Key Benefits
Kills Bacteria: Benzoyl Peroxide (BPO) is an antibacterial agent that kills P. acnes bacteria inside the pores—the primary cause of inflammatory acne.
Unclogs Pores: it helps shed dead skin cells to prevent sebum (oil) from getting trapped.
Clears Inflammatory Acne: It is most effective against red, painful bumps and pustules rather than blackheads.
Prevents New Breakouts: Regular use keeps the bacterial load on the skin low, stopping new pimples before they start.
No Antibiotic Resistance: Unlike topical antibiotics, bacteria do not become resistant to Benzoyl Peroxide.
How to Use (Step-by-Step)
Because 10% is the maximum over-the-counter strength, it can be drying. Follow these steps to avoid irritation:
Wet the Skin: Dampen your face or body with lukewarm water.
Apply a Small Amount: Use a dime-sized amount and gently massage it into the affected areas for 1–2 minutes.
Tip: Do not just wash and rinse immediately. The "contact time" allows the medicine to penetrate the pore.
Rinse Thoroughly: Wash off completely with water. Pat dry with a white towel (see Warning below).
Moisturize Immediately: Apply a lightweight, oil-free moisturizer (like CeraVe PM or Neutrogena Hydro Boost) to damp skin to prevent the "tight" feeling.
Apply SPF (Daytime): Benzoyl peroxide makes your skin more sensitive to the sun. Always use sunscreen during the day.
