Effective But Requires Careful Use
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 17 November 2024

When I first started using Acnecide, my skin really struggled. I developed severe painful dry patches, and I can see why many people might discontinue use at this stage. However, I know my skin well, and I’d experienced a similar reaction years ago with the face cream version prescribed by a doctor.

To manage this, I stopped using it for a short time to let my skin recover, then reintroduced it gradually with less frequent application. My biggest tip? Start slow. Use a small amount, and focus on the areas that need it most. For me, my cheeks were particularly sensitive to the product, so I avoided applying it there whenever possible. Now I can be far more relaxed with it, but I still wouldn’t over use eg. 2 times a day would be too much 7 days a week.

The main thing that frustrates me about this product is how it’s described as a “face wash gel.” It’s not a gel-like consistency at all. It doesn’t foam, which might suggest it’s free from unnecessary fillers, but it makes it harder to use. It feels more like applying a thin moisturiser than a typical face wash, which can be a bit awkward.

That said, I will continue to buy it, as there aren’t many easily accessible alternatives with 5% benzoyl peroxide. However, if a more traditional face wash with a similar active ingredient became available, I’d be eager to try it.

A non screw top lid would also be favourable.

I think reviewing this as 1-star because your skin reacted to the benzoyl peroxide is unfair as it's clearly marketed with this being the active ingredient and this is an extremely common reaction which is why you need to take your time with strong ingredients like these. If you struggle, then find products marketed as sensitive skin, which this isn't. It's not a product fault so low review don't make sense for this issue.

It works!
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 15 August 2024

I have suffered for years with bad breakouts, and recently it has got worse, most probably due to hormones (more under the skin spots then whiteheads). I’ve looked at so many different products but always been put off at how expensive they were. I read the reviews for this product and at such a reasonable price, I thought I’d give it a go. What a difference it has made to my skin and confidence. Each day I have noticed my skin clearing. I’ve used both the face wash and gel. I much prefer the face wash. The gel is good but found it definitely dried out my skin more than I wanted. I will always use this product from now and can’t recommend it enough.
