Directions

How do you use Benzac Wash,

Firstly, wet the affected area. Gently rub on Benzac AC Wash 5%, work into a lather and leave in contact with skin for 30 seconds. Rinse thoroughly and pat dry.

During the first few weeks of treatment a sudden increase in peeling may occur. This is not harmful and will normally subside within a day or two.

If too much drying occurs, you may need to rinse the cleanser off sooner, use it less often or use a moisturiser.

Things to be careful of:

Be careful when using BENZAC gel because benzoyl peroxide can bleach or discolour clothing or towels.
