Differin Acne Class Action Settlement FAQs
Common questions about this class action settlement.
Which products were covered?
Three Differin benzoyl peroxide products: the Daily Deep Cleanser at 5 percent, the Acne Spot Treatment at 10 percent and the Maximum Strength Acne Foaming Cleanser at 10 percent, bought in the United States for personal household use between January 1, 2020 and February 19, 2026.
How did the two claim routes differ?
Without proof a household could claim up to three covered products at $9 each, for $27 in total. With acceptable proof the same $9 per product applied but with no cap on the number claimed. One claim was allowed per household either way.
Was proof of purchase required?
Not for the first three products. Beyond that, documentation was needed. That two tier structure keeps an accessible route open for the ordinary buyer while paying more to a class member who kept receipts.
Can I still file a claim?
No. The deadline was May 19, 2026 and it has passed. This page remains as a record of what the settlement covered.
