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.

Customer Reviews
This product combo is it. I have perioral dermatitis (diagnosed by a dermatologist after developing it from wearing masks during COVID). Although the rash had calmed down, I would still get occasional bumps. I also had full-blown fungal acne (self-diagnosed) — little bumps all over my forehead and neck that nothing seemed to help (I tried dandruff shampoos, fungal creams, etc.).
I don't use the benzoyl peroxide around my mouth because I’m worried it might trigger my perioral dermatitis again. But I do use the cleanser and moisturizer all over my face, and since starting, I’ve been getting significantly fewer bumps from the dermatitis. As for the fungal acne — the benzoyl peroxide was magic. It really helped clear my forehead when nothing else had.
At the same time, I was also working with a naturopath to heal SIBO in my gut. I followed a supplement protocol: six weeks of berberine, Saccharomyces boulardii, and ADP oregano multiple times a day, followed by four weeks of Neem (three times daily) and S. boulardii (twice daily).
Between these products and the gut healing, my skin is now the clearest it’s been in four years.
One thing to note: my skin never tolerated other benzoyl peroxide products before. But this one is a cream, and I built up slowly to using it every night without irritation. I really hope they never stop selling these products.
Highly recommend sticking to just these three products — cleanser, moisturizer, and benzoyl peroxide. I tried alternating Differin (adapalene) because it had worked for me in the past, but my results were way better when I kept it simple.
Photos were taken about two months apart.
If you’ve been struggling with your skin for a long time, you have to try this combo!
I've tried so many things for my acne and nothing has ever worked. If anything other products make it worse. I actually chemically burned my face with a face wash I bought at the store and then someone at my work told me about Malezia and my face has never looked better. I am so grateful for this product and it's given me SO much confidence. I finally feel comfortable in my skin. I am not one to leave reviews but I had to for Malezia. ❤️
Where do I start?! I have dealt with Malassezia Folliculitis for over 4 years. I have tried everything under the sun, spent so much money on derm visits & have been on multiple creams, washes, oral antibiotics, diys. NOTHING worked. Finally a few months ago I was SICK of it & decided to research on my own. I came across this brand & was hesitant at first, because it sounded too good to be true… ordered the regimen bundle & started using it based strictly on the instructions. At first it was trial & error because my skin had to adjust to the benzoyl peroxide, then I started to see improvement. Again, still hesitant because my Folliculitis (fungal acne) has always come & gone. But I am now going in 3 weeks of these products & my skin has NEVER been better. I am beyond impressed with these products. If you are debating on purchasing this brand, just do it! Read the instructions & recommendations & start off slow if you’re scared. I am forever grateful for this & the simple skincare blog, which I also recommend everyone to read up on. 🙏🏽
I will attach before & after pictures to see how dramatic of a change I’ve experienced, otherwise I am done with my rant. Goodluck everyone!
One of the best if not *the* best BP formula on the market. It has made such a difference in controlling the acne that I’m still getting in my thirties without drying out my skin or creating more irritation. I’m on my third bottle and can’t imagine using any other all over topical treatment. I like that as long as I follow the recommendations for first opening, I can easily control how much product I get and effectively get all the product out of the packaging. I haven’t branched out beyond this yet but I’m looking forward to trying more from this brand.
The only (minor) con to me is that the cap is too small/narrow for the tube to stand up on its own. However, I understand prioritizing reduced plastic usage over the convenience of having a wider cap to allow it the tube to stand up like some other brands have for their aluminum packaging. If ya’ll made a little reusable donut style stand that the top of the tube can fit into to hold it up, maybe from the same material as the metal key, I’d be first in line.
I read every review on this product before buying and I thought it was too good to be true. I was consistent for 8 months every night and my bumps vanished. I didn’t realize I had fungal acne until I used this product!!! No more bumps or cystic acne. The clearest skin I’ve ever had in my life!!!! Buy it if you’re skeptical, you won’t regret it.
After getting acne in my 30s, and really not being able to stick to skin care regime because it didn't feel like anything worked, this has finally worked. My skin isn't perfect, as think I might need some rosacea cream to finish the job. But this has made a huge difference.
It also feels so good on my skin, not drying, my skin actually just feels like my skin again instead of switching between dry and oily and spots and peeling. It's just been consistently good since I've been using these products. I've now expanded to add the MCT oil and cleansing balm. :)
I have been on and off oral and topical medication for years now, where my sebhoerric dermatitis and acne would clear up when I was taking a course of oral medications and it would come back, often worse than before, when the course ended. After doing this cycle for many years, I was getting fed up and decided to take matters into my own hands. I found F.C.s blog post and so found Malezia and decided to try this regime while overhauling my makeup and skincare to replace with things that are dermatitis friendly. I was skeptical that it would work, but it has cleared my acne and basically cleared by sebhoerric dermatitis. The moisturiser is AMAZING, it makes my skin feel so hydrated and the acne treatment gel works incredibly well, without being so strong that it bleaches my sheets or clothes. I could not recommend these products enough for anyone with sebhoerric dermatitis. I felt hopeless about my skin and that doctor’s couldn’t help me, but this has cleared my skin so much more than I could have dreamed. The entire texture of my skin has improved drastically, and after using this regime every day for around six months I only have one patch of dermatitis on my forehead and the rest of my face is dermatitis/acne clear. LOVE these products and will be repurchasing for as long as I can.
I had tried so many other skin care products and still struggled with mild acne but then my sister recommended Malezia and it saved my skin completely. Fantastic product!
I have been using the Malezia core-regimen routine, including the benzoyl peroxide gel, since February. I had a very deep breakout at the base of my neck and a spot on my upper chest, plus some less problematic ones. I've had consistent improvement and have made great progress. The spots are really just discolored skin now; they don't hurt at all. I don't have to use as much now, but keep it handy. I trust the Malezia brand to be pure. They have done their research.
This treatment gel has been an absolute game changer for my daughter! Along with the rest of the acne regimen, it has cleared up her skin and kept it that way. I recommend it to everyone I know.
