PanOxyl Acne Creamy Wash – 4% Benzoyl Peroxide

This daily-control cleanser from PanOxyl features 4% benzoyl peroxide, the number-one-recommended acne-fighting ingredient.  It is formulated to cleanse face, chest and back while being gentle enough for everyday use.  The creamy, pH-balanced texture helps lift dirt, unclog pores and clear existing breakouts, while also helping to prevent new blemishes forming. 

Benefits

• Clears existing acne and helps prevent new breakouts by targeting clogged pores and acne-causing bacteria. 

• Suitable for use on face, chest and back—so it addresses acne beyond just the T-zone. 

• Gentler than higher-strength washes, making it appropriate for daily use and for those who may find stronger formulas too irritating. 

• Contains humectants and emollients to help support skin hydration and reduce dryness often associated with acne washes. 

Direction to Use

Wet the area to be cleansed (face, chest or back). Apply the cleanser and gently massage into skin for 1-2 minutes.  Rinse thoroughly and pat skin dry. Begin with once-daily use; if your skin tolerates and your dermatologist or skincare professional recommends it, you may gradually increase to twice-daily use. Because benzoyl peroxide may bleach fabrics (towels, pillowcases, clothes), avoid contact with dyed fabrics or use a designated white towel during use. If excessive dryness, irritation or peeling occurs, reduce frequency of use and follow with a non-comedogenic moisturizer.

Main Ingredient 

The active ingredient is benzoyl peroxide (4%). Benzoyl peroxide penetrates into pores and works by reducing acne-causing bacteria, helping skin shed dead cells and preventing new clogged follicles from forming. It is widely regarded as the gold-standard over-the-counter active for inflammatory acne.  At the 4% concentration, this formula strikes a balance between strong acne-fighting power and better tolerance—making it suitable for those looking for effective treatment without the highest possible strength.
