Review: The best Benzoyl Peroxide on the market - and I've tried them all. - I've been using Acne.org's benzoyl peroxide for nigh on 16 years (!). It's shocking to me that huge corporations with deep pockets and full skincare lines can't make benzoyl peroxide better than these guys can. Who knows, maybe it's because the guy who started this brand experienced having bad acne himself. Anyway, this is really lightweight, dries quickly, leaves no residue, and is effective. My experience with many other brands is that, while they get the job done, the viscosity is too think or they dry while leaving a white sheen. No thanks. Something I had to learn the hard way is that 2.5% is AS EFFECTIVE AS 10% in clinical studies - and my own experience matches this. For too many years, I thought that the best way to get rid of acne was to nuke it with the most powerful stuff imaginable without realizing that irritation just creates more acne. Trust me, no matter how bad your acne is, 2.5% is better than 5% or 10%, counterintuitive as that may sound. I've been there. Some of the stuff people complain about - dryness, BP bleaching clothing, etc, is unfortunately par for the course when it comes to BP. Them's the breaks. Make sure you moisturize. White clothes don't get bleached, so on days I'm using this stuff, I either have a white t-shirt on or use a t-shirt from my "okay if it gets bleached" pile of cheaper stuff. The value for money is solid compared to the alternatives, although you'll pay quite a bit less if you get it directly from them vs from here.
Review: The first effect product after 13 years. - Acne entered my life when I was 11 years old. I have never found a product that is at least a little bit effective. I have tried products from 5 bucks to 60 bucks and none of them work. Although I am happy about the product, it might not work for you cuz every one is different. My condition: I got continuous break out. So my face always looks like the following: 30 non-inflamed bumps on each side of my cheek. There are 10ish pimples. Half of them look like larger inflamed bumps but they are actually inflamed. Around 5 of them are large, white, and really on the top and ready to naturally pop out. 10 bumps on the neck. 2-3 of them are inflamed. Pro. 1) Effective in killing P. acne bacteria. For non-inflammatory acne like little bumps, the product is awesome. I got around 30ish bumps on each side of my cheek. They were visible if I stare at myself 40cm-50cm (1.2ft-1.5ft i guess) from the mirror. After one week, all of them shrink. Most of them are only visible if I scrutinize myself within 15cm from the mirror (4inch-5inch i guess). And the overall amount reduces to 15ish really tiny bumps on each side of my cheek. 2) I think it also helps the healing process for the existing inflammatory acne. BP can never kill the existing pimples since they are already inflamed. But it helps my already-naturally-popped pimples turn in to dry scabs quicker than they usually do. Note I am talking about those wound that already closed. BP can never applied to an open wound. As soon as the scabs go away, my nice and new skin are perfect. The redness remain so that I still suffer from even tone but it is nicer to have acnes. 3) Dryness. (This might not apply to you if your face is dry or sensitive.) Benzoyl peroxide is a anti-bacteria as well as a drying agent. This percentage of BP dries my faces a little bit to control the excess oil but not too drying to make the face producing extra oil. 4) It stops me from picking and popping my acne! The pain of apply BP on an open wound thwarts me away from popping my pimples. 5) It makes me wash my hands more frequently. (BP is a bleach agent...so it actually help me to improve my personal hygiene habits. Con. 1) Not so effective on my neck. I can tell the bumps are smaller but not as impressive as the change on my face. The overall number of bump does not decline at all. (Maybe they are already inflamed so BP cannot help. Or maybe 2.5% is not enough for neck.) Let me wait for two more weeks and conclude. 2) Itch! I have rough skins so I usually do not feel any pain. All the irritating OTC products are not irritating from my perspective. (I mean those Sal Aid 2%, Ratinoid, Alcohol products. I do not mean those chemical peeling products...) Good news is that the itch usually lasts about 5-10 minutes. It is still bearable. And I do not need a fan to calm down my face. Let me update later if I could build up a tolerance against itch. 3) The waiting time. Dan suggests 5-15 min waiting time which I think it is not completely correct. The waiting time is crucial but it is suffice if your face is dried and there is not excess water/product. In my case 2-3 min will be enough for the time between cleaning and putting BP. And 5-10 min is enough between BP and moisturizer. 15 min will over dry your face. For dry skin, this makes your skin less hydrated, speeding up the aging process. For oily skin, the over-dryness makes our cells produce extra oil, making a better environment for P.acne bacteria. Overall it is a good product. But every one is different. Good luck.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: it takes 25 minutes in the morning and in the evening? i have to leave my house with the BP and mostourizer in the face? thanks**
A: Maybe get a small thing of moisturizer you can take with you or leave in your car. It doesn't take super long for this to dry for me, but if I put any moisturizer on within the next few hours it really stings my skin, so I usually just only use moisturizer if my face feels really really dry and use it in the middle of the day many hours after having applied the BP.

**Q: Will this product bleach your clothes?**
A: I personally have never had any of my clothes bleached by this product. I do however allow it to fully dry and use it on my face only .

**Q: Does it really work? I've reading all the reviews and im not sure if i should buy it,(i'm 19)my acne isn't really bad actually but is annoying.**
A: I used it for now maybe 1-2 years. Let me just to say this to u. Im pretty much never gotten any acne since. Even I always sleep at 3am LOL. This really do work (maybe not at first becuz it needs time).

**Q: Does this severely dry your face? To the extent where you have dry patches and can't put on makeup?**
A: Yes ! But what I do is put light lotion (cetaphil) on after I wash my face then I put this on

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works Consistently for My Hormonal Cystic Acne!
*by H***H on March 19, 2015*

This stuff is seriously a miracle in a bottle. I am 24 and have had acne since I was 12-13. Mine is hormonal, the cystic kind that is deep and painful and highly noticeable and leaves scars. I began using this a few years ago and followed the 3step regimen perfectly at first. For the first time, my face cleared up really well. Eventually I got lazy and was only using this part of the 3step process. My clear face was pretty well maintained despite this. Well, I ran out of my most recent bottle and wondered if perhaps I could manage without it by now. So I didn't order a new bottle. Bad idea. My face absolutely went nuts. I kept trying to avoid buying another bottle, trying other remedies. I finally gave up in desperation and placed the order. Once again, my face is CLEAR. I am following a slightly different routine with the treatment and I believe it is working even better than anything I've done before now. Here is what I do every night before bed: 1) Face Wash - I started making homemade face wash. It is a mixture of organic, unrefined coconut oil and baking soda. You would be amazed! This stuff leaves my skin feeling so soft and clean. I LOVE it. 2) Acne.org Treatment - I use this stuff liberally. I use 2 full pumps and put it all over my whole face. I buy it in the biggest bottle and it lasts for a really long time. It's expensive up front but it's well worth the money and lasts for so long. 3) Moisturize - I use organic, unrefined coconut oil as needed. My face tends to get plenty of moisture just from the coconut oil that is already in my face wash do I use this only if my face seems dry to me. Every morning: 1) Face Wash - I use my homemade face wash while showering. 2) Makeup - I don't use treatment in the mornings as it just doesn't seem needed. My face is very clear just using nightly. My face is usually plenty moisturizer from my face wash so I don't usually need any extra. The exceptions are it I am sunburned or my face just seems extra dry. In such cases I may use just a tad of coconut oil (sparingly) before applying my makeup. This process is what works for me. Without following it, my face gets to be in very sad condition. But after a couple months back using this treatment, my face is so clear. My husband has even commented a couple times about how good it's looking. He says he doesn't mind spending the money on this stuff because even HE can see that it works and he knows how much better I feel about myself when my face is clear. I'm sure he also likes looking at me and seeing a pretty complexion! If you're going back and forth on whether or not to try this, take the plunge. Since my teen years I have tried everything. Proactiv, dermatologist prescribed creams, dermatologist prescribed antibiotics, every drug store acne product. Most of these products didn't work at all and the few that did were temporary fixes that my skin became immune to and stopped working. This is truly the only product that works consistently. I will never stray from using it again as I now know that it is the key to keeping my face under control. BUY IT!
