Active Interest
2.5% Benzoyl Peroxide - This chemical from the organic peroxide family has oxygen-releasing properties. When applied and absorbed by an affected area, the peroxide can release oxygen necessary for the destruction of P.acnes bacteria -- also helping to deter the formation of microcomedo.
Cucumber - With phosphorus and sulphur compounds, vitamins, enzymes, and mild fruit acids, cucumber offers anti-inflammatory and antipruritic benefits.
Chamomillia - Offering anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, antioxidant, antidermatitic and antiseptic benefits, chamomillia is also a trusted means of encouraging the absorption of other ingredients. Chamomillia absorbs easily into the skin and, when applied to laser-treated skin, can encourage skin hydration, surface lipids, skin elasticity and decreased TEWL -- all of which help to reinforce the skin barrier.

Directions
Wet hands and gently rub a small dollop of gloClear Anti-Blemish Cleanser onto your face. Use fingertips to softly massage cleanser throughout the face for one minute, then rinse away with warm water.
Notes:
It's common for Benzoyl Peroxide to initially cause dryness and to occasionally irritate the skin, but typically the skin will adapt after a week. Use less frequently if your skin is becoming irritated, and if the irritation is severe please stop using entirely. Benzoyl Peroxide can bleach hair and clothing, so take care when applying cleanser.
As Benzoyl Peroxide is a potent oxidizer, redness may result from oxidative stress; remember to use cautiously. Stop using Benzoyl Peroxide when the breakout appears under control, and revert to a program of skin maintenance.
In addition to using sunscreen every day, minimize exposure to sunlight while using Benzoyl Peroxide.
