FAQs

Can I leave benzoyl peroxide 5% overnight?

Yes, you can leave benzoyl peroxide 5% on overnight. However, if you have sensitive skin, it’s advisable to start by using it for a shorter duration and gradually increase the time as your skin adjusts.

Does benzoyl peroxide gel remove dark spots?

Benzoyl peroxide is not specifically designed to remove dark spots, but it can help fade post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation by promoting the shedding of dead skin cells.

What if I experience irritation?

If you experience irritation, such as excessive redness or peeling, reduce the frequency of application to once daily or every other day. If irritation persists or worsens, discontinue use and consult a skincare professional.

What not to use with benzoyl peroxide?

Avoid using benzoyl peroxide with other harsh acne treatments, such as salicylic acid or retinoids, at the same time, as this can increase irritation. If you wish to use them together, consider applying them at different times of the day. For example, benzoyl at night and other acne treatments in the morning.

Can I put moisturizer on top of benzoyl peroxide?

Yes, you can apply a moisturizer on top of benzoyl peroxide. Using a gentle, non-comedogenic moisturizer can help mitigate dryness and irritation caused by benzoyl peroxide. However, you need to wait a few minutes after applying this gel to allow your skin to absorb it before applying moisturizer so you don’t hinder its effectiveness.

Can I use 5% benzoyl peroxide every day?

Yes, you can use 5% benzoyl peroxide daily, but if you have sensitive skin, start with twice a week at night and gradually increase to thrice a week as your skin becomes accustomed to it.
