I don't think KP is recognised much in the UK. Anyone else find this?

On the advise of some of the sites I found I have started using Sulphur Soap, but really need advise on how to cope with the smell! I've only been using it for a week or so (and haven't seen any improvement) but even though I try to cover the smell in scented body lotion, it keeps on wafting it's way through, especially in the heat of summer! I'm sure other people can smell it! Any tips? Also, I have heard that Suphur Soap does nothing for the redness. Has anyone else found this to be the case, and if so, what did they do about it?

Also, has anyone noticed that their KP is better when their skin is warm? Like when you get out of bed in the morning?

Thanks for your help! And good luck with whatever solutions you are all trying!
