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

Ok so listen up, I've been on the regiment for a little over two weeks. Maybe its to early to write a review, but I have seen significant improvements in my skin. Acne seems to be fading and fading fast, new breakouts nope... Skin tone has dramatically improved. At first I just thought "well maybe because my skin is red from the treatment, thats why it looks better." No, not the case. This week the redness has been reducing as my skin begins to normalize with the treatment. Im seeing more and more improvements as the weeks fly by. I suffer from 'cystic acne' I had a 'big boy' on my face (which was there for more than a week) before I started the regiment; a little over two weeks and its basically healed... Anyone who suffers from cystic acne knows that these 'big boys' can take weeks, sometimes even months to even start to reduce in size, let alone heal. I still have the dreaded red patch were he lived on my face, but that is fading rapidly, and with the AHA, that red patch is on the outs. At this point only time will tell whether or not this will actually work out for me, but its looking pretty good at this point, so im crossing my fingers. I intend to return to acne.org to update my review at about the eight week mark. Whether that be good, bad or indifferent. However this morning I woke up; went to wash my face, and I knew I needed to get here ASAP... Drink plenty of water, exercise, and eat right.

This is definitely the best benzoyl peroxide product I've tried. It's important that you stick to it and strictly follow the (somewhat slow) accustoming process by starting with a small amount once a day and then upping to full amount followed by full amount twice a day. Also, it's very important with a good, rich moisturiser - especially if you have dry skin tendencies. Finally, be very careful with clothing since benzoyl peroxide will bleach. Specifically endangered are shirt collars and other clothing that sits tight around your neck.

If this doesn't work, I think it is an indication that you need to treat from the inside out. I decided, after trying this, antibiotics, salicylic (which works better for me btw), benzaclin, and others to try oral contraceptives and spironolactone orally and retin-a topically. After 2.5 years I think I am making a lot of progress.

i love this product because it controls my oily face soooo well, i just need to moisturize after, dan's moisturizer is very good but i use cerave because i can get it in stores

I have had horrible cystic acne for years and this product works good

I've been on the BP we'll close to a month now. My face is incredibly dry with flakes all over my T-Zone. I've never been the one to really break out with acne, but I always get pimples! There the ones that have a huge whitehead on them all the time. Well now those are gone but the red marks still remain on the surface. Hopefully this dryness goes away because when I'm waiting that 15 min to dry off after I cleanse my face with the Acne.org gentle skin cleanser, my face is so dry I can barely even open my mouth to talk!

When my acne got bad, benzoyl peroxide cured it, there is no question. Not lemons, not vinegar, benzoyl peroxide. Fortunately now I am in a position where my skin has improved and my body is in balance so I am quitting BP all together and keeping my acne under control with aforementioned lemons and vinegar. But my god, when your skin is in a real state, nothing will clear it up as quickly as BP will. Stick out the redness, and build up slowly, your skin will be freakishly dry at first but you will adjust. Dans BP is 2.5% which is ideal, the formula is smooth and gel-like and you get a gigantic amount for your money (I still haven't got through the stuff and its been 4 months.) But one thing I will say is that although this will probably "cure" your acne, it is not something you should be shovelling all over your face twice a day. It's a serious chemical and should be treated that way. Yes, use BP when your skin is messed up, but when you're getting back to normal, slowly wean yourself off and try out some of the natural remedies reviewed on this site. Have you noticed how high the reviews are for things as simple as lemons and potatoes?

I first started using Dan's BP in 2009 when my breakouts started getting out of hand. I still continue to use this product now. The whole regimen hasn't cleared up my acne; however i believe the root cause of my acne is: Very bad diet Allergies Alcohol Highly recommend this product!!

I LOVE the texture of this benzoyl peroxide. it's easy to massage into the skin. Others that i've used have done the cakey and white deal...didn't abosorb. This just feels different and i could tell the difference within a couple of days. I also like that it's not in the 5% -10% range as far as how strong it is. I was using both at one time and i felt like my face was on fire a lot of times. I also tried one with 5% benzoyl peroxide and tea trea oil...I was not a happy camper...lol. Good stuff and you get MORE than enough. I'm in Afghanistan working and it's dirty here and the water is bad. My skin has really suffered. So far so good with this product.
