Amazon Brand - Solimo 10% Benzoyl Peroxide Acne Medication, Maximum Strength, Dermatologist Tested, 1 Fluid Ounce (Pack of 4)

This Amazon Brand - Solimo 10% Benzoyl Peroxide Acne Medication, Maximum Strength, Dermatologist Tested, 1 Fluid Ounce (Pack of 4) is an excellent buy for the money. I bought this to help aid in combating some menopausal blemishes I was battling as well as for my son who also has acne issues. Benzoyl Peroxide has been around a very long time...ever since I was in my teenage years (that was 38 years ago...ugh). It works just the same as it did back then. It's effective because it kills the bacteria within the pores and clears the skin progressively. However, it does come with some caveats. First, the benzoyl peroxide does dry up the pimple along with the surrounding skin. So those with sensitive skin need to think twice before venturing in to use this product. It can cause some peeling of the skin. Secondly, the benzoyl peroxide will cause bleaching of anything that comes into contact with it. It bleaches pillow cases, clothing and even hair. Yes, I said even hair! I remember having applied it to my forehead once, long, long ago, and a strip of my hair from my bangs turned blond (and my hair is black). So beware, before you decide to give this a go. However, it is very effective in treating acne. The trick is to use this product in smaller amounts and maybe less frequently. It's also a good idea to use some kind of oil free moisturizer just to keep your skin from drying out too much. Be aware that this treatment is progressive...meaning the acne will not disappear overnight. it will take time. But once you get the acne under control, you can use this just to keep the acne at bay. Benzoyl peroxide doesn't work for everyone, but it's worth a try. Hope this helps!

I love this benzoyl peroxide cream and it is the only one I use. I have hormonal cystic acne due to PCOS. I decided to have a consultation with an esthetician who recommended benzoyl peroxide, and also suggested other products to use alongside it. A routine is very much needed when using benzoyl peroxide. Here's my routine, which has done wonders for me since I started it two years ago: 1. Cleanse twice with CeraVe Acne Foaming Cleanser - also has benzoyl peroxide. I cleanse using the pads of my fingers for 60 secs each time 2. Tone with CosRx AHA/BHA Clarifying Treatment Toner using cotton rounds - This will remove any dirt and dead skin, and also prevents blackheads and whiteheads 3. COSRX Galactomyces 95 Tone Balancing Essence - Tones and also helps with acne 4. Amazon Brand - Solimo 10% Benzoyl Peroxide Acne Medication - I personally prefer putting it on while my face is still damp so that the medication doesn't become too tacky or pill after using my other products 5. CeraVe Daily Moisturizing Cream - You NEED some sort of lotion or cream in order to prevent the benzoyl peroxide from drying out your skin and ruining your moisture barrier 6. A mixture of grapeseed, avocado and jojoba oils - Please do not believe the lies about all oils being bad for your skin. These oils are great for locking in all moisture and are also non-comedogenic, so they will not cause any breakouts. All of these products together may be pricey, but they WORK amazingly

Love how well this product gets rid of and prevents my cystic acne from popping up (no pun intended). I have it 4 stars bc it bleaches EVERYTHING. I have to wash my hands very well after each use and only use white towels. Even with those precautions, it will bleach my clothes when I sweat (I live in a humid climate so sweat is inevitable no matter what). I still use it bc it works so well, but it bums me out when I see my t shirts with bleach marks on them. *disclaimer: I do NOT use bleach with laundry or cleaning, so there’s no question in my mind that the stains are from this product

Awesome value/effective product. We remember this as clearasil - but I didn’t use it for acne. This is also used off label for (meaning it’s accidentally effective for something it wasn’t intended for) pitted keratolysis- if you have it and google it you will recognize it immediately- if not you probably don’t have it. I have a crazy Doberman who gets really excited. He was lit like a Christmas tree one day and accidentally stomped on my bare foot like a drunk frat boy and scraped my skin. I thought nothing of it and went about my life. A day later my toe was sore. I thought it was bruised. Another day later my foot itched. I took off my sock and saw that my toes were very red, inflamed, and my skin was peeling off. A quick google and immediately I recognized the characteristic pinhole white flakey skin as pitted keratolysis. Sounds disgusting, I know. But it is apparently a common bacterial infection and it leaves little pinholes in the skin where the bacteria damages the stratum corneum - it’s not that serious as this layer is near the very top of the dermis so it’s very superficial- however- it is different from athletes foot (which is a fungus) and we all know that to kill a bacteria we need something other than a fungicide like lamisil or any of the athletes foot remedies. benzoyl peroxide kills bacteria. which is why it is effective against most acne (most acne is also caused by bacterial) unless it’s fungal acne in which case good luck and you will need a different treatment. Anyway... here is how I treated my feet: Cleanse well - I used orange dial which may have been overkill as it is antimicrobial but I wasn’t messing around. Feet were still itching after cleanse - itching stopped immediately with a baking soda soak (dump some baking soda in a bowl with soothing warm water and soak feet, you’ll love it) I even sprinkled some baking soda baking soda right onto my skin. It was instant relief. Then rinse. Dry feet well. Apply benzoyl peroxide. Apply fresh clean white (no dye) cotton socks. Feet need to breathe and stay dry so cotton is perfect. It took a few days for the redness to completely disappear but the very next day it was improved and no longer itchy. After the benzoyl peroxide killed the bacteria and the inflammation was gone my feet/toes were very peely where the skin became loose in little tiny bubbled up pockets of dry skin so I used a thick hand cream under socks after the redness stayed gone for a whole day and now my feet are gorgeous and pretty again. Be sure to throw away or thoroughly clean what ever shoes you were wearing when it started. I repeat: do not put your cured feet back in shoes that had the bacteria in them. You can boil them, soak them in bleach or if you are insane like me just put them in your ozone generating tent you made to sterilize things for COVID. I also sprinkled sodium bicarbonate and poured boiling water into them because- like I said, I’m insane. But I guarantee my boots are clean. It all sounds horrific but I’ve had hyperhydrosis (sweaty hands and feet) my whole life and I remember as a child this would happen to my feet in the summer but I just lived with it because my parents didn’t have google and they were doing their best. It’s has been years since this happened but after wearing ug boots for a little too long I was reminded of my childhood woes of being a sweaty feet girl. Now I know what to do should I get a lil too happy in my boots for too long.

This absolutely changed my skin. I was using Benzoyl products from a local skin clinic, but due to Covid shutting everything down, I could no longer get my products. So I searched Amazon and found this super cheap. I didn't think it would suffice compared to the top dollar I was paying at the skin clinic, but man was I wrong. This stuff works even better than all that expensive stuff I was getting! I am so mad I didn't take a before picture to show how drastically my face and neck have healed up!!! At this rate I have no plans to go back to my skin clinic. I use this in conjunction with "Amazon Brand - Solimo Daily Acne Control Cleanser, Maximum Strength 10% Benzoyl Peroxide Acne Medication" and " RejuveNaturals Vitamin C Serum Plus 5% Hyaluronic Acid, 2.5% Retinol, 2% Salicylic Acid, 3.5% Niacinamide" This combination is a lifesaver and so much cheaper than what I was paying, for even stronger ingredients! That equates to about $21.24 at current prices for all 3 items! (I was paying around $150 at the skin clinic) However, be aware that if you are just starting out, your skin will peel and purge out everything that's been accumulating inside. Don't use benzoyl around your eyes. My skin is used to these ingredients so I saw results in a week or less.

If you have acne problems and you are ready to put those problems behind you, this benzoyl peroxide 10% is the best thing that is going to enter your life!!!! It is a life changer!!! It works! I have had very stubborn cystic and follicular acne on my face, primarily my chin, for years but over this last year my acne really took over and it really was demoralizing and depressing. They hurt and they were so ugly! Embarrassing. So, my routine: I changed my cleanser to a dry oil cleanser since it is not drying and it is the best thing for my problem face right now. I put the dry oil in my hand and massage it all over my face and neck to make sure all is cleansed. Then I rinse it all off and leave my face damp. Here is where I apply the benzoyl peroxide cream: I put just a dab on my fingertip and apply it to my wet face so that the tiny amount is distributed evenly over the damp face. I rub it in where I have my issues, mainly my chin. When it’s dry I apply my moisturizing cream next, rub and pat it in and then finally I apply a layer of zinc sunscreen. The zinc helps acne too! Good luck!!

Thus stuff worked wonders but drys the crap out of your skin. Also I ended up having two different reactions to thus product. One on the edges of my chin they became extremely itchy. Then a few days later the skin under my eye swelled up and looked bright red. So please use with caution. It worked great for the stubborn blackheads on my nose. So I'll have to only use it there like one time every other day.

This is my very first review ever for any product let alone amazon! This cream works magic! I have tried the most expensive formulas and nothing worked on my skin. This gem right here is doing wonders! I came here just to tell everyone who maybe going through the same thing as me. I have acne prone oily skin and I have had acne since my late teens in my early 20s now. My acne became so normal and I got so used to having skin that’s not clear. I get cystic painful zits oh both of my cheeks. I decided to give this a try. I first used it on June 24th we was the 7th day! Yeah you need patience because no good thing happens over night but I promise you when you begin to see results you will know it was worth the wait. Your skin will dry out but it is okay because brand new skin is waiting for you underneath. If I’m working I i my use it at night and if I’m home I’d use it about 3 times a day. When I wake up, mid day and before bed. Below is my pic from June 24th first day after applying the cream and the second is my pic today July 2nd after applying the cream! Get this guys
