I bought this thing while I was visiting India about a year ago, and it was just horrible. My skin felt extremely twitchy after I used it. There was a perpetual feeling of discomfort and overdryness. I would not recommend this to anyone! It just messes up your skin. Also, I started getting pimples on my face. I have never had any pimples and after maybe a few uses, I started getting pimples! DONT use this product if you want your facial skin to remain healthy!
