Benzac AC 5% Gel is a water-based topical spot treatment designed to address individual acne blemishes. This 50 g tube delivers a 5% benzoyl peroxide formulation to affected areas, helping support clearer-looking skin as part of a simple, focused routine for teens and adults. It is intended for external use only and should be used as directed in the accompanying leaflet.

• Active ingredient: 5% benzoyl peroxide (50 mg/g) in a water-based gel prepared for external use on affected skin.
• Size: 50 g tube, formulated for spot treatment on visible blemishes rather than full-face coverage.
• Texture: Lightweight, non-greasy gel that absorbs quickly without clogging pores, suitable for daily use on clean skin.
• How to use: Step 1 – wash the affected area with a mild cleanser and water, then pat dry. Step 2 – apply a thin film to the affected areas once daily, leaving on the skin for 2 hours before washing off with water and drying. Step 3 – apply a light non-comedogenic moisturiser. After three days, if no discomfort is felt, apply Benzac AC Gel in the evening and leave it on all night.
• Skin-care compatibility: Pair with a non-comedogenic moisturiser to maintain skin hydration and support the skin barrier during use.
• Targeted relief: Designed to focus treatment on pimples and blemishes, helping you manage occasional breakouts without a full-face application.

Benzac AC 5% Gel aims to support clearer-looking skin by delivering benzoyl peroxide directly to the pore where acne forms. This topical treatment is best used as part of a consistent skincare routine and may require time to show noticeable improvement. If you experience dryness or irritation, consider reducing wear time or frequency and using a lightweight moisturiser in between applications. Always read the information leaflet for full directions and consult a healthcare professional if you have sensitive skin or ongoing skin concerns.
