The powerhouse behind Malezia's four step regimen. Our moisturizer may hydrate the daylights out of skin, but this is what treats acne, eliminates blackheads, and refines texture! 😉

Our advanced acne treatment uses 2.5% micronized benzoyl peroxide, an FDA-approved antiseptic, to target acne with precision.

The micronization process breaks down particles to a finer size, enhancing skin tolerance and reducing irritation risk. 

This method ensures effective acne management without compromising the skin's natural moisture balance. In fact, clinical studies have even shown that micronized benzoyl peroxide can increase skin moisture levels.

For reference, our benzoyl peroxide has an average particle size of 5 microns: smaller than the size of a bacteria cell.

We've also included 0.5% sodium phytate for its ability to boost skin moisture and elasticity, regulate oil production, and combat hyperpigmentation.

Inactive ingredients: Water, Propanediol, Glycerin, Carbomer, Sodium Phytate, Sodium Hydroxide

Skeptical at first, but it saved my skin!

I've suffered from hormonal acne all throughout my life and I've tried just about everything: Korean skincare, diet change, prescriptions, supplements, etc, but nothing really worked and those stubborn nodular acne always cropped back up whenever they pleased with no rhyme or reason.
It got really bad in Dec 2023 when I randomly started having terrible inflammation along with some whiteheads—which I normally don't get with my kind of acne—and I lost complete confidence in myself. I didn't want to go out, and if I did, it was only with a mask on, which only exacerbated my condition. Around that time I was on a balanced diet and my skincare routine hadn't changed, but something internally must've happened that I couldn't see or understand. I tried to have patience and give it time to heal, but when spring rolled around and it was still the same, I started freaking out and did a huge skincare rehaul.
I saw the inflammation go down with the new skincare routine, but I was still getting those pesky nodular acne and they even started developing on my cheeks when before it was solely isolated on my chin area. By August of 2024, I decided I needed to change some things up again.
Come August 2024, as a birthday gift, I bought Malezia's skincare products—everything from the cleansers to the moisturizer to the BP gel. I was honestly skeptical at first because I left American skincare behind in my high school years because their products burned my skin. I haven't looked back from my Korean skincare since, but with how saturated the market is nowadays with Korean beauty products, everything felt like a scam these days.
Two months later into Malezia, my inflammation has calmed and I only get about one nodular acne every week! I'm realistic and know I can't get rid of this hormonal acne unless I address the internal issue, but no doctor or dietician or esthetician has been able to help me so I can only help myself at this point and this is more promising that I ever thought! I can live with one volcano a week so long as I never go back to December ever again! Thank you, Malezia!
On another note, I am concerned about the PIH (post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation) I always get after a breakout and it doesn't seem like Malezia has something on their line to address dark spots yet, so I've been using a vitamin c serum recently because I noticed these spots weren't fading as fast as they normally do from my previous skincare routine.

Gentler than other brands yet waaay more effective

I have another 5% BP product which is way less micronised, it even feels grainy or chunky compared to this one, and this one is only 2.5% but so silky smooth and doesn't f with my skin barrier. It treated a melassezia outbreak that had really bedded in and spread across my whole chest area and even up my lower neck. In one week it has gone away to almost completely, probably about 10% to get rid of but I feel like it's actually going to heal fully for the first time in 10 years of having to battle it.

Unglaublich gut

Ein kleine Fingerspitze reicht vollkommen aus. Am nächsten morgen sind die roten Pickel bereits verschwunden. Nutzt nur bitte die Sandwich Methode. Gesicht mit einer Feuchtigkeitscreme eincremen, danach diese Creme nutzen. Kurz einwirken lassen und dann nochmal eine Feuchtigkeitscreme nutzen. Es trocknet überhaupt nicht aus. Einfach toll. Ich bin begeistert, wirklich.

Love this stuff 10/10.

I use sparingly at night layered over the moisturiser - this combo turned my skin (acne prone, dry, sensitive) around like nothing else I’ve tried. I haven’t seen the need to switch up my routine since then and have been buying since it launched. 1 tubes lasts me easily 4+ months as a little really goes a long way.
It will bleach any wet fabric that it comes into contact with, but I just switched to white hand towels and have no issues now.
I also randomly discovered that this stuff can work wonders on fungal hand eczema after applying this to a stubborn patch I’d had for months, and seeing it clear up almost completely overnight.

Scalp folliculitis

Suffered for 20 years with spots all over head tried absolutely everything, nothing worked. 2.5% Bp is the key as it doesn’t irritate like the stronger ones do. 2 or 3 weeks after using it’s stayed clear so I haven’t got any photos to show! Thank you

Amazing Products!!!

I recently discovered that my moisturizer was causing my forehead breakouts after previously thinking it was fungal acne-safe. After some frantic web searching, I found this brand and have been so happy with the results. I started off with the cleansing balm and moisturizer, then decided to also try out the acne treatment gel. My skin purged a bit with the cleansing balm, which I expected and was prepared for. The moisturizer is super hydrating and doesn't leave any sticky feeling on my face. The acne treatment gel goes on just like a moisturizer and sinks in super fast as well. I'm super happy with my results and my skin is clearer than it has been in years! I still have some scarring but my texture is all gone!

Amazing

I'm using this product for about 2 month now and my fungal acne is almost over, I'm so happy thank you so much. I'm following the Regimen steps

Really works!

I get acne around my T zone area and using the Acne Treatment Gel and Moisturiser has done wonders for me! Not only did it help with minimising breakouts, it has helped smooth out the texture on my forehead. I only use a small amount of the gel and it doesn't dry out my skin at all. These have been such a god send. Thank you so much Malezia! I recently ordered my 2nd bottle. My first one lasted me around 2 years.

So glad I found this

I have had chest/back acne for as long as I can remember (mid-30s now), and tried a bunch of products that proved completely ineffective. No idea if it was bacterial or fungal, but after a few weeks of using this gel twice a day (plus the moisturiser when my skin got irritated, but mostly just the gel as I figured the skin on my chest/back is thicker and less sensitive than the face) -- my skin is 90% clear! This is truly a wonder product. Please note that around the 6-week mark, I considered stopping the treatment because my skin suddenly started looking much worse.... but I continued, since I wanted to give it a chance to work, in case this was just a purging phase. I'm glad I stuck with it, as my skin quickly cleared up after that. The only thing I'm unsure of is whether I'll have to keep using this product in order to maintain clear skin. I will start to reduce the frequency of use and see how it goes.

Love love love

I'm really impressed with this BP gel! Every other benzoyl peroxide product I’ve tried like panoxyl 4%, was super irritating, but this one isn’t. It’s lightweight, absorbs quickly, and doesn’t leave my skin feeling red. It’s another must-have from Malezia!
