Condom usages are still taboo in many countries but Cambodian women have discovered a new way of life for Condoms.

Cambodian women have found a unique way to cure acne - a condom lubricant designed for sex workers and gay men.

Number One Plus, a water-based lubricant produced by Helath organisation Population Services International (PSI), is an excellent cure for acne, 29-year-old vendor Tep Kemyoeurn told.

"After I used it for three days, all of my acne dried up and went away. Many people believe in it," Telegraph quoted her, as saying.

Khen Vanny, 29, from Phnom Penh, said women of all ages have taken to using the lubricant to get rid of spots.

"It is very effective. Some people don't believe in it but people who do really get a good result," she said, adding: "My youngest sister and my aunt use it too."

Another woman told Khmer-language Kampuchea Thmey newspaper that she had used many kinds of medicine to treat acne but none had worked.

"After that my friends, who work at garment factories in Phnom Penh, advised me to apply the lubricant from Number One Plus condoms on my face every night," she told the paper.

"And just within three to four nights, the acne on my face gradually and then totally disappeared," she added.

Multiple application of a product is good for sales ad Profit.

My Grand Mother swore on a Swedish herb mix to cure about every thing including brocken bones.

My Grand Father was taken by Olbas a German Potion of Herbs and believed it would even cure cancer, maybe why both lived so long.

they had faith.

Condoms cost so much ... how many rupees now ?

I suggest you forget the condoms and just take more Soma ...

Sanjay, you've done it this time! Now we're going to get a bunch of pimply highschool boys rushing off to the local brothel so they can get facials and all that other stuff they do in a brothel.

Sanjay Jha, I like this story. It's good stuff.

Thanks. I'll tell my nephew. Sounds cheaper than the dermatologist he sees regularly, and it must be safe to try it since the stuff is made to rub on sensitive parts. Tee-hee.
