humane Benzoyl Peroxide Acne Body Wash - 5% Regular-Strength Acne Treatment for Face, Skin, Back and Body - 8 Fl Oz - Dermatologist-Tested Non-Foaming Cleanser - Vegan, Cruelty-Free

I'm a redhead, with highly sensitive skin, age 40. I still get acne unless I use medicated face wash 1-2x per day, every day. I have used a lot of cleansers, but this is by far my favorite. It lasts a long time, is fragrance free and it keeps my skin clear.I apply it to DRY hands, rub it around on my finger tips and apply to my DRY face. I use only about the size of a large pea each time I wash my face; just enough to barely cover all my skin. I hit my problem areas first (chin, forehead), so those get a little extra time, finishing up with my cheeks and top backside of my shoulders (where I also get acne). The only thing I do different then the directions is I remove the product with a warm wet washcloth within 20-45 seconds of applying most days, making sure to rinse and repeat so I don't leave product behind. It still works great to keep me breakout free with the shorter time. I'd think most people with less sensitive skin could probably leave it on longer than me (as instructed). I use Humane toner and a fragrance free lotion (I use a heavier lotion at night to prevent drying, and a lighter aloe based lotion during the day to prevent oil).Keep in mind that I have highly sensitive skin, so does my husband (also a redhead) and young adult daughter (also a redhead), and we all love this product!As the instructions note, you have to get used to this product (as you do with any medicated product). But the results are totally worth it! Start slow and don't leave it on for too long. When I started using benzoyl peroxide (many years before I found Humane), I haf redness and peeling for the first week and almost stopped using it. I switched to every other day until my skin could handle it daily, then twice a day. After 2 weeks my skin looked amazing! As long as I use it regularly now, I have no peeling, redness or irritation (I can skip a few days and it's not a problem). People frequently ask me what I do to keep my skin looking so good, and this is it!I absolutely love that this product is not only fragrance free, but it doesn't foam when applied. The foaming products drip all over the place and eventually bleach my pajamas/washcloths/whatever they drip on.I was also shocked at how long a bottle lasted me! It was probably at least 4 months. Way more than the one month I was getting from the department store brand, saving me money as well!

After being to multiple dermatologists and not having any luck... my skin would somewhat clear up, they’d see it as a victory, and then take me off the medication that helped... which would then make me flare up again, I was feeling hopeless. I started to accept my acne was chronic, since I’m 25 and have had it since 13. I haven’t had cystic acne by any means, but would have multiple zits and many of them painful at times. My dermatologist had always told me 5% benzoyl peroxide is the same as 10%, so don’t use it. Well, 12 years later and no results, I decided to not listen to the “expert” and give it a try for myself. I held out until the 6 week mark to give it a full chance. Through dry skin, extra moisturizing, and washing my face with this product twice per day as directed (letting it sit on my face for 3-5 min before washing) I am pleased to report my skin is the clearest it has ever been in the past 12 years. When I was talking to one of my clients about this product, she said, “I didn’t know you struggle with acne, your skin looks so smooth and porcelain” well... that was a new one! Lol. My skin is baby soft smooth. I currently have 2 zits, but amazingly enough, they aren’t painful like usual, however, my cycle is about to start and I don’t think any product is magical enough to avoid flare ups around this time of the month — but this one has cut the flare ups down by 95%. I am so glad I took the risk! It will definitely dry out your skin, so find a good moisturizer. I don’t know about the rest of you, but dry skin has always felt good to me in a weird way. I’ve always felt like that’s a victory. Overall my skin has been less oily as well. I don’t even think about how oily my skin looks even with a full face of makeup on. I can’t recommend this enough! Well worth the money and less of a hassle than going to another doctor with no results.

This is an awesome cleanser. I previously used panxoly but I was running through every 3-4 weeks because I do double cleanse twice a day. First I use an oil based cleanser than I use this cleanser as my 2nd cleanse. Works great and I love size. Should last a while. My only complaint will be is the pump. It does feel super cheap. Not sure how long it will hold up. I just feel that is I’m paying $45.00 for a product the pump should be durable. However the packing was great it wasn’t damaged.

I have been using this since middle school and I am22 now. I started using it as a normal face wash but now that I’ve built up my skin, I put my moisturizer on and then put this on my face and sleep in it. If I have a breakout it clears it up within 1-2 days. I’ll never go back !!!! I LOVE this product
