I purchased this for my sons. They both have acne (teenagers) and they use this when the have a break out. They can dab a small amount of this product directly on the pimple. It has helped tremendously.
Mario Badesco is the HOLY GRAIL for occasional pimples and bumps! I recommend this product to friends and relatives, and am a stickler for always having a bottle in the cabinet. We all agree it is speedy, and it shrink-dries your bump. If only I knew about Drying Lotion when I was a kid! I also love the smell because it reminds me of a camphor product my Great-Grandmother used to fix all kinds of maladies.
I've been using this stuff for years and love it! I haven't found another product that works as well as this one. Gets rid of any blemishes and zits overnight.
