  • 100 Stars! Amazing Benzoyl Peroxide. Gentle and Effective.
Size: 1.35 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This benzoyl peroxide is amazing. I use it daily to prevent and control hormonal breakouts. I've been battling hormonal breakouts since puberty about 3 decades ago. There weren't a lot of options then. I thought Proactiv and Clean & Clear Persagel 10 were my holy grail when I first discovered benzoyl peroxide and used them religiously throughout my 20s and early 30s to achieve clear skin. But thanks to aging, my skin started to change. It was less oily, more sensitive, and drier. I began to use a lower percentage which was working fine until about 2 years ago. It seems that I am going through "second" puberty and hormones are raging again. The lower percentage wasn't enough to control the acne and now my old skin cannot handle a higher percentage of benzoyl peroxide. Until I found this and gave it a try. It goes on so smoothly, with no white powder or grit. It doesn't bleach my clothes or sheets. It doesn't dry or irritate my skin even though it is 5.5%. Feels gentle like 2.5%. And the other ingredients actually make it feel like a soothing and moisturizing jelly when I first put it on and they make my skin so smooth. It controls my acne perfectly. This stuff works like 10% but feels like 2.5%. It's amazing! Definitely worth the price. And it's FSA eligible. ... show more

  • Yuuup gamechanger.
Size: 1.35 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
i was using neutrogena spot treatment before this and good god i’ve been baptized in the wellspring of french thermal water and can never go back to the way i was before. best spot treatment i’ve EVER tried. effective in one use, but even my mega sensitive skin can handle using this twice in one day (for one day at a time—one day on, one day off for example). NOT overly drying. simply gorgeous 💋 ... show more

  • Works!! Just be careful...
Size: 1.35 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
So far this is helping with my hormonal acne. I am in my early 30s, I was formerly on Accutane (about 10 years ago) and have been on the pill ever since which kept my acne under control. When I went off the pill this year I experienced horrible acne as a result. I have extremely sensitive skin and had bad reactions to benzoyl peroxide in the past (with welts and swollen eyelids just like the photos people have shown). But I was desperate to find an effective product. The secret, I've found, is to only use this during the day. Otherwise, it winds up rubbing off on your pillowcase and into your eyes. This product is NOT good for eyelids lol. What I do is mix a tiny bit in with my morning moisturizer. I wash it off at night and then combine my moisturizer with Retin-A to wear while I sleep. I get some slight irritation still, a little bit of itchyness, but my breakouts have decreased significantly (even during my period). I also noticed a HUGE change in the texture of my skin. Before this my forehead felt bumpy and rough no matter how much I exfoliated. After a week using this product it is crazyyy soft and smooth. Which I attribute to the LHA. Be patient (and careful) and I'm fairly confident you'll see results. UPDATE: I now swear by this product! I was patient with it and it truly paid off. My uncontrollable hormonal acne has been clear for months!! My skin is smooth and soft and I don't even have to worry about makeup or other products causing breakouts anymore as long as I use a touch of this with my moisturizer every morning. The irritation and itching has also completely stopped. HIGHLY recommend, just be sure to read my warnings above. ... show more

  • Super sensitive skin and I can use this
Size: 1.35 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I am that person who reacts to everything. I can use this and don’t seem to react. It’s worth a try for other people like me.

  • great!
Size: 1.35 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I've recommended this product to three people already and all of them love it!!! If you have clogged pores on your forehead, nose, cheeks, or chin this will get rid of that in 1-2 days! Completely smooth and clean skin! However, it's important to remember that you have to apply *very minimal* amounts in every area. Meaning, to use the thinnest layer, it's a really strong product and could irritate your face if you over-apply. Also, I strongly recommend not to use any other products for your face while using, I did and I got chemical burns so please be aware of what you pair with the product if you choose to pair anything at all. My routine while using this product is to wash my face, and then apply a very thin layer on the problem areas. I do this twice a day for three days and then return to my normal routine. I love it!!! ... show more

  • Too drying
Size: 1.35 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I started using once every other day and within a few days my whole face was flaky and peeling. No amount of moisturizer helped. If you have naturally dryer skin this probably won’t work the best for you.
