I started using this product about a month now. I did my research before buying any products. I know result takes time. So far I’m liking my result I don’t have big pimples anymore they just kinda shrinking in my opinion. I could say my face did dry up a lot and Sunscreen You Need It. I did the first day without sun screen and my face was really irritated so stay out the sun even if you wear sun screen. But remember everyone skin is different and result take time.
Thank you for your feedback
