Anyone else using Benzoyl Peroxide 10% Wash 237gm?
I've been using Benzoyl Peroxide 10% Wash 237gm for the past month to treat my acne. It's been effective so far, but I've noticed some side effects like dryness and irritation. Has anyone else experienced this? How do you manage it? Also, I'm curious about the long-term effects of using this product. Does anyone have experience with it over an extended period? Any advice or insights would be greatly appreciated!
I've had great results with it. It did dry out my skin a bit, but I just switched to a gentle moisturizer and it helps a lot with the dryness and irritation whenever I use this. Also, make sure to apply sunscreen as your skin can become more sensitive.
I've been using it for about 3 months. The irritation was bad at first, but it helped a lot once I made sure my skin wasn't already irritated from other products. I use it 2-3 times a week. Be patient, it's a strong medication and that might be why you're experiencing side effects. You need to give your skin time to adjust.
I've been using this for about a year now. It's helped keep my skin clear, but I do experience some dryness and irritation. I mix moisturizer in my morning routines right after washing my face. It's a hassle to wash my face twice a day but it’s worth it to make sure my skin is clear and healthy.
Has anyone else experienced burning during the first few uses? My face is on fire, and it's only been a week. Is this normal?
I honestly don’t think I like benzoyl peroxide. The smell is killing me; it’s like walking around with a jar of antiseptic in my hand. Hopefully we’ll get a nicely scented version soon.
Why does it feel like every acne treatment has to make my skin dry like the Sahara? Unfortunately I'm going to switch to something with salicylic acid.
