DERMATOLOGIST INSIGHT
"For my patients with acne, I recommend Effaclar Duo 4% Benzoyl Peroxide Cleanser for a gentle, yet effective solution for targeting acne-causing bacteria. The product combines benzoyl peroxide with 0.1% lipo-hydroxy acid for micro-exfoliation and thermal spring water to help soothe acne prone skin."
