I bought the two BP and Glycolic acid, but forgot the warning that its not to be used, i thought it was a mistake and searched to confirm but couldn't find, then i tried them together once, in very small amount, thankfully nothing bad happened to me. Still when i am using the two alternatively, without cleansing the face thoroughly, so there's a big mix, but didn't harm me anything, thankfully. i will take care of it now.

Cut down on dairy. Get acnecide 5 percent and use only a thin sized amount and only use this once a day in the evening. Drink loads of water. Cut down on sugar. Get a nice moisturiser to use after and workout often.

Can I use Benzoyl Peroxide 2.5% with Salicylic Face Wash during the day?Because I am using adapalin gel at night for almost 2 months but I am not getting any special result so I want to use benzoyl peroxide peroxide in day time.please reply 🙏❤️ from Bharat 🇮🇳

[@lilyerwin8114]

Hi! I'm not a doctor, but from hearing around from sources, you can use benzoyl peroxide during the day (a benzoyl peroxide face wash would be even better to use), and yes, adapalene gel does take a long time to work, you just have to wait, it took months for it to work on me but I had patience and it paid off. I wish you luck brother/sister 🙏🙏

[@Bruja989]

So does that mean I cant use my benzoyl peroxide cleanser followed by Some By Mi miracle toner and serum anymore?

[@Zeus_9137]

Benzoyl peroxide already exfoliates your skin and if you use the toner by some by mi which contains aha, bha and even pha it's gonna irritate your skin alot. Opt for a gentle cleanser but obviously if you're doing fine with it you don't have to change.

[@lauragashi2311]

I personally use my acne cream (which contains benzoyl peroxide) after washing my face and drying it. I only use it at night because it dries out my skin and I only put benzyol peroxide (my acne cream) on, nothing else

[@koko.3100]

is it okay with mixing benzoyl and niacinamide in the same rotine?

I'm not dermatologist But I use Bengrl cream first on the spot leave it for 5 min and layer with nacinamide And I swear really work for me Bengel help to disappear pimple and nacinamide help me to reduce the spot cause due to Bengel

[@peacengugi5240]

Is it safe to use benzoyl peroxide in the morning and tretinoin at night?

[@lilianaspataro2794]

Benzoyl peroxide per se is an exfoliant element so i suggest using both at night, alternating days. Watch and wait ur skin's reaction to it since reactions to products are subjective! I recommend not using tretinoin in the morning too because like benzo, its an exfoliant! Dont over exfoliate or u'll ruin ur skin barrier 🥲

[@spotyboy9722]

If my skin is oily, do I need moisturizer? I just like it better when the skin is a little dry

[@sanasana4746]

Even if you have oily skin you must use moisturizer its something u shouldn't avoid

I'm experiencing terrible itching and burning 😢. Thank you for this video but what soap can I use to clean off the oiliness before applying the gel to stay safe

Hi! I’ve been using BP as a cleanser but you said it cannot be mixed with vit c and more active ingredients. So what can I use for post acne spots? I have a lot of them. I’d really appreciate it if you could answer🥹

[@tokucoco367]

You can safely use panoxly acne wash (bp) together with vitamin c serum or retinol. AS long as it's WASH, it's okay.
