Exclusion Criteria:

• Female subjects: Self-reported pregnant or breast feeding, or planning to become pregnant during the course of the study;

• Known allergy or hypersensitivity to acne treatment products;

• Current skin disease of any type in the test area (e.g. eczema, psoriasis, rosacea, seborrheic dermatitis, vitiligo, etc.), or under the treatment of a doctor for any skin condition;

• Have any cystic acne, acne conglobate, acne fulminans, or secondary acne (chloracne or drug-induced acne) in the test area;

• Any conditions on the test site that would interfere with evaluations (i.e. tattoos, scars, open cuts, sunburn, piercings, excessive hair, etc.);

• Use of topical treatments such as OTC (over the counter) acne medication topical anti-inflammatory medications, salicylic acid, corticosteroids, antibiotics, anti-bacterials, peroxide-containing products, or retinoids within 2 weeks of baseline;

• Use of depigmenting medications such as hydroquinone during the 14 days prior to the study start; Insulin dependent diabetes;

• Concurrent medication that might affect the response to the test articles including routine use of anti-inflammatory medications, anti-histamines, and steroids;

• History of Crohn's disease, or clinically significant enteritis (regional enteritis, ulcerative colitis, pseudomembranous colitis, antibiotic-associated colitis);

• Microdermabrasion or laser treatment in the test area within six months of the study;

• Medical condition which, in the opinion of the Investigator, would compromise the safety of the subject or confound study results;

• Use of systemic antibiotics, corticosteroids, antimalarials or oral dapsone within 4 weeks of baseline;

• Use of other anti-acne medications, including isotretinoin or spironolactone, within 6 months of baseline;
