Pro tip: to reduce dehydration, mix RESET with HERO moisturizer in a 1:1 ratio before applying to skin. To avoid an increase in pigmentation and inflammation, you must wear SPF 30+ sunscreen and avoid direct sunlight while using this product. Using more than one acne product at the same time may cause irritation and dryness. Benzoyl peroxide bleaches clothing.

Choosing the right percentage of benzoyl peroxide depends on your skin type and the severity of your acne. For mild to moderate acne, 2.8% Benzoyl Peroxide is often sufficient to effectively target acne blemishes without causing excessive skin irritation. This lower concentration can be particularly beneficial for those with sensitive skin or individuals who are new to using benzoyl peroxide in their skin care routine.

For hormonal or cystic acne, 5 % benzoyl peroxide may offer a stronger option. It's potent enough to combat stubborn acne breakouts, yet it's still considered safe for regular use with minimal side effects. However, higher concentrations can sometimes lead to dryness or peeling, making it essential to rehydrate the skin.

Regardless of the concentration, incorporating products like the THIRSTY Hydrating Serum and applying the HERO Peptide Moisturizer morning and night can help to rehydrate and soothe the skin, balancing the powerful effects of benzoyl peroxide with necessary moisture and nourishment.

When it comes to quickly reducing the size of a pimple, an effective acne spot treatment is your best ally. Products containing benzoyl peroxide are particularly renowned for their ability to swiftly target and diminish acne-prone skin. This active ingredient works by killing bacteria, reducing skin irritation, and helping to remove dead skin cells that clog pores. For those seeking the best acne spot treatment, it's crucial to choose one that not only combats the blemish but also suits your skin type to prevent further skin irritation.
