La Roche Posay- Effaclar Duo Acne Treatment

HOW IT WORKS: The formula clears skin in two ways: Micronized benzoyl peroxide, with much smaller particles than the traditional formulation, penetrates the pores more deeply to destroy acne-causing bacteria and regulate oil. Lipo-hydroxy acid (LHA) has been shown to exfoliate six times more effectively, but far more gently, than regular salicylic acid. In a company-sponsored study, subjects' inflammatory acne was reduced by 60 percent after ten days, while whiteheads and blackheads decreased by 63 percent. This is an outstanding product according to experts. It combines smaller molecules of benzoyl peroxide with LHA, a very gentle exfoliating ingredient. This helps clear acne faster without causing irritation or overdrying, which is so often a problem with acne treatments that use other ingredients, like glycolic acid. La Roche Posay can be bought at most good chemists
