and it works great for them as well. I've done ALL the acne meds, Rx and over the counter. I have even done Accutane in my teens. This drying lotion isn't preventative but it will dry up acne quick. Def a must have in the medicine cabinet.
