General Information

Benzac AC Moderate Strength 5% Acne Wash is effective at unblocking pores and killing acne-causing bacteria on your chest and back. Formulated with Acrylates Copolymer and Glycerin, this Benzoyl Peroxide-based wash soaks up excess oils and rehydrates the skin to leave it feeling soft and smooth.

Benzac AC Moderate Strength 5% Acne Wash is an effective wash for treating acne on your chest and back. With antimicrobial Benzoyl Peroxide and Acrylates Copolymer (AC) technology to soak up excess oils and release Glycerin, this wash kills the breakout-causing P. acnes bacteria and clears pores, blackheads and whiteheads while rehydrating your skin at the same time. Use in the shower as the first step in your three-step acne-fighting routine. Benzac kills acnes bacteria

Size: 200mL

KEY FEATURES

• Effective wash for the chest and back
• Kills acne bacteria in the skin with 5% Benzoyl Peroxide
• Unblocks pores, blackheads and whiteheads
• Acrylates Copolymer technology removes excess oiliness and rehydrates the skin
• Added Glycerin leaves skin feeling soft and smooth

Ingredients

Active Ingredients: Active: Benzoyl Peroxide 50 mg/g; Inactive: Acrylate Copolymer, Glycerol, Carbomer 940, Sodium C14-C16 Olefin Sulfonate, Sodium Hydroxide Q.S. Or Citric Acid Q.S. For pH Adjustment, Purified Water To 100 g.

Directions

Simply use in the shower as the first step in your three-step acne routine, washing your chest and back (but you can also use it on your face): wet the area you want to cleanse, work into a lather, apply then leave for 30 seconds before washing off and patting dry. Follow with your acne treatment of choice before finishing by applying a moisturiser.

Start off using Benzac AC Moderate Strength 5% Acne Wash once daily, before working up to twice-daily applications. During the first weeks of treatment, a sudden increase in peeling will occur in most people; this will normally subside within a day or two if treatment is temporarily stopped.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Works wonder on my back acne! I've suffered from back acne for a few years now (35yo woman) since I've gotten off birth control. The break outs have been really bad and scaring was an issue. Since using this product I have seen a significant reduction in new pimples emerging and the existing ones have reduce and or vanished. I am so grateful to find this product and that it worked for me. I now feel more comfortable showing my back and not being self conscious. I hope all acne sufferer's can find a treatment like this that works for them.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great for bad acne Bought this as a replacement for proactiv face wash and am very impressed. We tried everything before finding proactiv which was the only thing that worked for my daughter. I couldn’t find it anywhere so was very reluctant to change brands. This is supposed to be a body wash, but has the same ingredients as the proactiv step 1. It does bleach the towels, but so did the proactiv. Great replacement.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Effective acne wash that is surprisingly gentle. I used to use this 10 years ago and have recently started using this with the La Roche-Posay Micro-peeling Foaming Cleanser in the shower and my skin has never been smoother and my complection is much more even. I will never stray from the Benzac AC Wash again! It says that it is a chest and back wash but I use it on my face and it gives me great results. Very impressed with both cleansers.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from My sister loves her benzac but look out for bleach My sister absolutely loves her benzac wash I got her! She started seeing a difference within a week and was so thrilled to see her back clearing up after struggling with acne for so long. The only thing I would flag (not a criticism, just wanting to alert others) is that, as the wash contains bleach, if you don’t wash it off thoroughly enough your towel and/or clothes may lose some colour. My sister uses the same towel to dry her back afterwards and it is patchy blue and cream coloured now. She says it is so worth it though!!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Back wash to clear acne I've used this back wash for months now and whenever I get bad breakouts on my back it always helps with clearing painful pimples in a matter of days. You do need to have a shower every single morning/night though and apply it thoroughly to your back, in order to see results! You need to leave it on as directed on the packaging. Be careful because if you dont wash it all off, it will rub onto your clothes/towels and leave bleach-like stains! When applying it onto your skin there is no pain or discomfort whatsoever!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great product to keep acne at bay Much cheaper than other brands, easy to apply and doesn't leave the skin feeling too dry. Just be sure to follow with a moisturiser.
Date published: 2019-02-19
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Love it I use this on a regular basis, when breakouts come up. Keeps it all at bay, treats and reduces. Great stuff, just be aware it will stain your towels so use your old ones.
