OXY launches on-the-go stick for acne treatment

OXY has launched a new on-the-go acne stick designed for mess-free treatment.

The easy-to-use stick contains benzoyl peroxide as an active ingredient to kill acne-causing bacteria. The product comes packaged in a slim, solid form to offer a portable, bathroom-free solution.

This stick is currently available online for purchase at select retailers such as Target and Rite Aid. The brand plans to introduce it at offline stores in the near future.

Mentholatum's over-the-counter (OTC) brands senior marketing director Erick Estrada said: "With teens busier than ever between school, activities, friends, and family, the OXY On-The-Go Acne Stick is the perfect product at the right time.

"Particularly with spring prom season just around the corner, students need to have confidence that there's an effective acne treatment that is as on-the-go as they are. OXY has them covered, no matter where they are."

The OXY medications are formulated using clinically proven acne-fighting ingredients such as benzoyl peroxide and salicylic acid, which are integrated into various easy-to-use forms such as pads, face washes, and spot treatments.

Designed for teenagers, OXY products are claimed to be suitable for different skin types.
