I have seen excellent results on my complexion. but the skin developed red boils which has now turned to black spots on my face - this happened after 6 months since i started using the cream and the black spots are still on my face, is there a way to get rid of this? also can i continue to use this combination? as i am kind of addicted to my complexion now, kindly reply.
