Very very useful this is. I have tried them all as i had very bad pimples story. Cinnamon and honey paste worked best for me. But it gives a very strong burning sensation for upto 20 minutes of application and then the dries out completely and becomes stretchy. After rinsing one can feel the difference. I usually rub an ice piece after rinsing. The burning sensation will make one lacrimate like anything like an onion being cut.
