OTC acne aid

"Topical OTC Medications
Benzoyl peroxide, resorcinol, salicylic acid, and sulfur are the most common topical OTC medications used to treat acne. Each works a little differently. Benzoyl peroxide is best at killing P. acnes and may reduce oil production. Resorcinol, salicylic acid, and sulfur help break down blackheads and whiteheads. Salicylic acid also helps cut down the shedding of cells lining the follicles of the oil gland.

Topical OTC medications are available in many forms, such as gel, lotion, cream, soap, or pad."

MY REACTION:

Yep. Nothing earth-shattering here. But slightly interesting, if you didn't already know.
