Does not cause sun sensitivityConsitchy for a while after applying Light white powder can get onto dark clothes, you end up using alot of it so make sure you get 180g for 4 weeks for one application a day and double that for 2 applications a day. can lighten skin (I like this but I know its a con for some ppl, still doesnt bleach anything else) may be expensive to buy if you aren't on the NHS or if you don't have insurance as you will need alot ofit for body acne.I would reccomend this to anyone who has body acne… Vosene : Anti Dandruff Shampoo 4.0ProsReduces bumps and acne in general reduces inflamation Much less irritation than BP If you get dandruff you can use it for that too Helps a little with ingrown hairs too Very very cheap (contains salicylic acid but does not cost anywhere near as much as salicylic acid products aimed at acne)ConsDid not clear acne completely dried out hand skin if used dailyIts well worth trying this, though I would not go… Finacea : Azelaic Acid (15%) Gel 5.0Pros-It cleared my moderate face, jawline, neck, chest, arm and bacne up completely... -the tingle reduces to pretty much nothing once your skin is used to it -the white powder has a slightly cosmetic effect if you are pale -slightly but noticably reduces redness immediately (could be the powdery residue) -can apply makeup over it easily -much less irritating than BP (I can use this on my neck!! my neck is now finally clear!!)Cons-It took 4 months to have an effect and 8 months to totally clear me up -Leaves a white powder residue which can leave deoderant like lines on clothes (they come off with water just like deoderant lines) -tingle can be uncomfortable at firstafter 12 years of acne, I will use this forever!…
