Hello Gorgeous! A few weeks ago I was sent acne treatment products from PanOxyl (GalxoSmithKline) to test and try out. I was very excited to try these products because as most of you know I suffer from mild adult acne and I’m always looking for new products to add to my skin care routine. Keep reading for all the deets.
PanOxyl Advanced Acne Spot Treatment
Directions:
- Clean the skin thoroughly before applying this product
- Cover the entire affected area with a thin layer 1 to 3 times daily
- Because excessive drying of the skin may occur start with 1 application daily, then gradually increase to 2 or 3 times daily if needed or as directed by a doctor
- If bothersome dryness or peeling occurs reduce application to once a day or every other day
- If going outside, apply sunscreen after using this product. If irritation or sensitivity develops, stop use of products and see a doctor
Pros:
- Maximum strength effectiveness for target breakouts
- Kills acne causing bacteria
- Gentle on skin
- Dermatologist recommended brand
- 3 % Benzoyl Peroxide Formula
Cons:
- None
Price:
- $7.99
My Thoughts: This product is a god-send I use it whenever I have a pimple forming and it clears it up right away. I apply this spot treatment on my face and chest (wherever needed) once a day at night after I have washed my face. I have seen a big improvement in my skin since I started using this product. This is definitely going into my skin care routine.
Bottom Line: I recommend PanOxyl Advanced Spot Treatment and I would repurchase this product in the future
Final Verdict: 5/5
PanOxyl 10% Acne Cleansing Bar
Directions:
- Wet area to be cleansed. Using warm water, wash the affected area for 1 to 2 minutes
- Rinse thoroughly and pat dry
- Because excessive drying of the skin may occur start with one application daily. Then gradually increase to two or three times daily if needed or as directed by a doctor
- If bothersome dryness or peeling occurs, reduce application to once a day or every other day
- If going outside, apply sunscreen after using this product. If irritation or sensitivity develops, stop use of product and see a doctor
Pros:

- Clears acne blemishes and helps prevent new ones from forming
- Suitable for cleansing on face, chest, neck and back.
Cons:
- Excessive drying and peeling on my face
Price:

My thoughts: When I first started using this cleansing bar I used it on my face and body but within a few days I noticed that my face was becoming excessively dry and very uncomfortable. Also I started to peel around my eyes so I immediately stopped using it on my face and after some time my skin went back to normal. Although I no longer use this product on my face–it is way to strong for my skin, I still use it on my body in the shower once a day and it has helped with the breakouts on my shoulders, back and chest so I am very pleased with the results.
Bottom Line: I recommend this PanOxyl Acne Cleansing Bar but be cautious when using this on your face. I would repurchase this in the future.
Final Verdict: 3/5
