"i used hexachlorophene before it was taken off the market.  i used it once and it burned my face so badly i had to see a dermatologist for months and repeatedly have my face scraped   and wrapped like a mummy. i wasn&#039;t the only one in my family to use it. three of us used it at the same time. we all had a chemical burn but mine was worse because  my skin was much  lighter. the company then came out with phiso-hex. i  never used it, but i would suggest to use extreme caution or better yet find something without hexachlorophene in it."
