I had some kind of reaction when I used this. Firstly, I started to flake and peel around my mouth and nose, and then I got a rash there. Secondly, I woke up really warm and red all over my cheeks and chin. I had patched this and it all seemed fine, so I'm unsure what I'm reacting to - maybe the alcohol? Sad thing is, my forehead looked great and had not reacted at all. I think this might be good, just not for my skin. I'll be giving this to a friend instead.
