Description

Differin Maximum Strength Acne Foaming Cleanser is a cream to foam acne face wash and body wash designed specifically for acne-prone skin. Formulated with 10% benzoyl peroxide (BPO), the strongest OTC strength concentration without a prescription, it starts working immediately to help clear acne while also preventing future breakouts. This dual-action formula acne wash can be used for face and all over body, including chest and back, helping you target and cleanse acne breakouts where they can pop up most. Micronized benzoyl peroxide penetrates into the skin to eliminate most acne-causing bacteria, resulting in longer-lasting clearer skin, and has shown to be less irritating than traditional non-micronized benzoyl peroxide formulas. Use as a part of your daily cleansing routine to assist with acne treatment. Apply to wet skin and gently massage for about 20-30 seconds, avoiding the eye area. Rinse the facial cleanser and body cleanser thoroughly and pat dry for best results. Start with one application daily and gradually increase to two or three times a day as needed.Key Ingredient:Benzoyl Peroxide

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My skin is very sensitive. So I wouldn’t only use a small amount once a day. Its was drying for me, so you’d need a very good moisturizer. Worth giving it a try

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is such a great foaming cleanser. It rivals really expensive ones and helps with acne. Even tho it’s not specifically for sensitive skin it’s really not too harsh.

This is the first product I’ve used from this brand and I’m officially obsessed. This made my face feel so clean and soft way better than anything I’ve purchased at Sephora. There’s a very slight bit of exfoliation to it that I LOVE.

I’ve used panoxyl for about 2 yrs and wanted to try something different so I bought this product after seeing reviews on TikTok. Worst decision ever. It made my skin burn and itch for 2 weeks and made my acne way worse than before. I tried it for 2 months for consistency and nothing changed. I had to throw it away and go back to panoxyl, a safer and better option. My skin is finally back to normal thankfully

I have been using the Panoxyl face wash for a while and saw this next to it so I gave it a try. After using it a couple times I noticed that my face was extremely dry. My skin felt like it was peeling and at times burning as if I had a rash. I would not recommend this product, would definitely recommend the Panoxyl over this product

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been using the Differin Maximum Strength Acne Foaming Cleanser for a few months, and it has made a noticeable difference in my skin. The formula is gentle yet effective, making it suitable for my sensitive skin. Unlike other acne treatments that can be harsh and drying, this cleanser leaves my skin feeling clean and refreshed without any irritation. One of the best aspects is its maximum strength, which tackles breakouts effectively. I’ve seen a significant reduction in acne and overall improvement in my skin texture. The foaming action ensures thorough cleansing, removing dirt and oil without stripping my skin of its natural moisture. Another highlight is its ease of use. The product lathers well, making it quick and easy to incorporate into my daily routine. Plus, it's fragrance-free, which is a bonus for those who prefer products without added scents. Overall, Differin Maximum Strength Acne Foaming Cleanser has been a game-changer for my acne-prone skin. It delivers on its promises, providing clear, smooth skin without the harsh side effects of other treatments. Highly recommended for anyone struggling with acne.

Had to stop using after a week. Have no issues with Panoxyl twice a day, but there’s a gritty texture to this face wash and it made my chin flaky and dry plus gave my neck a bad rash I had to use hydrocortisone cream to soothe.

It’s very harsh on face doesn’t always 100% clear up all acne. Definitely follow instructions. I recommend using 1x a day 2x a week to start out and have another face wash that’s hydrating to compensate
