A member asked:

Does moisturizing gel work ad good as cream (on face)?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Moisturizers: Moisturizers often do no more than cause acne. If you are trying to make your skin smooth, I suggest using an aquaglycolic tonor or astringent. This will remove the debris from the skin that makes the face seem rough.
