Directions for Use:

Use Benzac AC Wash as the first step in your three-step acne routine, both for your chest and back, or on your face if needed. Wet the area you want to cleanse, then apply the wash and work into a lather. Leave it on for 30 seconds before rinsing off and gently patting dry. Follow up with your preferred acne treatment, and finish with a moisturiser.Start by using Benzac AC Wash once daily, then gradually increase to twice a day. In the first few weeks, you may experience an increase in skin peeling, which is normal. If this happens, stop using temporarily, and the peeling will usually subside in a day or two.
