Overview
Rugby Laboratories packages its SUVELAM acne gel in a 1.5 ounce tube, built around benzoyl peroxide at 5% in a vanishing, greaseless formula for treating whole body acne pimples in adults.
Benzoyl peroxide at 5% sits at a moderate strength, above the 2.5% entry point but below 10% formulas, which tends to balance effectiveness against irritation. The vanishing, greaseless claim in the name points to a formula meant to disappear into skin rather than leave a visible film, useful under makeup or before dressing.
- 1.5 fl oz tube
- 5% benzoyl peroxide
- Greaseless, vanishing finish
- Whole body use
Who it's for
Suits adults treating body or facial acne who want a moderate strength, 5% benzoyl peroxide gel without a heavy or greasy residue. Not intended for young children given the adult age range on the listing.

Performance notes
Benzoyl peroxide works by releasing oxygen into pores, which kills acne causing bacteria and helps clear existing pimples. At 5%, this gel sits in a middle strength range meant to treat acne while limiting the redness and peeling that higher concentrations can cause.
