Evidence: In a 12-week randomized trial of 80 subjects aged 12 and over with mild-to-moderate acne, a botanical anti-inflammatory OTC skincare regimen produced significantly lower closed-comedone counts than a benzoyl peroxide comparator at week 4 (P<0.001) and week 12 (P=0.006), with fewer inflammatory lesions at week 4 (P=0.016).
