Takes some patience to apply.
Works well, no white residue, goes on smooth, hardly drying at all, dirt cheap for xsuch a large size
almost none, except that it takes a little long to absorb and smells kinda funny
Excellent staying power, nice consistency, keeps face clear
Clears exsisting moderate acne in about 3 days, reduces shine and redness, and improves tone and texture of skin :D
Ever so often a small pimple will form. Blackheads and whiteheads are still present. Grrr. Dries the skin but that's what moisturizers are for.
Liked 4oz package size
Didn't work on my skin - in fact caused a breakout. Went back to Proactiv which I had switched from to sample this product as a cheaper alternative.
This is the thing for me! I have suffered with acne for about 6 yrs now and it feels great to be working with something that actually works! It also feels good on my skin.
Although it works great, don't expect perfect skin. For me it controls my acne, it didn't completely banish it. It also takes a while to apply.
Clears up zits and doesn't dry out skin.
No fragrance
Took about three full months of using the gel consistently to start to see results, but six months later, my skin looks great!
Doesn't stain clothes as badly as most BP creams.
I first started using this regimen in 2016 and it got rid of all my acne, this was the first product that actually worked. I don’t have acne anymore but I would get the occasional pimple or two so I decided to purchase this regimen again ( worst mistake of my life). i’ve been using this product for a month now and my skin is horrible, I went from clear skin to horrible painful acne from using this product. I have never had this type of acne before it feels like cystic acne now and my skin was perfectly fine before I started using this. They must have changed the formula or added new things to this regimen because it is not the same and it also bleached my pillow cases from grey to orange. I do not recommend buying this, it will damage your skin and cause painful acne.
I love this product and it has completely cleared my skin. I’m just curious as to why you used it if your skin was fine. This product is very strong so I wouldn’t even recommend for light acne.
The acne.org Benzoyl Peroxide 2.5 % has saved my skin!! I was using acne.org from November 2017 until January 2019. Why did I stop you may ask?...My skin was clear and flourishing but Instagram and popular skincare caught my eye. I switched to another skincare routine and it seemed to be going well (BIG MISTAKE!!!) until my acne started to creep back in on my jaw line, then on my cheeks. I used this different routine for 3 months and now I regret every moment of it..so...I went back to acne.org because I KNOW it works! The purge from using the acne.org Benzoyl Peroxide made my skin purge...It was horrific! However, I knew it was just doing it's job to unclog my pores from the previous skincare I was "trying out". 2 months later and my face is smooth again, I still have scars from my skin purging but the acne.org Benzoyl Peroxide is definitely getting me back to normal! Note to self and others out there...don't even change what is working in your favor!!
And yes, even though you may have been on the regimen before...starting over after a period of time means that you have to let your skin get used to it again....I know from experience. The purge was probably worse for me because I tried using too much when I went back on it in July. It takes time...start slow and YOU WILL see results.
Very good product. Have used it few times
im having the exact same experience! Im about a month in to using the benzoyl peroxide again every other night and still breaking out--- how long did it take to get under control again?
So I've been very careful with it after using too much of it in the beginning, so I reduced again and started very slow.
Week 1: Pea size amount at night only.
Week 2: Pea size amount in the morning and at night.
Week 3: Pea size in the morning, double the pea size at night.
Week 4: Repeat week 3.
Week 5: Two pea sizes in the morning, 2 at night.
Keep increasing from there - but listen to what your skin is telling you. If you start to get irritated one week, don't increase until your skin is used to it.
I would say it's taken about 3 - 4 months. My cheeks and forehead are super smooth but my temples didn't get the initial purge memo so they are doing that now. Some areas of your face might need time for the benzoyl peroxide to really draw out what it under the skin. It is helping that I use an ice cube to ice my face right before applying the benzoyl peroxide because I saw it helps to penetrate products deeper and gives a little exfoliation.
Be patient with it! You got this! Let me know how it goes!
Hey quick question! What moisturizer are you using? I’m having a hard time finding one that’s not breaking me out. Thanks!
