Benzoyl Peroxide Acne Treatment, 5% Oil-Free Face Cream for Pimples, Blackheads and Breakouts - Effaclar BPO
A benzoyl peroxide acne treatment brings a leave-on active to blemishes, pimples and blackheads while helping prevent new breakouts. Effaclar BPO contains 5% benzoyl peroxide in an oil-free, fragrance-free and non-comedogenic cream for oily, sensitive and acne-prone skin. The formula is designed for use across affected facial areas rather than only as a cleansing wash.
Begin with the frequency and amount stated on the Drug Facts label, avoiding eyes, lips and broken skin. Reduce use if dryness or peeling occurs, and consult a qualified professional if irritation persists or when combining acne medications. Benzoyl peroxide can bleach hair and dyed fabrics, so wash hands after applying and use light-colored towels or pillowcases. Choose between the listed 0.68- and 1.35-fluid-ounce single tubes.
