Not really. Rubbing alcohol will remove the oils which protect the skin from drying out. If you are having problems with acne, be careful when using rubbing alcohol to remove excess oil. Your skin needs some protection from the atmosphere,so completely removing all skin oil can lead to inflamion, dryness, and cracking of the skin. You are probably better off using a good soap on a regular basis to keep your skin clean. i use it for my face it clears up my skin the only thing is if you use it on a constant basis it will dry out your skin
