Okay...I did a little internet searching and here's what I found. Sounds like it's used more for sensitive skin than acne prone. Interesting. Thanks for the post! HTH

It doesn't matter if it's cherry flavor does it? I wouldn't think so, but just want to make sure. I have sensitive skin so hopefully this will help me!

 

[han]

nope.

 

[Gvieve]

Yes I've heard of this. Milk of Magnesia is an excellent mask too. Very drawing.

"It contains salicylic acid, and if you put a coating on your face, let it set for a few minutes, then wash it off, and your skin will have a mega-glow that shines through even after you put on your makeup," says Irons, whose most recent book is, The World's Best Anti-Aging Secrets.

And, indeed, salicylic acid does net you a nifty face peel -- washing away dead skin cells and keeping your complexion from looking cloudy and old before its time. But does Pepto Bismol work as well as the skin care products containing salicylic acid? According to Irons, it does.

"

We like it more because it has an ingredient that coats the tummy -- which means it also coats the face, so it's milder and gentler to skin that most salicylic skin care products," says Irons.

so, what do you think? /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> it sounds interesting..
