I Get Acne On My Forehead And Want To Use

Question: I get acne on my forehead and want to use a benzoyl peroxide wash. Can I use this in the shower? I was thinking I would put it on my forehead, let it sit for about 20 seconds, and then close my eyes and let the shower water hit my face. However, I'm wondering if small amounts could get in my eyes (or maybe in my eyebrows and then eventually drip into the eyes)? What is the best way to use the wash on the forehead? Thanks.

Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome to ask a doctor service. I have gone through your query and noted your concern.
You can certainly use benzoyl peroxide face wash on your face. First wet your face. Then massage the face wash gently on the face at the affected area for 20 seconds and finally rinse it off thoroughly with your eyes closed. It won't get into your eyes.
