I am 66 years old and still get what I call stress acne on my chin area. I received this item as a free sample, started using it and love it. I ordered the pump bottle and have not had a breakout in a couple of months now. I am so happy I finally found a product that works well for me.

I had a very irritated rash pop up on my face within hours of applying this spray. I'm not allergic to any ingredient in this, so I can only conclude it was too drying and therefore irritating to my skin. I've been dealing with dryness and a rash on and off ever since, for 1.5 weeks now. This is meant for moist wounds and macerated areas. I have a lot of contact dermatitis allergies and this Avene Cicalfate product was the only one safe for me. I know others can use this without problems but for me it was way too drying for the face.
