Have bad acne? Don’t know which product to use to heal that acne? Well let me give you the break down on Noxzema, so you can decide if it’s something you would want to use.

Personally, from my point of view its worth it. I’ve used this product through my early teen years and have had tremendous results. I still use Noxzema cleanser to this day. If you are to use this product use the regular brand of it, Avoid there “Citrus” products. Those contain alcohol that can be harmful to sensitive skin.

Now on the other hand I’ve heard that Noxzema is not the best product for skin care. it dries out the skin, despite how moisturizing it says it is, or how smooth it makes your skin feel. The only thing Noxzema is good for is sunburns, period. Otherwise, you are better off sticking with a system created specifically for acne that has a scrub cleanser (gentle scrub, not a heavy grit), toner and moisturizer that has salicylic acid in it…Something like clear. Now, you are tinkering with your skin and wasting your money.

Purchase a product that works, don’t try this and try that to see if it will work. That will waste your money rather than finding a product that works and sticking with it despite what your friends use. Use what works for you! But choose a product high in quality (usually a little more price wise, but worth every single penny when you find the product for you) that a dermatologist would recommend. Keep this in mind, your skin is the largest organ of your body. Everything you use on it (and even take into your body) will affect it. Treat your skin as a prized investment, because it is. It is the first thing people see on you. So take care of it properly, proper care is needed.

If you didn’t know Noxzema is a medical cream and people have had an occasion to use it for healing a detergent burn. Now I know the subject is unrelated but its definitely something to look into. I would trust that Noxzema is worth the try! The original Noxzema has menthol, which is what gives you the tingle. Menthol is a skin irritant, and the tingle is irritation, so it’s not good for sensitive skin!

The key is the product is not going to work right when you put it on your skin. You need to give it time to actually go through it’s process to break down the pimple. Even try using soap and water. If this product doesn’t interest you try using: nutrogena, almay, aveeno, or natural remedy’s. I’ve also tried these over the years.

Good Luck!
