How it works

This product is designed to address skin blemishes through the use of its main ingredient, benzoyl peroxide, known for its ability to tackle bacteria in pores. Benzoyl peroxide acts as an antimicrobial agent, helping to reduce the presence of bacteria that may contribute to blemishes. Other ingredients such as ethoxydiglycol and methylpropanediol serve as solvents that enhance the formula's consistency and application. Cyclopentasiloxane and cyclohexasiloxane provide an emollient effect, offering a smooth texture while conditioning the skin. Emulsifiers like steareth-2 and steareth-21 help maintain product stability by blending various components. An additional conditioning agent, panthenol, helps to support skin's appearance by maintaining its moisture balance.
