De La Cruz Acne Treatment Ointment — maximum strength 10% Sulfur Acne medication in a concentrated 6g ointment. Penetrates pores to dry and clear acne pimples and blackheads, and helps prevent new breakouts from forming. No artificial fragrance. Just two ingredients — nothing unnecessary. For external use only. What is sulfur and how does it treat acne? Sulfur is one of the oldest and most well-established acne treatments available — used in dermatology for over a century. It works through several complementary mechanisms: it is keratolytic (helps break down and shed the outer layer of dead skin cells that can clog pores), antibacterial (inhibits the growth of acne-causing bacteria), and sebostatic (helps reduce excess oil production). At 10% concentration — the maximum strength available over the counter — this ointment delivers a powerful, targeted treatment for stubborn pimples and blackheads. Unlike benzoyl peroxide, sulfur is generally less irritating and less likely to bleach fabrics, making it a popular choice for those with sensitive skin or those who have found other acne treatments too harsh. The simple two-ingredient formula — sulfur and polyethylene glycol — means no unnecessary additives, fragrances, or potential irritants. Who is this for? Those with acne pimples and blackheads needing a targeted, maximum-strength treatment People who have found benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid too harsh or irritating Those wanting a simple, no-frills acne spot treatment with minimal ingredients Anyone looking for a proven, dermatologist-trusted acne ingredient Those wanting to prevent new breakouts from forming Key benefits Sulfur 10% — maximum over-the-counter strength acne medication Penetrates pores to dry and clear acne pimples and blackheads Helps prevent new pimples and blackheads from forming Keratolytic — helps shed dead skin cells that clog pores Antibacterial — inhibits acne-causing bacteria No artificial fragrance Just two ingredients — sulfur 10% and polyethylene glycol Concentrated 6g ointment — a little goes a long way By De La Cruz — trusted skin care since 1939 Active ingredient Sulfur 10% — Acne Medication Inactive ingredient Polyethylene glycol How to use Cleanse the skin thoroughly before applying Cover the entire affected area with a thin layer Leave on for 10 minutes Rinse off thoroughly with water Start with one application daily — excessive drying may occur if used too frequently at first Gradually increase to 2–3 times daily if needed, or as directed by a doctor If bothersome dryness or peeling occurs, reduce to once daily or every other day Important warnings — please read before use For external use only Do not use on broken skin or over large areas of the skin Do not get into eyes Using another topical acne medication at the same time or immediately after may increase skin irritation and dryness — if irritation occurs, use only one topical acne medication at a time Apply only to areas with acne Stop use and consult a doctor if excessive skin irritation develops or increases Keep out of reach of children.
