Definitely keeping this stuff around...
Sorry this is gonna be gross, but needs to be said in order to describe why I'm loving this stuff.....I had a deep, multi-chambered staff infection under my arm. It was constantly "leaking," and looked so gross, it made wearing tank tops or sleeveless shirts impossible (not to mention making it impossible to keep the area clean and dry). I'd been to the Dr. a couple of times for it, and both times they gave me a tiny tube of antibiotic cream that barely started to heal it before running out and allowing the infection to come back worse than before. I came across this product in a review for a different thing I'd tried, and by this point I was basically at the "what the hell it can't hurt" stage....I've been using it for 8 days and the infection is almost gone! It made it look worse from about days 3-5, but it was because it basically brought everything to a head and allowed all the nasty gunk to drain out, so it can finally heal. I've also avoided deodorant in order to avoid irritating the area further while it's healing, and since it kills the bacteria that usually causes BO, I haven't had any smelly issues.
In addition to that, my 11 year old son suddenly had a massive breakout on his forehead and nose, and using this twice a day for just 3 days has cleared most of it up. He's happy with it as well!
Only reason I'm not giving it 5 stars is because it does stain clothes/towels. It would be awesome if they could make it without the dye. Even so, I will definitely be re-ordering.
