I apply thin benzoyl peroxide 5% after popping out my pimple. Is it correct?

Previously I apply tea tree oil after I popped my pimple. But after few hour The pimple grew back on the same spot With. yellow colour again that I bursted before....

So I decided to use benzoyl peroxide after pop out pimple. And tree tea oil for red spot.

Am I doing correctly ?

I've tried both and it doesn't give me good result.

Now I use tretinoin (vitamin A) (can go buy in lazada/shopee), it works better.

or you can try adapalene a milder version of tretinoin.

Use it as post acne treatment or daily cream?

Can I have direct link pls? Search in Shopee but it say couldn’t find the product

tretinoin: https://www.lazada.com.my/products/philippi...yekBVs&search=1

adapalene: https://shopee.com.my/CLEARANCE-STOCK!&...6399.1527605324



the tretinoin i use it like toner.

it's a direct treatment for acne, so use it when you have acne. it is full of alcohol, if your skin can't take alcohol, buy adapalene instead.

btw, since my skin is oily, tretinoin will make it less oily.

however if you are normal or dry skin, use adapalene instead.

i remember in the tretinoin instruction mentioned for every 2 months, then stop for 1 week ... something like that.

I more prefer use pure Aloe Vera Gel.
Aloe owning anti inflammatory effect.
Pimple ease after apply without need of popping.

Yes adapalene is milder than tretinoin. I find that Benzoyl dries up the pimple faster than tea tree but it dries the skin too.

I go to SkinLab to get a manuka honey mask which is quite effective in clearing pimples. You can ask for sample if you don't want to buy the product.

benzac gel works.
benzoyl is is ok but not for pple with rough dry skin.
