And can somebody pls go check the website i mentioned on the top of this message... tell em if thats the one i should get!!! i'd appreciate your help!!!

and also... sine we need to bufff the lotion and SA... maybe a MICRODERMABRASION KIT would help... since microdermabrasion makes the skin absorb the lotion... I found a personal microdermabrasion kit.. i didnt buy it yet..but do you think this will help and make results better???? its DERMANEW MICRODERMABRASION do it yourself kit, You can get it online.. either dermadoctor.com or dermanew.com

so ... pls answer my questions above... and is the WART remover necessary??? or just the carmol 20 and SAlicylic acid will do... there's so many post here that I dont know which one is right!

and pls can u give me a understandable formula... instead of the % thing... pls Im young lol ... thank you...

I got the kit you are speaking of and it did not work for me. The pads that they give you (3) peel off and then you need to order more. I put it away in the drawer. Just to let you know so you don't spend all that money.

You need 1/10 of an oz of SA powder or 2.7 grams (2 point 7 grams). You should mix the SA powder (2.7 grams) with 1/2 oz of water (distilled water). Then take that mixture and inject it into one 3oz tube of Carmol 20 and make sure you SHAKE it up real well. Also keep the mixture in the refrigerater. You can use wart remover instead of SA powder. If you use wart remover let it sit out (in a glass dish) for about an hour, then mix it with 1/2oz of distilled water. Take that mixture and mix it into the 3oz tube of Carmol 20. Make sure you shake it up alot. Hope that helps. Also I went to that site you mentioned and to be honest I am not sure if that is the same thing that my Dr. gave me a prescription for. It looks like it might be but unless I see the bottle I can say for sure. Don't be suprised if you do order it and they say you need a prescription. I had my doctor write a presciption for the SA powder then I went to Walgreens and bought the Carmol 20 and I mixed mine myself. Good Luck.

I looked at the website, and I don't think you want to order the sali acid from them. They specialize in products for science experiments, etc. I think the salicylic acid, crystal 500g is the &quot;original&quot; form. After reading this from this link <a href="http://www.factmonster.com/ce6/sci/A0843218.html">http://www.factmonster.com/ce6/sci/A0843218.html</a> it seems to explain how it makes commercial salicylic acid. I am not sure if the microdermabrasion kit would work. It seems that after putting the carmol 20 and sal acid solution on, the loofah helps the mixture along and helps get the bumps out. I don't think you would want to use the camol 20 sal acid solution with the microdermabrasion kit. I think you use a lotion or something that is specialized just for that. (more money also).When you said is the wart remover necessary, the wart remover is the salicylic acid, you use EITHER wart remover and mix yourself, or use salicylic powder and get a pharmacist to mix it for you. I hope I answered your questions or helped : ^ )
*Note, when I say carmol 20 and salicylic acid SOLUTION, I mean solution as a potion or mixture, not a solution to a problem....
