Acne treatments

With multiple acne treatments on the market, I've found benzoyl peroxide based products most effective against existing outbreaks aswell preventing them. Two products, Duac and it's over the counter equivalent Panoxyl are most widely available.

While both visibly reduce existing acne, I've found panoxyl far too harsh when used for longer periods of time. Duac on the other hand can be used for an extended periods.
Redness was often a problem I encountered when using panoxyl, duac to a lesser extent. As for dryness, as is often experienced, daily moisturisation easily combats any flakes and/or dry patches.   

These treatments are most effective when used daily, preferably in the evening. Both have a gel like consistency and should be applied on cleansed and dry skin.
