"I've come to the realization that benzoyl peroxide is actually the most effective thing for fighting my acne, more so than a retinoid. It is however so potent that I can only use it in a wash-off form at the 4% level, this is from PanOxyl. I recommend this over the CeraVe because this has a little bit of a thicker texture, which just makes it easier to work with. I apply this to dry skin, let it sit for a bit, and then wash it off, because if you apply benzoyl peroxide to wet skin it might absorb more quickly and cause a reaction."

"This is a favorite of mine and I've been recommending it for years. It is a dermatology staple I recommend for acne. I end up using this a lot in the summer on my armpits to reduce the burden of bacteria there that break down sweat and lead to body odor. Many of you have commented that hearing me talk about doing that made you start doing it and you noticed improvement in body odor, so I'm glad to hear that. I love this."
