i can't tell you ladies how pleased i am with the mama lotion. i use it to even out my complexion, to reduce the size of my pores, to combat blemishes and it seems to be slowing down my facial hair growth! this product is my hg skin treatment! i totally love it and don't know how i managed with out it! i still only use it on the areas that have problems, but my skin tone is more balanced now and my breakouts are gone within a day or two. i would suggest that you use it no more than every other day, but this is the best my skin has looked and felt for quite some time.
