About Benzoyl Peroxide

Benzoyl Peroxide is an individual ingredient used in cosmetics.[1] In cosmetics, it is used to cause reactions that oxidize other ingredients.[1] In Europe, it may be used at up to 0.7% in artificial nail products mixed immediately before use.[2] It is described as a white powder with no distinct odor, so when used in solid form it is important to dissolve or disperse it evenly first to prevent clumping in the formulation.[3]
