Since I've only used this twice, I suppose I'm not

giving it a fair chance. But I won't be using it a

third time. I have combination/oily skin (oilier in

summer) with periodic (pun intended) breakouts. I used

this during a couple of breakout periods, and it didn't

do anything that it promised to do: ie, it did NOT "actually

dry up pimples...and even help shrink enlarged

pores." What it did do was to seriously irritate my skin.

It stung on application, and afterwards I had to use a lot

of moisturizer to soothe things down (which didn't help my oily skin at

all! I usually go very easy on the moisturizer when I have the oilies).

The label boasts that this was "developed by a

dermatologist." When? and where? Caveat emptor!
