The Lovi Fit is the same in every country; only the stores and prices differ, and the ones here are for Australia.

Topical benzoyl peroxide improves acne more effectively than placebo, significantly decreases bacterial skin load, achieves superior treatment success with greater reductions in inflammatory and noninflammatory lesions, and provides clinically relevant improvements in lesion counts. This active ingredient suits dry skin and oily skin best, and it comes in [serums](https://lovi.care/skincare/au/ingredients/serum). It fits into a routine by working well with [niacinamide](https://lovi.care/skincare/au/ingredients/niacinamide), [ceramide-building complex](https://lovi.care/skincare/au/ingredients/ceramide-building-complex), and [zinc oxide](https://lovi.care/skincare/au/ingredients/zinc-oxide), while needing to be kept apart from [adapalene](https://lovi.care/skincare/au/ingredients/adapalene), [glycolic acid](https://lovi.care/skincare/au/ingredients/glycolic-acid), and [vitamin C](https://lovi.care/skincare/au/ingredients/vitamin-c).

## Questions and answers

### What does benzoyl peroxide do for the skin?

Topical benzoyl peroxide may help improve acne more effectively than no treatment.

[The Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2020](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32175593/)

### How do you use benzoyl peroxide?

Topical benzoyl peroxide may improve acne effectively, but it requires careful coordination with other ingredients. For instance, you can use [niacinamide](https://lovi.care/skincare/au/ingredients/niacinamide) in the same routine by applying benzoyl peroxide first and niacinamide afterward to soothe dryness and irritation.

[The Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2020](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32175593/)

### Should you use benzoyl peroxide in the morning or at night?

You can use benzoyl peroxide in the morning or at night depending on what else is in your routine, as it is used at different times from certain ingredients like [adapalene](https://lovi.care/skincare/au/ingredients/adapalene), [retinol](https://lovi.care/skincare/au/ingredients/retinol), and [vitamin C](https://lovi.care/skincare/au/ingredients/vitamin-c).

### Can you use benzoyl peroxide every day?

Yes, topical benzoyl peroxide may help improve acne when used regularly, though it carries an increased risk of treatment discontinuation due to adverse effects compared to placebo.

[The Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2020](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32175593/)

### Does benzoyl peroxide cause purging or irritation?

Yes, benzoyl peroxide may help improve acne, but it has an increased risk of treatment discontinuation due to adverse effects like irritation compared to placebo. Topical benzoyl peroxide is unlikely to cause skin purging, focusing instead on reducing bacteria and lesions.

[The Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2020](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32175593/)

### Which skin types is benzoyl peroxide best for?

Benzoyl peroxide is best for acne-prone skin, where Lovi rates Clean & Clear Persa-Gel 10 as a Superior fit. For oily acne-prone skin, Clean & Clear Persa-Gel 10 is rated as a Superior fit by Lovi.

[The Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2020](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32175593/)

### Can you use benzoyl peroxide with niacinamide?

Yes, you can use benzoyl peroxide and niacinamide together in the same routine by applying benzoyl peroxide first and niacinamide afterward. Niacinamide helps soothe the dryness and irritation caused by benzoyl peroxide.

### Can you use benzoyl peroxide with adapalene?

You should keep benzoyl peroxide and adapalene apart by using them at different times of day, applying benzoyl peroxide in the morning and adapalene at night, because they cancel each other out.
