Prime Can Before Initial Use: Shake can well. Firmly strike bottom of can onto palm of hand 3 times. Hold can upright and direct initial spray to a non-stick surface.

Until foam dispenses, DO NOT spray directly on the skin as the initial spray expel cold liquid propellant. Press down on actuator for 1-3 seconds until foam begins to dispense. If foam does not dispense within 3 seconds, repeat priming process.

During Use: WASH-OFF APPLICATION: Shake can well. Holding can upright, dispense Enzoclear™ Foam into palm of hand. Cover the entire affected area with a thin layer 1 to 3 times daily, or as directed by a physician. Rub in until completely absorbed. Rinse off after 2 minutes. Wipe off any excess foam from actuator after use. LEAVE-ON APPLICATION: Shake can well. Holding can upright, dispense Enzoclear™ Foam into palm of hand and apply to the affected area once daily, or as directed by a physician. For facial acne, use a dollop the size of a marble. For acne on either the back or chest, use a dollop the size of a whole walnut. Rub in until completely absorbed. Wipe off any excess foam from actuator after use.

Because excessive drying of the skin may occur, start with one application daily, then gradually increase to two to three times daily if needed or as directed by a doctor. If bothersome dryness or peeling occurs, reduce application to once a day or once every other day. Wash hands with soap and water after use. If going outside, apply sunscreen after using this product. If irritation or sensitivity develops, stop use of both products and ask a doctor.
