A member asked:
What cream is good to use if you have acne? what would be best to use: palmers cocoa butter or simple cleanser cream?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Manage your acne: These creams won't help. Topical benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid, or a topical retinoic acid preparation, will actually work though they are not pleasant. If these don't clear you in two weeks, get with your physician to add a prescription-strength Rx.
