Be careful with this if you have really sensitive skin. My skin is very reactive and highly sensitive. I have acne prone skin and this irritated my skin really bad

Cured my fungal acne and prevents flare ups! Nizoral was way too harsh for my skin. I used this 10 min every single day for 3 weeks. I had no barrier issues because I followed it up with a raw manuka honey mask (umf 20+) right after for 1-3 hours. The manuka honey helps so much with the drying side effects of sulfur. It also helps treat FA/acne because it has antifungal, antibacterial, and Show more

I've never had an issue with this product being too harsh.
It's not even that drying (you can sometimes feel like a "film" dry down on your skin if you put on too much, but it's not the skin that's drying out.)

I don't understand the hype of PC 2% BHA when stridex is not only
- much cheaper
- much easier to find and get your hands on (it's at every dollar store!)
- comes already on pads Show more
