How do I use the Acne Solutions System?

Cleanse with the 10% benzoyl peroxide wash, apply the 5% spot treatment to active breakouts, then finish with the aloe moisturizer. Start once daily and build up as your skin tolerates it.

Is it good for sensitive skin?

The system is formulated for acne-prone, sensitive skin, with micronized benzoyl peroxide and an aloe moisturizer to reduce irritation. Very reactive skin should still patch test and ramp up slowly.

Will it bleach my towels?

Yes. Benzoyl peroxide can bleach fabrics, so rinse well and avoid contact with colored towels, pillowcases and clothing.

How long until I see results?

Most benzoyl peroxide routines need several weeks of consistent use before breakouts visibly clear. Expect gradual improvement rather than overnight results.

A full-size 10% benzoyl peroxide cleanser, a full-size 5% benzoyl peroxide spot treatment, and an aloe vera blemish soothing moisturizer.

Can I use it with retinol or other actives?

Benzoyl peroxide can make retinol and some actives less stable and increase irritation. Alternate them or check with a dermatologist before layering.

About the Acne Solutions System

Zenovia's Acne Solutions System is a 3-step routine for acne-prone, sensitive skin. It was developed by a dermatologist and includes a cleanser, a spot treatment and a moisturizer. The system is meant to help clear active breakouts, reduce redness and irritation, and soothe and hydrate the skin.

The formulas use Benzoyl Peroxide, Aloe Vera and the brand's REG-ulate360 Complex. This complex combines Resveratrol, Vitamin E, Green Tea and Genistein, a plant-derived phytoestrogen. It helps calm redness, support the skin barrier and restore an even-looking complexion.

Use the cleanser to wash the face and neck, apply the spot treatment to affected areas, then follow with the moisturizer morning and night. Benzoyl Peroxide should be introduced into a routine gradually. It can increase sun sensitivity, so use an SPF during the day.
