Review (5/5): Breakouts Cleared Up Quicker & Seems to Keep Breakouts Away!
This comes with an outer product box. The tube is a squeeze tube that has a cap that flips open and closed.
The box says that this is “for dry to normal skin with light to moderate acne.” It says, “sulfur-enhanced benzoyl peroxide penetrates deeply to loosen pore-clogging debris and hardened oils while killing bacteria and soothing inflammation. This has 5% benzoyl peroxide in it as the active ingredient and 3% sulfur as an inactive ingredient to fight acne. I really liked that it listed the percentage of each in the product.
This is a medium consistency cream. It glides onto the skin easily, absorbs quickly, and doesn’t leave any stickiness or residue. It says to apply this sparingly to affected areas once or twice daily as needed. It says that dryness and light peeling may occur during the first few weeks of usage. I used this as instructed, sparingly on affected areas, and chose to sometimes use it twice a day and sometimes only once a day. If I was going out and wearing makeup, I didn’t apply this in the morning, only at night. If I wasn’t going to be wearing makeup and was staying home, then I applied it twice a day (morning and night). I don’t have sensitive skin. I have normal to dry skin, with some areas extremely dry. Usually when I use heavy duty acne fighting products, I get a lot of dryness in the area. I did have slight dryness in the areas I used this if I used it twice a day for a few days in a row. Like one time, I used this twice a day for 4 days in a row. I got a little bit of dryness in the areas I used it in, but after not using this product and applying a good moisturizer morning and night on the area for 2 days, the dryness was gone. After that, I didn’t use this twice a day for more than 3 days in a row. Once I started making sure to do that, I didn’t experience any more dryness.
I really liked the results with this! It really helped my breakouts go away a lot quicker than they do on their own or with other products I’ve used in the past. I also felt this helped keep breakouts away because I usually suffer from hormonal breakouts, but I started using this in those areas before I would usually get a hormonal breakout, and I didn’t get one! So, while this is on the pricier end for me, it’s definitely something I’ll purchase when I run out! And it’s definitely something I recommend if you’re suffering from breakouts!
