I hope you get your shipment soon. Saw palmetto has been doing great things for my skin when I take it consistently!

I am happy you found a solution. So if you have a hairy face as a female, does that mean you could have PCOS? I have always had tons of peach fuzz on my face, in fact I am a pretty hair ga...

Day 8 Update: I did a chemical peel last night using salicylic acid 20%, glycolic acid 40%, and lactic acid (60%?) because my face was looking dull. This morning my face looks much better but I still ...
