Hi
I accidentally applied gel to broken area of skin - I only realised about 20 mins later, rinsed the broken area with cold water, is this a problem?
If so, how?
Thanks

Hi Dandelion. This happened to you in May too and the advice then was that it wasn't really clear as to why it's not advisable to apply it to broken skin but I'm sure it means not to do that regularly rather than just accidentally as a one-off. Broken skin may allow the gel to absorb more quickly plus it might sting.

Try not to worry.

Thanks Taz, I do feel reassured about your post. Sting very minimal, that was the thing that Brough it to my attention, much appreciated 💓

It's ok. I remembered that it had happened before and did a post search to hopefully reassure you.
