Q: Is this also a makeup remover or do I need to use a separate cleanser first?
submitted by K - 8 years ago
A: I use makeup remover to remove makeup, especially eye makeup then wash with this. So no need for another wash.

submitted byRsmith3174 - 8 years agoA: Not a make up remover. Cleanse first with another cleanser and follow up with this.
submitted byjust perfect - 3 years agoA: PanOxyl is not a make-up remover. A make-up remover should be used prior to using PanOxyl

submitted by Mi - 3 years ago
A: this stuff is amazing and yes you can use cetaphil with it. Cleanse first with another cleanser and follow up with this. I use cetaphil and no issues. both cleanser and face lotion.
submitted byjust perfect - 3 years agoA: PanOxyl acne washes contain benzoyl peroxide, which works to kill acne causing bacteria and helps prevent future breakouts from forming. Our washes can be used to treat acne on the face, chest and back. We offer acne washes containing benzoyl peroxide in 4% and 10% concentration levels so you can customize your routine based on your skin’s needs. Avoid contact with the eyes, lips and mouth. Skin irritation and dryness is more likely to occur if you use another topical medication at the same time. If irritation occurs, only use one topical acne medication at a time. If you have any concerns about a potential reaction, we recommend you consult your healthcare provider.

Q: Will this work on sensitive skin to ？
submitted by Miranda - 3 years ago
A: We don’t recommend using our 10% wash on sensitive skin because of the Benzoyl peroxide that we use in our acne washes. Using a wash that has Benzoyl peroxide may cause skin irritation. We recommend you contact your healthcare provider or dermatologist for any questions regarding the appropriate treatment.

I never leave reviews but this product is 100% worth writing one. My skin has been breaking out on my chin and cheeks and I tried pimple patches and other treatments and nothing worked. Well I started using this face wash twice a day and my skin has cleared up significantly. :)

I never write reviews but this has cleared my skin like nothing else I’ve tried before. I’m 28 with mild adult acne and I’ve not used a product that has had such positive effects on my skin in the last 10 years. It can be drying to start with but it’s worth it for how well it clears and prevents pimples.

First- I haven't had ANY bleaching issues with this, if you wash your face like a normal person you shouldn't be getting bleach stains anywhere... Second--this 100% cleared my stubborn acne. I used to consistently get hormonal cystic acne every week. Since using this, I haven't had any hormonal breakouts and my skin has been clear for months. I've been on prescription medications for my acne and NOTHING has worked like this. Life changing

Bleaches fabric and dress skin significantly. It's not as effective on your skin as described and it will stain any fabric it touches. Imagine how drying it is on the skin.

I’ve had active acne for years and can never get to seem to control it until I started using panoxyl. My skin feels smooth and soft and it’s only been 1.5 weeks since using.

Wow. Had lots of forehead acne, some chin acne, and a big acne bump on my cheek. Used this at night and when i woke up it almost looked like i had clear skin. Minimized it so much. For the ones who say they breakout again to avoid that buy the clean and clear acne moisturizer and use daily and you'll basically have no acne at all or keep it extremely minimal depending on how much you have because it prevents it.
Great!

I use Panoxyl everyday and have been using it for months. It’s great for body acne as well as for the face. It’s not drying but benzoyl peroxide does bleach if it’s not washed off appropriately or you use a dark towel to take it off.

personally, this product is on and off for me. I use this every night, once a day and it works, but i end up breaking out again. Then, it gets rid of my acne then comes back. I recommend this product as it does work well but also recommend using a different product at the same time thay doesnt irritate skin when you use 2 acne medications at once.
Dried my skin out...

Helps with my issue, but drys out my skin. Will no longer be using daily…it’s too drying even with using a moisturizer afterwards. I will still use, but not as often as I’ve been using. My skin needs a break…way too harsh. ,:-)
