humane Benzoyl Peroxide Face Wash - 5% Regular-Strength Acne Face Wash For Skin, Back & Body - 8 Fl Oz - Dermatologist-Tested Non-Foaming Cleanser - Benzoyl Peroxide Acne Treatment - Cruelty-Free

I don't typically write reviews, but this product gave me a change of heart. I have acne-prone, oily skin and spend lots of time (and money) taking care of my face. I have been to many dermatologists and cosmetologists for benzoyls and chemical peels. My previous (and favorite) brand, Face Reality Acne Med is a 10% benzoyl peroxide that is only available from specialty retailers. It's a fantastic product with very few additives that you leave on your skin overnight - it cleared up my skin when my face was at it's worst. The only downside is that it cost about $15 for 2 ounces. Now I am clear and looking for a benzoyl product to maintain my skin that is more affordable and easy to get - I was hesitant to buy this product at first. Due to my sensitive skin and oily complexion, my cosmetologist and dermatologist always recommended that I shy away from products with oil-based additives. I had concerns that the additives in the Humane product, namely Cocamidopropyl Betaine, would cause irritation as it was a coconut oil extract - but I was happy to be wrong! The Humane Benzoyl wash has worked great and is gentle on my skin. When I'm in a pinch, I even leave a dab of the wash on trouble spots overnight and it clears up the redness quickly. I really loved this product because it has very few additives and has one of the highest levels of Benzoyl Peroxide (10%!) available on the market without having to go to a specialist. Most importantly, it is very affordable and easy to order online. I even gave a bottle to my cousins who had light acne and their skin cleared right up within 2 weeks. They had never used any skin-care products before and it did not cause any redness, dryness or irritation when used regularly as a wash. It's worked great for me and others - I highly recommend this to anyone looking for a benzoyl product to keep their skin clear (maintenance) or who has light to moderate acne. I am on my second bottle and love it.

I’ve purchased this many times. I prefer the stronger formula. Leave it on your face for a good three - five minutes before washing off. You’ll feel the burn but that’s normal. I don’t have bad acne; for me, it helps keep my oil at bay. I’d definitely purchase again. And I use the pads that the brand sells in addition to the face wash.

So far so good. I've only had this product for 2 days. I have bad acne on my face. I've tried so many different products it isn't funny. I have open sores on my face due to picking, it relieves my anxiety and is a bad habit I have yet to break. Because of my picking my face has many scars on it so I do wear a lot of makeup which in return causes my face to break out more and along with my soda intake my face is horrible. So now that I gave you some background on to the product. I feel like I have to use a lot because it doesn't lather. The smell isn't very pleasant but it doesn't really matter. My face does feel smooth and clean after washing it though. I do not have sensitive skin at all, mostly because the scaring, so I have not had any burning or redness. I am using this product only once a day to start off and will move to twice a day in a week or two, I do not want to overwhelm my skin. I also read other comments and use Neutrogena oil free sensitive skin Moisturizer just to help in case of irritation. I will be posting pictures of before and after, and also update my review once I've used this product for a month or more. Update: 12/14/16 I've been using this product for almost a month, I use it twice daily and follow it with Neutrogena oil free sensitive skin Moisturizer. As far as burning or turning my face red, there has been none of that. I feel like this is more of a lotion than a face wash because it does not lather. I use it as recommended by the seller. Now my acne hasn't improved one bit. Like I stated above I am a picker, so I have done my best not to touch my face. The acne that I had a month ago some has healed some are still here, the face wash causes them to dry out more than get rid of anything. I still have just as much and new acne coming up. After this bottle I will not be purchasing another bottle. I've gone through so many different types of acne products over the past few years, still haven't found the right one. Guess I'll be continuing my search. Update: 12/19 This company contacted me regarding my review and gave me a full refund because the product didn't work as I thought it would. A lot of companies on Amazon don't read these comments, I was really surprised when I got the email. Some products work great for people some don't. If you have bad acne like me it's worth a try to give this company a shot simply because their customer service is great. Update: 1/29/17 After my refund I kept using this product..I figured I might as well keep using it since I have it. This is the only product I've continuously used over the past month and I actually have seen improvement in my acne. I have less come and the ones I had are finally starting to go away and look better. I still don't feel comfortable without makeup on, but so far I can notice a big improvement. I guess it just took a couple months to start working. Usually I don't wait this long, I am one who likes to see results in a reasonable amount of time and when I didn't I gave up on this product.

Years of bad acne. Used for few days on face. Bam cleared up. Then did body. This is magical stuff. Tho dont leave it on skin more than few mins. Wash good.

Great quality wash. But the soap dries inside the nozzle and it's difficult to get out sometimes. Need to change the packaging but overall it's worth it.
