Acne Foaming Wash
Summary of Reviews
PanOxyl Acne Foaming Wash delivers consistent clear skin for months, per Kayla Ryan, who repurchased it after other washes failed and notes it smoothed texture and cleared milia without flaking or drying. Dermatologist Dr Dray recommends it for years, citing 4% and 10% strengths for mild acne or body deodorizing, but advises using it under arms only a couple nights weekly to avoid irritation. Kristina Studio calls it her go-to nighttime wash and uses it as a mask, reporting no drying.
