Product trial: Spectro AcneCare benzoyl peroxide lotion 2.5% (available in Canada)

Pros: It has a very light feel to it and feels good going on. I really enjoyed its “payoff” as they call it in the cosmetics industry–it’s been formulated to really feel nice upon application.
Cons: Small bottle (25mL, .8oz) is gone before you know it. Dries white in patches. This whiteness goes away after moisturizing, but the whiteness can come back after perspiring, much like other creamy lotion based BP.
Bottom Line: Superior to Neutrogena On-The-Spot, Inferior to a gel based benzoyl peroxide.
Recommended: Yes. If you’re in Canada and need a 2.5% BP in a bind, this one will work fine.
