If you’ve ever wandered the aisles of your local pharmacy you have likely stumbled past the acne section and noticed a whole bunch of rather scary looking products with the words “BENXYOL PEROXIDE” plastered across them. they typically look very medical and don’t give all too much reassurance about them not burning half your face off. But if you’re at the total pain point of doing whatever it takes to get rid of your acne, often this is your last resort and you’re willing to face the consequences of this product.
If you’re one of the lucky ones that haven’t yet reached that stage of desperation to eradicate the painful & confidence-crushing acne you’re facing, then let me break down what these products are, and perhaps introduce you to a softer, more natural & proven alternative.
Benzoyl peroxide is a topical medication used for acne treatment. It exerts its effects through antibacterial action, reducing the population of Propionibacterium acnes, a bacteria associated with acne. Additionally, benzoyl peroxide has mild exfoliating properties, helping to unclog pores and prevent new acne lesions. It is widely used in various formulations such as creams, gels, and washes due to its effectiveness in treating both inflammatory and non-inflammatory acne lesions. But its oxidizing effect, mild exfoliation causing dryness, and bleaching properties can also be a risky choice. It can lead to skin irritation and potential allergic reactions like the following;
- Dryness and irritation
- Bleaching of hair, skin & fabrics
- Allergic reactions
- Photosensitivity
- Skin irritation
The Acne Cleanse is your natural, gentle, yet effective alternative to benzoyl peroxide.
The capsules are formulated with herbal ingredients and vitamins that you can pronounce, and report no serious side effects when taken correctly. Not only does it assist in fighting acne, but it boasts a range of other skincare benefits as well - it eliminates blemishes, reduces blackheads, diminishes pores, fades scarring, and boosts collagen production to promote a radiant glow.
