Benzoyl peroxide or la Roche posay effaclar duo

Hi I have acne, texture, closed comedones etc and I’m trying to pick a treatment to treat my concerns. I have 5% benzoyl peroxide and the la Roche posay effaclar duo but I’m not sure which one would be most effective for acne. I want to use one of the treatments in my pm routine, and I’m using azeliac acid in the mornings. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated 🥰

I found Effaclar Duo helped with my acne quite a bit. I would say that it would likely be easier on your skin than benzoyl peroxide. Maybe use the benzoyl peroxide as a spot treatment? Just a thought... 😊💕

I'd use benzoyl, cause effaclar is not very effective for my acne somehow

From reviews I see online, people tend to favour BP more as being more effective for acne. I think I should get a product with it to try out for myself 😉
