I'm trying to figure out which is better for acne - Perobar 2.5% or Dermadew Acne Soap. Ive seen some reviews mentioning that these soaps could darken the normal color of the face. Is that true?

Between Perobar 2.5% and Dermadew Acne Soap, Perobar 2.5% is likely more effective against acne._Perobar 2.5%_1. _Contains benzoyl peroxide_: A well-known acne-fighting ingredient that kills bacteria, reduces inflammation, and unclogs pores.2. _Stronger formulation_: 2.5% benzoyl peroxide is a relatively strong concentration, making it more effective against acne._Dermadew Acne Soap_1. _Milder formulation_: Dermadew Acne Soap may contain milder ingredients, such as tea tree oil or salicylic acid, which are less effective against severe acne.2. _May not be as effective_: Dermadew Acne Soap might not be as effective as Perobar 2.5% in reducing acne severity._Skin Darkening Concerns_1. _Unlikely to darken skin_: Neither Perobar 2.5% nor Dermadew Acne Soap is likely to darken your skin tone.2. _Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH)_: If you experience acne inflammation, it may lead to PIH, causing temporary dark spots.To minimize the risk of PIH, use sunscreen daily, avoid picking or popping pimples, and follow a consistent skincare routine.
