Introduction About PEROBAR 5% BAR
Perobar Soap is a cleansing soap used to manage acne. It is also used to soothe, cleanse, or nourish the skin. It contains Benzoyl Peroxide as active ingredient that kills the infection causing bacteria, removes dirt, excess oil and unclog pores.
Benzoyl Peroxide gets converted into benzoic acid which releases active free-radical oxygen. These free radicals interfere with important bacterial function and survival, hence killing them. It also increases the turnover rate of skin cells which helps in managing acne.

Work up a good lather with it and leave for few minutes, then rinse with water and pat dry the application area. Use it 2-3 times daily. Do not exceed the daily recommended dosages.
