Not having immediate access to benzoyl peroxide, i decided to try just rubbing my face a little hydrogen peroxide instead. it works GREAT, nukes my moderate acne almost immediately, but my worry is if it might be bleaching my skin/hair at all. ive been using 3% h2o2 for about 2 weeks, and upon close inspection it seems like my eyebrows have gotten s little lighter. Is this effect significant? Would it be lessened with benzoyl peroxide? should i maybe dilute the h2o2 to a lower concentration? thanks in advance.

what?
I am too lazy to verify this, but isn't the 'Practiv' package that Jessica Simpson pushes - isn't the main ingredient hydrogen peroxide?
>>247128well both hydrogen peroxide and benzoyl peroxide do essentially the same thing, and benzoyl peroxide is also a moderate bleaching agent.Proactive is actually a hormone if irc, but dont take my word for it.
bump for answers, dont want to end up like michael jackson, but the acne sucks too...
