Dryness and benzol peroxide

Hey there

I've been on Dianette for over a year now and it was working great until recently when I've been getting spots again. My doctor prescribed Benzamycin and it gets rid of the spots but it makes my skin so dry and cracked, it almost looks as bad as the spots! So I was wondering what people used to moisturise their skin when using benzol peroxide topical treatments and if it's any good!

Cheers xx

Just find a moisturizer that is both oil free and non-comedogenic (won't clog pores).

If your skin is to dry, your face will produce more oil to compensate which can be a bad thing as your pores will become clogged causing spots.
