What the gurus are saying

At 10% strength, this benzoyl peroxide wash effectively clears active acne and is quite affordable, but it's notably drying and potent enough that it's not for daily use. Those with active acne on oily skin often limit it to a couple times a week at night, while others find it better suited to body acne. Anyone with dry skin may want to approach this conservatively.
