Rugby Acne Medication - Benzoyl Peroxide Gel USP 5% - Vanishing Formula - Greaseless - Helps to Clear Up Acne Pimples - 1.5 Oz. (6 Pack)

ABSOLUTE BEST ACNE CREAM I'VE EVER USED! It does dry out your skin a lot, so I'd be cautious of how much you apply it to your face, but I used it every night when a new pimple pops out, and it will dry it out and eventually will just flake off my skin. Super effective and will take 3 or 4 days to completely dry out a pimple and vanish it.

I have had acne for over 12 years. It is cystic, and I have been told my doctors that it is hormonal and the best treatment is to go on birth control- which I tried and it made me sick as a dog. I have tried lots of topical products over the years and nothing works. 5 years ago I was on antibiotics for 2 weeks and it cleared my acne for a few months but that is NOT a long term solution. My acne has gotten worse and worse to the point that if I woke up without a new large, painful cyst on my face, I would be relieved. At 25 years old, my acne was the worst it's ever been; even worse than when I was a teenager with raging hormones. A month ago I was on vacation and my acne was so bad all I could do was cry and I decided this year I was going to see a dermatologist and do whatever it took to get rid of it- even if it meant being on the pill and feeling sick to my stomach 24/7 and going on Accutane and antibiotics. A few days later I was doing schoolwork for my graduate program and we were learning about acne. The textbook said the two classic treatments are benzoyl peroxide and retinoic acid. It was very simple, I'd heard it a hundred times. I thought about it, and realized I hadn't tried either of these products for a few years, and I probably wasn't very consistent back when I did try these products. I found this product on Amazon- only $7 for two bottles. I read great reviews, and I am lucky I came across a review that advised to use the product for at least a month before deeming it a success or failure. I also read to start off with weekly or biweekly applications because it will dry the skin out. Here's the verdict: -THIS STUFF WORKS. I HAVE CLEAR SKIN FOR THE FIRST TIME IN 12 YEARS. I got 1 small zit when I started my period last week. That's it. -MAKE SURE TO USE THE PRODUCT FOR AT LEAST 1 MONTH TO SEE RESULTS. It actually started working in a week for me, so that was a nice surprise. -START WITH BI-WEEKLY APPLICATIONS AND APPLY A GOOD LOTION OR CREAM AFTER WASHING IT OFF TO PREVENT YOUR FACE FROM FLAKING OFF. AFTER YOUR SKIN ADJUSTS, YOU CAN START APPLYING IT A LITTLE MORE FREQUENTLY if needed. I feel like I have my life back. I used to get so depressed when my acne would flare up. I'd be happy and hopeful if I only had 3 or 4 cysts on my face, then a week later I'd have a dozen painful cysts that I couldn't ignore because they hurt so bad, and I'd pick at them and it was a vicious cycle. It's so important to feel good in your own skin and I hope others have the same success I have had.

In considering whether to buy this much BP 5% in one go, I was concerned about whether the quality of its formulation would match the excellent value for money seemingly on offer. Formulation is vitally important, it isn't just about whether the gel/lotion has 5% BP. (I'm guessing many of us looking at this listing are familiar with how long it took Dan Kern to perfect his 2% treatment - but 2% just doesn't cut it for some of us.) Badly formulated BP can greatly exacerbate things. So, I was very happy to open one of these--large!--tubes and apply this light, quickly absorbed gel that also smelled just right, i.e. no added perfume of any sort, seemingly, just a clean, pharmaceutical sort of pleasant smell. I typically use a well formulated (but somewhat costly) prescription 5% BP, so, I admit, my skin is used to that strength - nevertheless, no new irritation or peeling was caused by this high-value generic, which is probably decent testament to the quality of its formulation. Also, most importantly, no new breakouts since the switch (and, yes, it's been several weeks since the switch). It bears noting, though: If you're coming to 5% from 2%, there's a good chance there's going to be some irritation and possibly a lot of peeling, regardless of whether your complexion is on the oily side of the spectrum, and regardless of the quality of the gel's formulation (yeah, I know from experience).. Don't use too much too frequently at first. Take it slow and try to give it a chance. Also, I'm not a doctor, so I base this on only my own experience - ymmv. Bottom line: This is an excellent buy. P.S. To anyone young out there reading this, hopefully before you've got much scarring, the long-term-but-forever solution to beating regular-to-mildly-severe acne: Regular, religious BP, either 2% or 5% (credit for this goes to Kern), plus keeping one's scalp healthy and clean, i.e. no dandruff especially, perhaps by using a ketoconazole shampoo regularly, plus all the other health-promoting basics like sleep, water, exercise, etc. Yes, I wish I had known (way, way) back then...

I used the acne medication overnight on a small area where I had breakouts and by the next morning the bumps were drying up. They weren't completely gone, but the redness and inflammation had subsided tremendously. Continuously over using the product will however cause some dryness.

This stuff works and I've been using it for years.

These are quite litteraly the best Acne Medication I have used, it takes a bit for the results to show but one they show they show, they are quite litterly the best medication that dosent require a prescription.

I haven't used these yet. The package came in good condition, and I received 3 tubes that were larger than I was expecting. They carry a Sept. 2024 expiration date. Each tube is also sealed, so that is a plus. Update: I have used this product 3 times and I have seen positive results. My face is clearing up. It is a white cream that goes on and rubs in easily. Use only a tiny bit or it may not absorb completely and lay on top of the skin. A little goes a very, very long way. It will bleach your clothing, but I expected that because it was stated in the description. The smell is bearable. I am upping my rating to five stars, from 4. Update 2- Still works but turned into a watery liquid instead of the usual cream consistency and lost some of its potency

The packaging was perfect and the delivery was fast.

great product two teenage kids 13and 17 both used it notice a differance within days
