If bothersome dryness or peeling occurs, reduce application to every other day.

"I loved that this had a vaguely turmeric scent. I noticed it made my skin brighter and acne free through consistent use. Would definitely recommend!"

What are the differences between benzyol peroxide and sulfur pimple treatments?
Both benzoyl peroxide and sulfur are effective over-the-counter acne treatments, but they work in different ways and may be better suited for different skin types and acne severity.
Benzoyl peroxide: Effective for mild to moderate inflammatory acne, like papules and pustules. Can be harsh and cause dryness, redness, or irritation. May stain clothing.
Sulphur: Effective for milder inflammatory acne, fungal acne, and comedones. Gentler making it a good choice for sensitive or adult skin. Will not stain clothing.
For the Shaant skincare collection, Ayurvedic plants, such as gotu kola or patchouli, have been vetted with Western scientific tools, like their effect on gene expression in skin cells and clinical tests on patients with acne.
