Ingredients Details

  • Salicylic Acid (2%): An oil-soluble Beta-Hydroxy Acid (BHA) known for its powerful keratolytic action. It penetrates deep into the pore lining to dissolve the mix of dead skin cells and excess oil (sebum), effectively unclogging pores. This action helps prevent acne and breakout formation, reduces blackheads, and gently exfoliates the skin surface.
  • Zinc PCA (1%): A key ingredient that works synergistically with Salicylic Acid. It is highly effective at regulating excess oil (sebum) production, giving the serum its mattifying effect. Zinc also enhances the formula's anti-bacterial properties, directly helping to fight acne breakouts and strengthen the skin barrier against future concerns.
  • Sodium Hyaluronate (0.5%): The salt form of Hyaluronic Acid, a powerful humectant that attracts and binds water to the skin. It ensures the salicylic acid serum remains non-drying and hydrating, protecting the skin barrier, and leaving the skin feeling soft and smooth despite the potent exfoliation.
  • Salix Alba Extract (1%): Also known as Willow Bark Extract, it's a natural source of Salicylates (similar to Salicylic Acid). It contributes anti-inflammatory properties that help to quickly calm down the redness, swelling, and irritation associated with active acne, supporting effective acne breakout management.

FAQs

Questions & Answers

Have a Question?

Ask a Question
  • What is the timeline for results?

    Based on your skin's health and consistency of use, you can typically expect to see a reduction in oiliness and active breakouts within 3 to 4 weeks. Blackhead and pore size improvement may take slightly longer.

  • Which products should I avoid using with this serum at the same time?

    To prevent irritation, avoid using this salicylic acid serum in the same routine as other potent actives like Glycolic Acid, Retinol 0.5%, high-strength Vitamin C (L-Ascorbic Acid), or other strong exfoliants and Peptides. You can alternate their use (e.g., Salicylic Acid in AM, Retinol in PM).

  • Is this product suitable for blackheads around the nose?

     Absolutely. Salicylic Acid is oil-soluble, making it the ideal choice for dissolving the oil and dead cells that form blackheads around the nose and T-zone area, providing effective pore clearing.

  • When to use salicylic acid serum in my skincare routine?

    This serum is a Treat step. Apply it after cleansing and toning (Clean and Hydrate steps), but before your moisturizer. Always follow up with sunscreen if using in the AM.

  • Can I use salicylic acid serum on face daily?

    Yes, for oily or combination skin, you can use salicylic acid serum daily (AM and PM). If you have dry or sensitive acne-prone skin, start slowly, applying 3-4 times a week, preferably only in the PM.

  • What are the benefits of salicylic acid serum for my skin?

    The salicylic acid serum benefits include treating acne and breakouts, reducing excess oil and sebum, clearing blackheads and whiteheads, shrinking enlarged pores, and refining rough skin texture for a clearer, more even complexion.
