ProActiv Repairing lotion for ingrowns

My brother's wife bought him the Proactiv 3 step system and apparently it worked for him. He found he didn't use the small repairing lotion bottle and gave it to me thinking it might help with my occasional ingrowns. I've had this about six months and I must say it does a great job of eliminating ingrown bumps - typically in a couple days, bumps disappear. If I use it once the bumps are large-ish, they disappear much quicker than if I don't (these bumps would get very large and take 3 or 3 weeks to completely go away). Only complaint is that, now that I need a refill, it appears I can only buy the entire three step system rather than just the repairing lotion. I am going to try Tendskin as an alternative.
 
Tendskin works.... but it is pricey and smelly. It's not a particularly pleasent product to use. But in my experience it works for razor bumps and burn. Of course all of those products for ingrowns and razor bumps don't work instantly. They all take a day or two to do the job they're intended for. I've always had a difficult time evaluating products like that.

I use them if I feel an ingrown coming on, if that makes sense. For me, the bump repair gel works quickly and keeps the ingrown from erupting.

Here is what the back of the Woody's bottle says:

Unclogs pores, heals irritated skin and prevents scarring. Eases razor burn shave bumps and ingrowns, while leaving your neck and face looking good.

NO FUZZ Gel formula means no cotton balls.

NO BUMPS Powerful Salicylic Acid & Panthenol stop ingrowns.

DESTROYS Bacteria fighting formula dissolves impurities that block pores.

PICK YOUR SPOT Use as treatment for trouble spots.

Isn't the whole ProActiv kit about 19.99 while TendSkin is about 15 dollars? You might as well get the whole ProActiv kit
