Step 5: Applying the Benzoyl Peroxide

This step is important.  Often times I've seen or heard about people incorrectly applying the Benzoyl Peroxide.  Just follow these steps and you'll be good to go =)

Apply a very small amount of 2.5% Benzoyl Peroxide to your finger tip.  Very gently rub it on to the affected area (~1 in. around every blemish).  You may need to apply it to your entire face.
Rub it in a circular motion until it becomes tacky and your finger starts to stick to your skin.
Once this occurs, start applying once again to a different area.  This ensures proper absorption into the pores.
After you've applied it to all affected areas, you're done!
