GlyMed Plus Clear Skin Cleanser is a low-foaming, creamy gel treatment cleanser that uses 2.5% benzoyl peroxide to target acne-causing bacteria and reduce both inflamed breakouts like pustules and non-inflamed breakouts like blackheads and clogged pores. The formula is noticeably gentler than most benzoyl peroxide cleansers, layering in aloe vera and orange peel oil to calm irritation and support skin recovery while the active ingredient does its work. A light citrus scent from the orange peel oil gives it a clean, fresh feel at the sink.

Key Benefits

Kills acne-causing bacteria Benzoyl peroxide at 2.5% penetrates the pore and eliminates the bacteria responsible for inflamed breakouts, without the harshness that comes with higher concentrations.

Reduces blackheads and breakouts over time Regular use helps decongest pores and lower the frequency of both non-inflamed blemishes like blackheads and whiteheads and inflamed lesions like papules and pustules.

Soothes while it clears Aloe barbadensis leaf juice calms redness and irritation that often accompany active breakouts, so skin feels settled rather than stripped after cleansing.

Oxygenates and detoxifies congested skin The combination of benzoyl peroxide and orange peel oil works to flush out impurities and bring oxygen into clogged pores, helping to keep congestion from building back up.

Maintains the skin barrier Glycerin and cocamidopropyl betaine keep the cleansing action from over-drying, leaving skin comfortable and hydrated rather than tight after rinsing.

If you deal with mild to moderate acne and want an effective treatment cleanser that does not leave your skin feeling raw or stripped, GlyMed Plus Clear Skin Cleanser was built for you. It works especially well for oily and combination skin types managing active breakouts alongside visible congestion like blackheads, but it is gentle enough that drier or more sensitive skin types who cannot tolerate leave-on benzoyl peroxide treatments can also benefit from it.

This cleanser is also a strong fit for anyone who has found traditional benzoyl peroxide cleansers too aggressive. The 2.5% concentration delivers real clinical impact without the excessive dryness that higher-percentage formulas often cause, making it a practical daily option for people who need consistent, ongoing acne management.

If you are new to benzoyl peroxide or find leave-on BPO treatments too drying, start by using this cleanser once daily and let it sit on the skin for 60 to 90 seconds before rinsing. This gives the active ingredient extra contact time to work without the extended exposure of a leave-on formula, making it a smart way to work BPO into your routine if your skin is on the drier or more reactive side.

Prepare: Apply to dry skin before adding water.

Apply: Massage gently into skin using small circular motions across the face, avoiding the eye area and any open breakouts.

Technique: Add a small amount of water to emulsify and work up a light foam, then rinse thoroughly with warm water.

Frequency: Use once or twice daily as tolerated. Follow with your toner, serum, and moisturizer. Apply SPF every morning after cleansing.

*Note: Benzoyl peroxide can bleach towels and fabric. Pat dry with a dedicated white or dark towel.*
