Q: Can I use this product after I've used a salicylic acid body wash?
submitted by David S - 1 month 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 - 10 months 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.

(no review title)
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.

Bleaches towels and clothing
There is something in the Acne Creamy Wash and the Banishing Body Spray that bleaches clothes and towels. It happens almost immediately. I am horrified that my sons were using these products on their face abd body!

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.

Patients and trust
This product is great!! If you strugle with self confidence due to acne, this product is great; Patients is key, (for me at least) Remeber everybody's body or face is different. So if it doesn't work right away that is perfectly fine; you MAY OR MAY NOT experences bad breakouts before it gets better. That is what happened to me, so give it time to take out all the trapped acne or anything trapped under your skin. Hope this helps!!!

Don't sleep on this like I did.
Started with this then moved up to 10%. But even then, the 4% already cleared my face within a few days. It’s been 4 months and still works great. This literally eliminated half of my skincare routine, it’s enough to achieve what I want. It’s that goooood. Leave for 2-4 mins, rinse, moisturize and white towels only. Never had an issue.
