Best acne cleanser I've EVER used!!!
I've worked in the cosmetics industry for 20 years and used to develop skin care and makeup for a manufacturing company. I've literally tried EVERYTHING to get my skin clear that is available. Proactive, Clinique, Philosophy, Murad and the like is kid stuff in my opinion. Those types of products di...

My dermatologist recommended a 10% benzoyl peroxide face wash for my stubborn, postpartum acne. I like the thick consistency and how a little bit goes a long way. I use this at night and I love how clean and oil free it makes my skin feel.

Great product for acne-prone skin. The packaging is convenient and with an economical dispenser. The texture is creamy and foams well after applying. It has no scent. After washing, there is no irritation or tightness, but the skin does feel a bit dry, so I want to moisturise it with a cream. It cleans really well and helps reduce inflammation.

This PanOxyl is my favorite face wash. It leaves my face feeling so clean and fresh. It has helped my skin so much I have noticed less breakouts. The only downside is it can bleach your sheets/ towels.

I personally love this product. I deal with oily skin which causes my skin to break out. This product by itself has made my face clearer than ever before!
Pair with a heavy moisturizer!

Like, but don't love. I don't have a ton of acne but I do feel like it did help the one spot that I have. It's the highest amount of benzoyl peroxide that you can get without a prescription, so that's a benefit. It did see to dry out my drier areas (nose creases) so it definitely needs to be paired with a heavy moisturizer. It also doesn't really foam up on the face, so I'm not sure why it's called a foaming cleanser :)

- Q
So the how to use section mentions to avoid contact with hair because it can cause bleaching. Does this mean I shouldn't let this face wash get on my eyebrows?
- Asked by meg
- Official Answer By PanOxyl - Brand EngageBenzoyl Peroxide can sometimes have a bleaching effect and thus, we are required to put this on the label. We do not hear of any of our customers experiencing bleaching on the eyebrows, due to it being a wash and it doesn't stay on skin.Was this answer helpful to you
