Acne.org : Treatment (Benzoyl Peroxide - 2.5%)

This is the way to go as far as BP. I don't know why anyone would ever use the cream version. This goes on so easily, and you don't have to worry about your face being white. It also takes about 1/3 of the time to apply compared to cream. Awesome stuff.

This is, by far, the BEST BP cream you can buy. I used to buy the store brand 5% or 10% BP, but it always scorched my skin, leaving me with not only acne, but a red lobster face and neck as well. This cream is gentle and dries clear. If you want to wear it under makeup, just make sure not to use as much BP as you would after your nighttime cleansing.

BP is hailed by some as a great method to combatting acne but for me, not so much. It's awesome that it works for some but I think people hopping aboard the bandwagon for the regimen need to keep in mind that everyone's skin is different. For that same reason, the regimen and BP will not work the same for everyone either. I unfortunately did not consider that when I began using it. I in fact, needed professional help for my acne, but because of my stubborn thinking I thought I could clear my face on my own. Instead it worsened over the month and a half that I used the BP. It showed some results but nothing that convinced me that I should stick it out any longer than I already had.

Thank you!

This stuff has saved my life. I started on the regimen using Oxy 2.5% benzoyl peroxide cream which did work well, but left that white residue, and came in a tiny bottle. This stuff feels MUCH nicer to apply and lasts a whole lot longer. Also, my skin has never looked so good! I started getting acne in grade 4. I've been on tetracycline from the dermatologist (which made me very nauseous) and tried many other acne products. Nothing has compared to this. It's so easy to use, and best of all, very cost efficient! I can't sing its praises enough. I tell EVERYBODY about it. I even look at old pics of myself where I THOUGHT I was having a good acne day and cringe because it is such a drastic difference! What a self esteem booster to have clear skin, finally, after all these years!

Make a 5% Benzoyl Peroxide for those who need

Love this product!! Wish I came across it a long time ago! I have had onset adult acne on my chin area, and this product has improved my skin immensely and not drying!!

If you work hard and use this strictly w/ the DKR it should work great

Doesn't work for me. I can't believe there's so many positive reviews! Kudos to you all, but wow, I have semi-moderate acne and this product just seemed to make it worse. I followed the regimen for several months and it didn't work. If this product was less watery and combined with some other ingredients, it could be good. But for now it's mediocre in my opinion and I am literally amazed there's so many good reviews!

Last summer I had regular teenager acne so I thought I would give this product a try right before school starts and finally become clear. I was dead wrong. The first couple of weeks using the product, I saw decent improvement which of course had me excited, and then things turned for the worse. My skin was not only drying terribly from this line of products, but I was breaking out in cystic acne everywhere. I thought I had acne before, but I wouldn't wish the kind of acne I got from this product on my worst enemy. I was not only in psychological pain from being a dumbass trying to continue this product and going to school with a flaky acne riddled face, but I was in physical pain from the cysts and it would hurt if I smiled or tried going to sleep. It took me over 6 months to recover from that kind of acne I received and I have awful red marks and probably permanent acne scars because of it. I wish I took them up on their offer and asked for a refund. I was so upset with this I just threw it all out without thinking of getting my money back. Honestly, I don't even care about the money...I just wish I never tried this product in the first place.
