Our Take

A proven workhorse that delivers on its promise without the premium price tag.

Maximum-strength benzoyl peroxide (10%) in a foaming cleanser that works on face, chest, and back—no mixing products or buying multiple treatments.

At $10.67 for a tube that doubles as a face and body cleanser, you're paying less than most dermatologist-grade acne products and roughly the same as weaker OTC alternatives.

Who it is forBest for people with persistent or moderate acne who want a no-fuss single cleanser and aren't sensitive to benzoyl peroxide (do a patch test if you're new to the ingredient).

How We Judged It

What to check before you buy

Strength & Speed

10% Benzoyl Peroxide

This is the maximum concentration available without a prescription. The formula kills 99% of bacteria in 15 seconds, so you're not waiting weeks for results. It's designed to work on comedonal and inflammatory acne.

Coverage

Face, chest, and body

A single 5.5 oz tube does triple duty. If your breakouts show up anywhere from shoulders up, this one cleanser handles it, which saves money and shelf space versus spot treatments.

Texture & Tolerance

Foaming wash with moisturizers, non-comedogenic, unscented

Benzoyl peroxide is notoriously drying, so this formula includes humectants to soften that edge. It's safe for daily use and won't clog pores, which matters if you're already dealing with congestion.
