PanOxyl 10% Benzoyl Peroxide Acne Foaming Wash, 5.5 oz — Maximum Strength Face & Body Cleanser to Clear and Prevent Breakouts

PanOxyl 10% Benzoyl Peroxide Acne Foaming Wash is a maximum-strength, over-the-counter face and body cleanser designed to clear existing pimples and help prevent new breakouts.

Formulated with the highest non-prescription benzoyl peroxide concentration, this foaming wash targets acne-causing bacteria and penetrates pores to reduce blemishes on the face, chest, and back. The non-comedogenic, unscented formula includes skin-conditioning agents to reduce dryness commonly associated with acne treatments, so you can add it into a simple daily routine.

How quickly will PanOxyl start to show results?

PanOxyl begins to act on acne-causing bacteria immediately upon contact; laboratory data show rapid antimicrobial activity. Visible improvement in active breakouts typically requires consistent use for several days to weeks, depending on severity.

• Antimicrobial action on contact, reducing bacteria in seconds
• Works to clear existing blemishes and prevent new ones
• Daily use recommended; increase frequency as tolerated

Can I use this wash on both my face and body?

Yes. The formula is suitable for acne-prone skin on the face, chest, and back, helping unclog pores and reduce both surface and deeper blemishes. It’s useful for treating stubborn body breakouts where typical face cleansers may not suffice.

• Safe for face, shoulders, chest and back
• Pore-penetrating benzoyl peroxide fights comedones and inflammatory acne
• Non-comedogenic and unscented to limit irritation

Will this wash dry out or irritate my skin?

Acne-fighting cleansers can be drying, so this product includes moisturizers to help offset dryness while still delivering strong antibacterial action. Start with once-daily use and increase gradually to reduce irritation; discontinue if severe irritation occurs.

• Contains moisturizing agents to combat drying effects
• Begin with a single daily application, then increase as tolerated
• Avoid contact with eyes and irritated skin; rinse if stinging occurs

How do I use PanOxyl for best results?

Use on wet skin: massage for one to two minutes, rinse thoroughly, and gently pat dry. Follow a gradual approach—start once daily, then move to two or three times daily if needed or advised by a healthcare provider.

• Wet the area before applying to create a light foam
• Massage 1–2 minutes to ensure pore penetration, then rinse
• Pat dry and follow with non-comedogenic moisturizer if needed

Who is this for? PanOxyl 10% Benzoyl Peroxide Acne Foaming Wash is intended for people with moderate to stubborn acne who want a potent, prescription‑free option for both facial and body breakouts. It’s a practical choice for those who prefer a straightforward cleansing step that combines strong antibacterial activity with skin‑conditioning ingredients. If you have extremely sensitive skin, are pregnant, or have questions about combining this with other treatments, consult a healthcare professional before use.
