this product stings, but sometimes not? idk how to explain it, but all i can say is, it did nothing to my skin. In all fairness, this small container lasted me a good 3-4 months, how? well i dont apply daily, i only do it 3 days a week at night, and i only use a retinol-sized application. honestly, i had such high hopes for this prod as it has a bunch of ceramides in it, assuming it will not be Show more
It works, but rarely... Sudocrem does better job with treating sudden blemishes.
