So I've finally given up with just about everything OTC, clean & clear, st ives, and plenty of other acne treatments and brands aimed at acne. Most of these things didn't work for me and some even made it worse. Then I tried the natural stuff... You know natural ingredients for face masks and washes... Still having cystic breakouts on my cheeks. So with everything I've tried I think it's time to give up or go topical... Now I have heard mixed reviews on using benzoyl peroxide and I have been quite wary of trying it out because it's a chemical, but honestly I have no where else to turn to. I need something stronger to get rid of the recurring cystic acnes which are just creating scars and red marks on my cheeks.
So I am asking your guys' thoughts on this before I go out and buy it.
Getting BP here in the UK is quite difficult, and I don't want to buy it online for the simple reason is I think it's risky, buying a chemical treatment over the internet... It could be anything in there. I don't trust it! So the only BP I have found in a pharmacy is the Acnecide 5% BP gel. Has anyone tried this? Has it worked for you or not?
Let me know your experiences and thoughts, thank you.
Because BP is a chemical it can be very harsh on the skin for some people. I always encourage those to start slow and work their way up on concentration and the amount they apply on their face. It works but it can be irritating and you will need to find a good moisturizer to help alleviate the flaking.

Do you have a moisturizer you could recommend?
