Overview

Equate's 10% benzoyl peroxide gel is a store-brand spot treatment sold as a match for Clean & Clear Persa-Gel 10, packaged as a 1 ounce tube of unscented, fragrance-free gel for acne-prone skin.

Sold as a compare-to product, it targets the same benzoyl peroxide concentration and gel format as the name-brand version at a lower price point. It's formulated fragrance free and microbead free, which keeps the ingredient list short for anyone patch-testing a new spot treatment.

  • 10% benzoyl peroxide concentration
  • 1 fluid ounce tube
  • Fragrance free and hypoallergenic
  • Compare-to formula for Persa-Gel 10

Who it's for

Suits people who already tolerate benzoyl peroxide and want a plain, fragrance-free gel to dab on active breakouts. Not for anyone who hasn't used benzoyl peroxide before and wants a dermatologist recommendation first.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Matches a known 10% benzoyl peroxide formula at lower cost
  • Fragrance-free and hypoallergenic gel base
  • Tube packaging suits precise spot application
Cons
  • 1 ounce size means it's a treatment, not a full routine step
  • Benzoyl peroxide can dry or irritate skin without gradual introduction

Performance notes

Benzoyl peroxide works by killing acne-causing bacteria and drying out excess oil at the site it's applied, which is why it's sold as a spot treatment in a small tube rather than an all-over facial product.
