Q: Can I use this product after I've used a salicylic acid body wash?

submitted by David S - 6 months ago
  • A: Hi David - No, you generally should not use a benzoyl peroxide wash and a salicylic acid body wash at the same time, as this can cause excessive skin irritation and dryness. It is better to use them on alternate days or at different times of the day to allow your skin to recover between treatments. How to use them safely: Alternate days: A common and effective strategy is to use the salicylic acid body wash one day and the benzoyl peroxide wash the next day, with a day off in between to give your skin a break. Different times of day: If your skin tolerates it, you could use the salicylic acid wash in the morning and the benzoyl peroxide wash at night, or vice versa. Start slowly: If you want to try using both, start by spacing out the treatments. You can gradually increase frequency only if your skin does not show signs of irritation. Always monitor your skin for signs of irritation. If you experience excessive dryness or soreness, stop using the products together and consult a dermatologist or pharmacist for personalized advice.

submitted by Amado - 1 year ago
  • A: Hi! Thank you for reaching out to us! Our PanOxyl Acne Creamy Wash works best for acne-prone skin, whether dry or oily. It’s gentler than our 10% wash and great for everyday use as it contains ingredients that help prevent over-dryness that can happen with benzoyl peroxide treatments. We recommend applying one of our moisturizers after using our acne wash to restore hydration to the skin. /PanOxyl Brand Team/

    Daily routiene!

    My daughter’s dermatologist recommended this product and I’m glad he did. It’s not drying and keeps her acne at bay. It works so well that I’ve started to use it. I can attest to the fact that it works for different skin types and ages. We use it twice daily.

    It only got rid of some of my acne by drying it out. This wash made my skin soooo dry and I only used it for a week. My face js red and blotchy (especially under my eyes) and it looks like I had an allergic reaction even though I'm not allergic to anything in this wash.

    I have only used this item for 2 weeks and I see a BIG difference in my skin. I have hormonal acne due to birth control pills and I can definitely say this product works. I only use it once a day (in the evening) and apply a moisturizer right after.

    Best nighttime face wash

    This face wash cleared the little bumps on my forehead that wouldn’t budge! I like this one because it is more gentle than the 10%! One this is to be careful in the sun with this. Apply extra sunscreen for beach days! Your skin will get more burnt! I only use this at night and layer it with a thick moisturizer

    Itchy rash

    I really wanted this to work but unfortunately had a bad reaction. It gave me an itchy rash all over my face and neck that lasted a week. I think it may have been an allergic reaction but Ive never experienced anything like it.
