1)      Himalayas Herbals- Acne-N-Pimple Cream 30g

My Reviews:
The Likes:

2)      The cream is powdery soft makes it very easy to apply
3)      The texture is creamy thus a pea size amount is enough, product would last long.

     The DisLikes:
      1) Works pretty slow

      My Verdict:
      This product is just for controlling and preventing pimples NOT actually healing them. I usually pricked on my acneS thus resulting them into an inflaming REDDISH one but this cream can actually reduce and soothe the inflammation
