Best acne cleanser ever!
I have used this cleanser daily for 20 years.
good product but not cruelty free
Unfortunately, I havent been able to find a cruelty free alternative. This product does exactly what it claims it will. Has helped with my oily t-zone and hormonal acne. I even use it on my feet and armpits in the shower. Really really wish it was cruelty free.
Don't buy
This destroyed my skin. I was looking for a was to clear my acne and this dried it out so bad and dind make my acne go away. Do not recomend!
Best acne product
As a 36 year old I only occasionally have a breakout or two around my cycle. However my skin has shown old and red acne scars from my teenage years. I have tried nearly every product I could and have never seen such clear and scar faded skin after a month of usage. It is not the best at removing makeup so I do a pre cleanse with an oil cleanser from cerave.
Not what i expected

- 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
