My boyfriend had been using this for quite some time and I see his bacne has improved drastically HOWEVER this alone isn’t enough and has caused other issues and a new form of acne, instead of cystic it is now regular whiteheads and bacterial acne that is itchy. I am getting him a PH balanced body wash to use throughout the week and use this max 3 times a week to help exfoliate but not over do it. Also follow up with a moisturizer to prevent bacteria and dry skin.
