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.

Keep away from eyes, lips, mouth or sensitive areas of the neck. If excessive swelling, irritation, redness or peeling occurs, discontinue use.

Avoid excessive exposure to sunlight or other sources of ultra-violet light, particularly at high altitudes or where the ground is snow covered.

Things to be careful of:
Be careful when using BENZAC gel because benzoyl peroxide can bleach or discolour clothing or towels.
