Variant

The Acne Wash is a clarifying benzoyl peroxide acne cleanser formulated with 2.5% benzoyl peroxide, a proven active that helps tame breakouts by targeting acne-causing bacteria while supporting the removal of excess oil and dead skin cells that contribute to clogged pores.

This benzoyl peroxide acne wash is a daily acne cleanser, designed for oily and acne-prone skin, gently removing makeup, surface oil, sweat, and buildup without harsh stripping. With consistent use, it helps calm congestion and support clearer-looking skin as part of a balanced acne routine. Benzoyl peroxide helps reduce breakouts by targeting acne-causing bacteria, unlike some acids that primarily exfoliate. It works deep in the pore to calm congestion and reduce future blemishes

Safe for use on both face and body, The Acne Wash is ideal for those seeking a targeted acne cleanser that delivers clarity without compromising the skin barrier. It works best when paired with hydrating, antioxidant, and barrier-support products to maintain comfort during active acne care.

Is this acne wash suitable for all acne types (mild, moderate, cystic)?
This acne wash is formulated to help address mild to moderate acne by targeting congested pores, excess oil, and acne-causing bacteria. For severe or cystic acne, we recommend using this cleanser alongside guidance from a dermatologist or licensed skincare professional.

Does this acne wash contain ingredients that can dry out my skin?
Yes. This formula contains benzoyl peroxide, which can feel drying-especially during the initial weeks of use. To maintain skin balance and comfort, it’s important to follow with hydrating, antioxidant-rich, and barrier-support products.

How quickly can I expect to see results?
Many users notice improved oil control and a calming effect shortly after use. For clearer-looking skin and reduced breakouts, consistent use over several weeks is recommended.

Can I use this acne wash with other acne treatments or prescription medications?
Yes, this acne wash can generally be used alongside other acne treatments or prescription medications. Because combining multiple active products may increase the risk of irritation such as redness, stinging, or peeling, adjust frequency as needed or consult your dermatologist.

Is this acne wash safe for sensitive skin?
In many cases, yes. However, benzoyl peroxide may cause irritation for those with already compromised, dehydrated, or highly sensitive skin. We recommend patch testing before regular use and adjusting frequency if sensitivity occurs.

Can I use this acne wash every day?
Yes, daily use is appropriate for oily and acne-prone skin types. Because the formula can be drying, it’s essential to follow with hydrating and moisturizing products to help prevent discomfort or irritation.

Can I use this acne wash on areas other than my face, like the chest or back?
Yes. This acne wash is suitable for both face and body, making it effective for areas such as the chest, back, and shoulders where breakouts and congestion commonly occur.

Is this product cruelty-free and vegan?
Yes. This product is cruelty-free and vegan, in line with our commitment to ethical and responsible skincare.

How long does one bottle last?
This acne wash is concentrated, so a dime-sized amount is sufficient per use. With regular daily use, one bottle typically lasts around three months, depending on frequency and area of application.

HOW TO USE

The Acne Wash

THE ACNE WASH is suitable for daily use for oily and acne-prone skin types. It could also be alternated with less exfoliating cleansers such as the Mandelic Cleansing Gel or the Daily Cleanser.

FACE - with clean hands, wet your skin and then apply cleanser to the facial area. Gently massage for a few seconds then rinse and pat your face dry. Follow with toner and other skin care products in your regime.

BODY - to get the most benefit from the cleanser, lather up and leave on for 20-30 seconds, then rinse thoroughly. If this method causes skin dryness or irritation, just rinse the product off immediately after cleansing. We recommend using sunscreen daily when using this product.
