I actually loved this product while I was using it. It smells very medicinal and somehow 'feels' like it's killing bacteria. Unfortunately it completely dries out your skin, and is, in my opinion, WAY too harsh for acne prone skin. I've since overhauled my skin care routine once I realized that acne is caused by inflammation, and needs skin care products that CALM the skin, not strip it of all natural oils. Try using natural soaps for cleansing, and certain oils (jojoba, tamanu, etc) for moisturizing.
