Cleanse your face gently with a mild cleanser before applying Benzac. Avoid harsh scrubbing.
Pat your skin dry; don’t rub. Completely dry skin allows for better product absorption.
Apply a thin layer of Benzac to the affected areas. Less is more; a pea-sized amount is usually sufficient for the entire face.
Wait 20-30 minutes after applying Benzac before moisturizing. This allows the product to fully penetrate your skin.
Use a non-comedogenic moisturizer. This helps prevent further breakouts.
Apply sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher during daytime use. Benzac increases your skin’s sun sensitivity.
Start with once-daily application, preferably at night. Gradually increase frequency as tolerated, based on your skin’s reaction.
Be patient. It typically takes several weeks to see noticeable improvements. Consistent use is key.
Monitor for any adverse reactions such as excessive dryness, redness, or irritation. Reduce application frequency or discontinue use if needed.
Consult a dermatologist if you experience persistent irritation or if your acne doesn’t improve after several weeks of use. They can provide personalized advice.
