Salicylic Acid

Salicylic Acid is a popular and effective skincare ingredient, especially known for treating acne and oily skin.

As a beta-hydroxy acid (BHA), it penetrates deep into the pores, exfoliating from within to clear out impurities and reduce breakouts.

It also helps to minimize inflammation and redness associated with acne.

You’ll commonly find Salicylic Acid in cleansers, toners, and spot treatments, typically in concentrations ranging from 0.5% to 2%.

This ingredient is particularly beneficial for those with oily or acne-prone skin.

While Salicylic Acid is generally well-tolerated, some may experience mild dryness or irritation initially.

Pairing it with a gentle moisturizer can help maintain skin balance.
