Gently rub the benzoyl peroxide cleanser into the skin for 10-20 seconds. Work into a full lather and rinse thoroughly and then XXXXXXX dry. If too much drying occurs, you may need to rinse the cleanser off sooner or use it less often. 3. Applying salicylic acid Regularly - helps unclog pores. Apply a thin film of the Salicylic acid lotion to the areas of your skin affected by acne, usually 1 to 2 times a day after cleansing with Benzoyl peroxide Cleanser. Most of the acne get cured by these methods with in 6 to 8 weeks. If these treatments do not work, then you need Topical antibiotics like clindamycin and Topical retinoids. Hope this helps.
