Does glycerine have any effects on pimples?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Worthless: This won't help your acne. This is a serious, chronic illness and a grave personal and professional liability. If topical benzoyl peroxide has not cleared you in two weeks, get with your personal physician who can add prescription-strength Rx.
