Whether you admit it or not, we are all addicted to trying out new and different skin care products, especially Face washes. And if a new Face wash, with a slight unique flavor enters the market, we all go gaga over it. It is very difficult to stick to the same Face wash for a longer time. This scenario is completely different if you have a problematic and acne prone skin. It becomes necessary for you to settle for a fixed skin care routine and a specific face wash or a cleanser, probably the best one that suits the requirements and type of your skin. Brevoxyl Creamy wash Cleanser (Benzoyl Peroxide creamy wash 4 %) is specially designed for such problematic, oily and acne prone skin. Read on to know why this product should immediately land up in your skin care bag.
Product Description: Brevoxyl Creamy Wash contains 4% w/w benzoyl peroxide in aqueous cream base. Benzoyl Peroxide has antibacterial activity against Propionibacterium acnes, the organism implicated in acne vulgaris. It has keratolytic activity and is sebostatic, counteracting the hyperkeratinisation and excessive sebum secretion associated with acne. Brevoxyl Creamy Wash is indicated for the topical treatment of mild to moderate acne vulgaris.
Price: 50 g for Rs. 130/-
Composition: Hydrous Benzoyl Peroxide BP equivalent to anhydrous Benzoyl peroxide 4%.
Directions for use: Shake well before use. Wash the affected areas, once or twice daily or as directed by Physician. Wet skin areas to be treated, apply Brevoxyl Creamy Wash and massage gently (leave for 30 seconds). Rinse thoroughly and pat dry.
My Experience with Brevoxyl Creamy wash Cleanser (Benzoyl Peroxide creamy wash 4 %)
The packaging is very simple, and the tube comes in a small white carton with an instruction guide in it. Brevoxyl creamy Wash cleanser comes in a white opaque tube with a screw type sturdy cap over it. The tube is medium size, light weight and easy to carry around, which makes this product very travel friendly.
Since it’s benzyol peroxide cleanser, it has no fragrance. The texture is very creamy. A pea size amount is literally enough to cleanse the whole face and neck. You need to add few drops of water to make the consistency little runny, so that it spreads out easily and smoothly on your face. You might take a while to adjust with this product since it is soap free and does not form any lather.
Contrary to popular belief, this benzoyl peroxide cleanser does not make your skin dry. Though it is specifically designed to control excess sebum, neither does it make your skin texture flaky, nor it takes away the natural shine. I believe it’s because of its creamy texture. Brevoxyl creamy wash is a slow worker. Don’t expect any immediate results. I have oily skin with mild acne and my skin experienced visible improvement every week.
Week 1: Didn’t see much changes. The only result i saw; my skin was less oily. As i mentioned earlier, it is slow worker and will take nearly 1 week for your skin to get adapted.
Week 2: I noticed my skin becoming clean, as it pulls out excess sebum and dirt, making it look clear. At the end of week 2 my acne was fading, and clogged pores reduced drastically.
Week 3: At this point, i had no new acne. My pores were looking clean. my skin had natural shine with a healthy glow.
Week 4: By now, my skin had become more and more clear and my acne was under control. Overall, i was happy the way my skin looked now.
So, that was my experience with Brevoxyl creamy wash. I still use this cleanser twice daily. Remember, what worked or me may not work the same way for you. I was very consistent with my skin care routine and never skipped a day. As i said earlier, i had very little to mild acne, so it worked for me really well. The results may vary depending on the the severity of your skin condition.
Final thought: I would definitely recommend this cleanser to all those who have oily skin. It works best on clogged pores and to control excess sebum. Also, if you have mild to moderate acne, this cleanser is your catch.
