I've had some reasonable results with an OTC hormone facial hair control cocktail..
..but I think that was more likely down to the spiro than the E content.

The stuff reduces my susceptibility to skin irregularities... OK...spots if you must...
and I went from dark stubble in 6 hrs, to fair stubble in 24 hrs. Not dramatic, but useful...
The skin condition thing is a well documented effect of topical spironolactone along
with some suggestion of hair re-growth effects if used on the scalp.
I don't think you will get any other visible results unless you are on other medication or
have a very large bank account and literally cake the stuff on every night.

Allpication method is also critical for a lot of these creams (and poorly documented with most)
