anyone heard of this soap?
PanOxyl??
I have some real bad acne problem and this guy recommended that I use PanOxyl 5% to wash my face twice daily and that it will help me.
don't want to try any soap that comes in percentages on my face, might peel my face off.
Have you used this soap? heard of it? did it work?

it's extremely strong. Using it is kind of technical, u need a really good moisturizer that's non comedonic (sp?) and u need to know when to use it and when to stop 'cause it's gonna dry up ur facial skin. It doesn't necessaryily clear up acne , it just dries up the skin for the most part. If u don't have very oily skin I suggest u just use something like neutrogena oil free wash.
