Benzoyl Peroxide Skincare Routine

Get an acne-fighting routine built around benzoyl peroxide, chosen by AI.

Benzoyl peroxide is one of the most effective acne treatments available without a prescription. It works by killing Cutibacterium acnes (the bacteria that causes inflammatory acne) and has antimicrobial properties that bacteria cannot develop resistance to — unlike antibiotics. The catch is that BP is notoriously drying, bleaches fabrics, and can cause significant irritation if misused. Lower concentrations (2.5%) have been shown to be just as effective as 10% with far less irritation, and short-contact therapy (washing it off after a few minutes) is a game-changer for sensitive skin.

How Our AI Builds Your Benzoyl Peroxide Routine

Right Concentration, Less Irritation

Our AI recommends the lowest effective concentration for your acne severity — 2.5% for mild, up to 5% for moderate — avoiding the unnecessary irritation of higher percentages.

Barrier Protection Built In

BP is harsh. Our AI surrounds it with gentle cleansers, ceramide-rich moisturizers, and hydrating serums that protect your barrier while the BP fights bacteria.

Conflict-Free Routine

Benzoyl peroxide does not play well with retinol, vitamin C, or AHAs. Our AI schedules your actives to avoid deactivation and irritation.
