What the gurus are saying

Short contact therapy with benzoyl peroxide is the draw here, letting people with sensitive skin get the acne-fighting benefits without prolonged irritation. One reviewer uses it five times a week as a targeted treatment rather than a daily cleanser, washing it off quickly to avoid over-drying. A dermatologist counts it among gentler benzoyl peroxide options, though notes it can still irritate if left on too long, so it works best for those who can tolerate brief contact with the active.

"I use the Panoxil Acne Creamy Wash, the 4% benzoyl peroxide version rather than the stronger 10% one. I don't really enjoy anything about this cleanser, it's not unique, it's just a basic cream cleanser with benzoyl peroxide that will start to irritate my skin if I leave it on too long. I was really resistant to benzoyl peroxide for the longest time, but I discovered I can use it in this cleansing format to get short contact therapy, getting the benefits from the benzoyl peroxide but then washing it off so it's not too much for my skin. It's proven itself to me over the years as an acne fighting ingredient, so even though I don't like this product I treat it almost more like a medication. I use it about five times a week now, and the more often I use it the better it treats my acne."

"My recommendation here would be either the panoxil or the [CeraVe] acne foaming wash in the 4% cuz it tends to be a little bit more irritating."
