Acne Treatment LotionThis elegantly formulated benzoyl peroxide-based therapeutic lotion fights the causes of acne, restoring balance to the skin for a more healthy and radiant complexion.
Clean the skin thoroughly before applying this product. Cover the entire affected area with a thin layer one to three times daily. Because excessive drying of the skin may occur, start with one application daily, then gradually increase to two or three times daily if needed or as directed by a doctor. If bothersome dryness or peeling occurs, reduce application to once a day or every other day. If going outside, apply sunscreen after using this product. If irritation develops, stop use of both products and ask a doctor. Sensitivity Test for a New User. Apply product sparingly to one or two small affected areas during the first 3 days. If no discomfort occurs, follow the directions stated above. Warning Active IngredientsBenzoyl Peroxide 2.5% → An antibacterial agent commonly used in acne treatments.
