Is it okay to use both benzoyl peroxide acne medication AND salicylic acid acne medication?
I’ve bееn using Clеаn & Clear’s continuous control acne cleanser whісh contains 10% benzoyl peroxide fοr thе past couple οf years. I јυѕt bουght thе Clеаn & Clear blackhead eraser whісh contains i thіnk 1% salicylic acid. Iѕ іt okay іf I used both? I wουld probably υѕе thе cleanser іn thе morning аnd thе blackhead eraser аt night.
It is okay to use benzoyl peroxide and salicylic acid acne medication together, in low "doses". I used the same continuous control acne cleanser that you do, and my face got really irritated and red and blotchy. you might want to use a more gentle acne cleanser. I have read in many magazines that using both, one in the morning and one at night, is good to combat acne. Hope I helped!
NO! Very harsh on skin, and can dry it out?
It’s okay to use both. Just make sure you use one in the morning and one at night. Never actually use them together. Make sure you are using a moisturizer at least once a day so your skin doesn’t dry out and start to flake.
