I've used PanOxyl in the past, and liked it. The only problem is that here in the US, it's only available through a prescription from a dermatologist.

The Neutrogena cream would work well for "spot treating," since that brand tends to be not as harsh on your skin.

where do you go to get your spray tanning done? because i've had the same problem of it turning orange and i don't want to get in a bed because of skin cancer issues.

I have fallen in love with BB&W's Aromatherapy Sleep in Warm Milk and Honey... it really truly does help you fall asleep

Thanks! I did go and pick up the Neutrogena On The Spot cream. It has 2.5% benzoyl peroxide - I had been using Biore Triple Action Astringent, which has salicylic acid.

I read on that acne.org site that you're supposed to smear the Neutrogena On The Spot all over your face, then apply moisturizer on top. I did that for two nights and OMG does my face ITCH. It's also really red. But my skin is more clear! Yay!

It was hard for me at first too, especially if it is particularly cold and windy/sunny where you live. It does make you a bit more sensitive to it. I was also trying 2x a day, and that was too much so I backed off and went for just 1. Moisturizer is always needed, I never thought I'd buy it because of the oil, but it apparently is the secret key ingredient. Who knew?

A word of caution: be careful with your clothes. The BP can dye your clothes so be sure to wash your hands really well and watch when you take your shirt over your head (i've gotten some rings on Tshirts that way :( )

Good warning, thanks. I accidentally turned one of my parents' dark blue towels a leeeeetle bit pink in the corner. Whoops!

I'm learning with the moisturizer. I'm glad I went with the Cetaphil; it doesn't feel too heavy.
