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 💋

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.

This product is realllyyy good for whiteheads. I’ll put this on a white head and either the next day or day after it will be risen! But I wouldn’t just put it everywhere bc it has made my skin mad sensitive and kind of burn if I put too much on!

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!!!

Visibly shrinks stubborn subcutaneous disturbances. My skin is fairly sensitive so it really burns as it is working in some spots on my face (such as around nose) while other areas are barely noticeable (eg. jaw line). A little goes a long way and the tip is perfect for distributing the right size dose.

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.
