I can NEVER find the tubes locally and their pump dispenser wastes most of the product. I have actually run out treating one outbreak, a tube lasts for a year and usually expires before I finish it. Abreva is the only one with the active ingredient docosonal sold in the US, no generics exist that I have found. The look-a-like, sound-a-like products do nothing, this one seems to kill the virus. The menthol ones help finish the healing of the wound after the virus is dead.

I have used this item maybe twenty times total. I have followed all the appropriate care instructions. It just decided to crap out on me. The motor still works, but the blade is jacked up. It acts like a trimmer that has been dropped on the blade, but I know this is not the case as I am the only one to use it and have never dropped it. I am very disappointed that this product did not have any durability.

I stopped all my other skin care routines ( Proactive, Epionce) and started using this scrub and coconut oil only! It was a risk, but I was tired of overpriced products and breaking out. I couldn't be happier. My breakouts have become very very minimal. I have a break-out prone T-zone and Keratosis Pilaris on my cheeks and neck. I realize the idea of rubbing coconut oil on your face sounds insane, but between this Murad scrub and the coconut, my skin feels great. Having spend hundreds of dollars on other skin care products, this stuff is worth a shot. Just don't forget the coconut oil since in my experience, it's a bit drying (most likely due to my Keratosis).

This made me break out even more. wont be buying again, EVER. After reading the great reviews I was looking forward to this, big letdown
