KEY INGREDIENTS
5.5% Benzoyl Peroxide: A common and effective acne ingredient with fast acting properties. Effaclar Duo uses micronized benzoyl peroxide; milled to a consistent small size that allows for deep penetration into the pores. An ideal choice for those concerned with red, raised acne blemishes and pimples.
Lipo-Hydroxy Acid: Also known as LHA, it's a derivative of salicylic acid, and has exfoliating and skin surface renewing properties.
Glycerin: Derived from vegetable sources, it's an excellent humectant. It helps hydrate skin by absorbing water from the surrounding environment.
