I've never had bad skin before
I'm in my early 30s, and I've been breaking out with pimples on my face for the past few years. I've never had bad skin before, but I'm back in school and working full time, so maybe the stress is causing my breakouts. Anyway, I've tried SO MANY treatment options: salicylic acid products, benzoyl peroxide treatments, charcoal soap, sodium bentonite clay mask, oil facial wash, and finally a prescription for tetracycline. The only treatment that worked for me was the prescription, BUT it makes birth control pills INEFFECTIVE!!! No thanks, I'm not getting pregnant for the sake of having a clear face. So I finally stumbled across this sulfur-based product at Walmart this week. Wow, I'm so impressed and thankful I found this little tube of beige goo.<br /><br />I used it as a spot treatment the very first night I purchased it. My two forehead pimples that previously became gooey (again) overnight were dry! The next morning I used the creme all over my face, under my foundation. Again, my pimples stayed dry throughout the day, AND the overall oiliness of my skin was much improved! Finally! I think I've found something that actually works. Happy dance!!<br /><br />Note, it does NOT provide much coverage (for me, anyway). But I just applied my normal concealer over this product, and it worked beautifully. Because the pimple stayed dry, I didn't have to reapply concealer.<br /><br />It does have a *slightly* unpleasant odor, but I only smell it occasionally. I doubt anybody else can smell it unless they're, like, licking your face or are sitting WAY within your bubble of personal space.<br /><br />I'm so happy the sulfur is helping my skin. I've even ordered a few more sulfur products (a soap, a cream, and a mask), which I'm anxious to start using.
