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 acne has gotten so much better with this product
I've been using this product for a few years now and it helps my face stay clear! I apply it in the morning to my dry skin on my lower jaw and chin, then I brush my teeth. After a few minutes, I wash it off with water and pat dry with a washcloth.
Repurchasing
I love this face wash. I have bad menstrual acne & this has helped so much. Has cleared a lot of my acne scars. I have sensitive dry skin & was using the 4% but now on my third bottle & using the 10% and its been working better for me !!! I suggest using the 4% if first time to make sure you dont have bad reactions before going higher .
New packaging? I think you mean new formula.
I compared my old empty bottle to the "new packaging" it's different. How about companies be honest. You changed the packaging to hide/ distract from the new formula. Thanks for ruining a great product that worked and the breakout. Paula's choice I go

It's pretty good
This cleared my forehead acne, it took like 1 month but it got rid of it. I wouldn't recommend it to people with sensitive skin since it does dry out your skin a little.
i would buy this product again but i would use it in a diffe
Okay first of all i LOVE this product. PanOxyl has helped my acne so much but when i was using the 4 percent bottle i could use it all over my face without it causing my skin to feel dry. But since ive switched to the 10 percent my skin has felt so dry. So for now i use a hydrating cleanser and so in wi th 10 percent on any active pimples if i have any and that has worked so much better. So if it causes your skin to get dry go to the 4 percent or keep the 10 percent just use it as a spot treatment with a hydrating cleasner!!!
