I don't have bad skin, but when I break out, its ugly. I also panick which heighten the stress meter. Long story short, Proactive dry my face out to much, so I was not about go through a week of toture for a few pimples. So my S.O. mention using Noxzema for my pimples. He kept going on and on about it. Especially when I go through ugly breakout spells. Im like what do he know, and just blew him off. When was Noxzema Original Creme for acne it don't even have saliyac acid (sp) or Benzyol Peroxide in it, (sp), you know the stuff to dry out pimples. So days past by im using everything in my medicine cabinet, so I reach for the Noxzema, and try it out. I start feeling the tingling, and stinging and drying. I wake up the next day, and the pimple is drying out:blush:. Im like No way. I then let it sit on my face for some hours like my S.O. suggested and its drying out and shrienking. By day 4 its gone. :yep: Check this out, I had another pimple trying to form, I did the same method and its leaving, didn't even have a chance to form a head. So I had to give him his props. Of couse he was like, see I tried to tell you, blah, blah, blah..... MEN. Im sticking with Noxzema. I guess sometimes you just have to go back to the basics.
Disclaimer: This work for me, it might not work for all.

I always have Noxzema on hand. I love it. I leave it on like a mask and let it dry. I've even slept with it overnight. Only the original works. The other ones are garbage in my opinion. The one time in my life I got sunburned it worked on that too!

I guess it depends on the person because when I tried it it didn't do anything for me. The tingly menthol-y feeling was good though. I'm glad you found something that works for you

yep! I used to use it way back in the day and I think that it's what really cleared my skin up and helped to even out my complexion...I used to wash with it and, at night, apply it like a mask and, in the morning, apply a small dab back onto my skin like a moisturizer. I used to have SUPER oily skin so this never dried out my face, just my pimples...maybe I ought to pick up a jar for dd

I just picked up some of this last night and my skin was uber smooth. I also like the tingly feeling - felt like it was working (even though I'm not a need-to-feel it type o gal).
