HG acne product for me. Every now and then I think I must be over acne now (cos I'm so old lol) and I stop using this. But then after a few weeks the acne returns. It's not terrible but it is 4-5...

I'm really surprised with all of the reviews here. It generally seems to be very positive. Whenever I put this product on my skin, it burns it. The entire area it was on will stay extremely red for...

I really like it so far. It does a good job of keeping any large breakouts in check and from swelling up. My biggest complaint is that it doesn't tackle blackheads like other BP products I've used....

This is a good, non-irritating benzoyl peroxide lotion. I use it when the normal strength stuff isn't doing the job. I have sensitive skin and this lotion is too strong for me to use every day, but...

Part of my HG skincare routine: I use this nightly after I cleanse and apply my BHA gel. My skin as of late has been clear and glowing. Highly recommended to those with acne prone skin.
