Ingredients Explained

These ingredients are found in both products.

Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.

Skin Conditioning, Solvent

Water. It's the most common cosmetic ingredient of all. You'll usually see it at the top of ingredient lists, meaning that it makes up the largest part of the product.

So why is it so popular? Water most often acts as a solvent - this means that it helps dissolve other ingredients into the formulation.

You'll also recognize water as that liquid we all need to stay alive. If you see this, drink a glass of water. Stay hydrated!

Bye Acne
Very aggressive but very effective (Not as aggressive as the Clindoxyl). Benzoyl peroxide is no joke! I have used on my back acne and on the hormonal acne on my face, both worked perfectly. But never forget the moisturizer! Always follow the instructions written on the box and you will have no problems.
