PanOxyl Acne Foaming Wash 10% Benzoyl Peroxide 156 g

PanOxyl Acne Foaming Wash is a topical acne cleanser containing 10% benzoyl peroxide — the maximum strength available without a prescription. It treats acne and helps prevent new breakouts on the face, chest and back, and comes as a 156 g unscented foaming wash.

What is PanOxyl Acne Foaming Wash?

It is a daily acne-fighting cleanser that lathers into a rich foam on contact with water. Its active ingredient is benzoyl peroxide 10%, and it is intended for acne-prone skin on both the face and body areas such as the chest, back and shoulders.

What is PanOxyl used for?

• Treating acne and helping prevent new pimples from forming.
• Cleansing pores of excess oil, dirt and impurities.
• Reducing acne-associated bacteria on the skin surface.
• Daily use across face, chest, back and shoulders.
• A rinse-off format that fits easily into a shower routine.

How does benzoyl peroxide work?

Benzoyl peroxide releases oxygen inside the pore, which helps reduce the Cutibacterium acnes bacteria associated with acne, and also helps clear pores of dead cells and oil. Because it works by oxidation, it does not drive bacterial resistance the way some topical antibiotics can.
