Benzoyl peroxide is a very important and common ingredient known in fighting mild to moderate acne. Benzoyl peroxide helps to unclog pores, increases skin cell turnover and reduces inflammation that causes pain.
Benzoyl peroxide is a Antiseptic which helps to reduce the C.acnes within the skin which will reduce active acne, pain and post inflammatory hyperpigmentation.
Benzoyl peroxide breaks down within the skin and creates a chemical reaction which creates benzoic acid. This breakdown is one main reason we are able to treat acne as benzoic acid has an antibacterial effect and is able to reduce the acne specific causing bacteria.
Stabilised benzoyl peroxide means there has been no benzene detected when Propaira 4% benzoyl peroxide cream tested. Benzene can be formed when products are exposed to high levels of heat or have been stored at specific temperatures and can have tremendous adverse reactions.
