Thank you so much. I think i will cut down on how often i use the kavi coral and then perhaps switch to the aqua soap. I will post the results.

Thank you so much for the fast reply. I take it that you believe I should not persevere with this product then? The salicylic acid allergy is an interesting theory however I have not had the typical red itchy rash that I get with other treatments with the coral soap and also the most recent reaction i had was to proactive which is benzoyl peroxide. Do you have any idea as to why that would be? If you still think i should try something without salicylic acid what would be the benefit of using something with half the sulphur content vs the whole sulphur content as you stated the sulphur contents of all your alternative suggestions. Again I really appreciate your advice. Cathy

Hi there, I have been using the Coral Kavi soap bar for a few weeks now and my acne has been getting significantly worse. I have small bumps covering my forehead (they are barely noticeable but they weren't there before) and clusters of large painful red bumps on my lower face around the chin area. I have hear of acne treatments purging your acne (where the acne actually gets worse before it gets better) so is this what i should be seeing after 2 weeks? Should I be waiting it out for a few more weeks? The soap isn't drying my skin out or anything and the only other thing i have been doing is trying to spot treat the individual spots with a clean and clear spot treatment gel. Also if i should be carrying on with the soap is there any way to reduce the inflammation because the spots are very painful. about myself: 24 years old. female. teenage acne which moved from t-zone to lower face in adulthood. have been living in very humid climate for 2 years which made my acne very bad. sensitive skin which has broken out into a very red itchy rash after 3 day of using certain products (neutrogena, proactive, oxy). fairly oily skin all over. Thanks for any advice you can give me. Cathy
