Best For
Oily, combination, or acne-prone skin concerned with active breakouts, clogged pores, excess oil, and persistent blemishes.
What It Does
Helps clear active acne, reduce excess oil, and prevent future breakouts while supporting a clearer, healthier-looking complexion.
Why It Works
Formulated with 5% benzoyl peroxide, exfoliating and skin-conditioning ingredients, and lightweight hydrators like squalane to help penetrate pores, eliminate acne-causing bacteria, reduce congestion, and minimize excess oil.
How to Use
Apply a thin layer to clean, dry skin after cleansing. Start with once-daily use and gradually increase as needed/tolerated. Reduce frequency if dryness, peeling, or irritation occurs. Allow to dry completely before applying other products. Follow with moisturizer and daily SPF while using benzoyl peroxide treatments. *Benzoyl peroxide can discolor fabrics.
