Bought this buffering lotion after purchasing the drying lotion and having great success. I alternate them nightly. There is a complete difference in my skin after 2 weeks! No longer getting regular breakouts on my chin and my skin looks markedly clearer. I use the drying lotion on any bumps that start to appear and they are literally gone in a day. I alternate every other night with the buffering lotion to keep the area clear and bacteria free. My chin has given me problems for years due to hormonal breakouts and this line has been a miracle help!
