Should I avoid using Benzoyl Peroxide if Proactiv left me with dry and red skin? It also didnt get rid of acne?
Proactiv helped maybe 25% of my acne at best (im being pretty generous here). To me the first and last step of the 3 step process makes my skin very dry, red, irritated, and flaky. Its even worse now that it is winter time. I researched and i realized that benzoyl peroxide is making my skin dry. I am 15 years old and i should have oily skin since im going through puberty but i think i really have sensitive skin since im so easily affected by benzoyl peroxide. So teh question is, should i avoid benzoyl and go for products that contain Salicylic acid as the active ingredient?
Here are the products im considering
Kiehl’s Acne Blemish Control Daily Skin-Clearing Treatment
or Neutrogena Advance Solutions Complete System
This is the oil free moistureizer i plan on buying if my skin gets dry after using acne products

if ur having problems with acne, u should really go and see a dermatologist. when i was your age, i had really bad acne and was pulled in by tv ads and drug store products. I went and saw a dermatologist. he gave me a medication and within the first month i wasn’t getting any new beak outs. now i’m 22 and lots of ppl compliment me on my clear skin. the earlier u go see a doctor the better. trust me, its better to go and see someone who specializes in skin care rather than coming up with your own remedies that don’t work.
