Will Benzoyl Peroxide work for me?

I've been using the acne.org regimen for quite a few months now but by using store bought lotions and cleansers. The site says to use 2% benzoyl peroxide however I can't seem to find it anywhere, so I've been using 10%. I'm not seeing completely clear skin so I'm thinking about switching to the actual acne.org regimen. Since I've been using 10% benzoyl peroxide for so long, will the 2% offered in the regimen actually be effective for me?

Your skin doesn't become immune to benzoyl peroxide no matter how long or how much you use of it so I'd say it's definitely worth a shot. The 10% will probably be very drying and the irritation itself might be causing more acne. The 2% will be much gentler so you may even see improvements and it's definitely less harsh for your skin in any case!
