Benzoyl Peroxide
There is a lot of buzz around the use of Benzoyl Peroxide as an acne cure but we do not recommend it without reservation. Benzoyl Peroxide is commonly used in spot treatments, scrubs and other topical anti-acne treatments because it kills acne-causing bacteria. It helps the skin get rid of dead skin cells and unclogs the pores, thus enabling it to breathe more oxygen.
For this reason you will see a quick and noticeable improvement in your acne after using Benzoyl Peroxide. However, it can also make your skin itchy and dry. In users with sensitive skin, the side-effects may be more severe and include flakiness, redness and a burning sensation. Moreover the positive results of Benzoyl Peroxide are temporary and disappear once you stop the treatment. Even stopping for a few days can cause a sharp increase in bacteria and acne, so you have to keep buying and using it, which may be reason why so many products contain it.
