I always get hair trapped under my skin. TK the point where it looks like I didn’t do a good job shaving my bikini line. But the hairs are growing just beneath the surface of my skin. This is a game changer. My bikini area looks so much better without the trapped hairs. Where was this my whole life. Worth the money. My skin is softer too!

NOTE: I've only been using this for about a week at this point.I always had troublesome [acne, eczema, KP] skin, but it was mostly on my face. However, my skin all over has been slowly changing over these passed couple years - seemingly more oily and dehydrated - and since starting a very active/fast-paced janitorial job last year, it's exacerbated all these issues on my body. So I've been searching for specific products to overhaul my entire body routine and so far this is the first one to give me any positive results - and so fast ! Nightly, I slather it on and it very literally feels 'weightless' [didn't expect that @ first]. My skin felt smoother initially and its only been evening out more and more since. Current breakouts have been dissolving, and I haven't had any new ones that I can tell. It also seems to deeply, truly hydrate, as my skin is particularly parched after a thorough cleanse, so I'm hoping w continued use that this will help curb excess oil production.I'm very particular about ingredients, and these ingredients and their order are pretty good, which ultimately made me decide to try it out. I originally came across the AHA 'Lotion' which lead me to this BHA 'Treatment'. I just wanna point out if yu're iffy about which one to get, BHA's cut through oil, therefore go deeper in the skin to cleanse - which is why I chose it considering my skin is oily, sweating for 8 hours, and then dehydrated, creating over-compensation of more oils. AHA's don't go as deep, but they're still very effective and refreshing w less possible irritation for a drier or super sensitive skin, and a more frequent exfoliating treatment. I think it's worth a try - a little truly goes a long way [considering the star ingredient is an acid, gotta get used to NOT slathering yur body in a thick, greasy layer, lol] and this is a decent sized container.:: UPDATE 6.20.2018 :: Rating is still the same ! I'm only just meow getting to the end of it. My KP is pretty much gone, noticeably creeping through when I get lazy, and breakouts are manageable, few and far between, and/or cycle in and out very quickly. The routine I've found best with it is alternating nights with this [layered on top of an oil, especially in the winter time] and a body butter [thinly in the summer], combined with using a body brush in the shower on my specifically-KP-troubled areas every night after work. Though I was trying to avoid such an intense routine that could potentially cause unnecessary damage, I actually found that with all the activity at work, combined with the uniform and various chemicals I'm exposed to, this routine in its entirety is very beneficial - but then chilling out on the vigorous exfoliation on the days I haven't run around like a chicken w it's head chopped off, wielding a mop or industrial vacuum. Point being that it's not going to be a miracle worker, but it does exactly what it says it will, with the added bonus of actually being a pleasant texture that isn't heavy, but still moisturizing, and soaks in a timely manner.
