Salicylic Acid Cleanser

A face cleanser with salicylic acid is especially beneficial for people with oily skin and those who experience mild to moderate acne. If you find yourself battling frequent breakouts, blackheads, or whiteheads, this cleanser could be a game-changer for you. Its ability to deeply clean pores makes it an extremely effective, side-effect free method to manage and prevent mild to moderate acne.

A salicylic acid cleanser offers several benefits for your skin, making it a popular choice for those looking to maintain a clear and healthy complexion. Here are the key advantages:

• Deep Cleans Pores: Salicylic acid penetrates deep into the skin to dissolve dirt and oil, helping to unclog pores.
• Reduces Acne: By removing dead skin cells and excess oil, it prevents the formation of acne.
• Promotes Exfoliation: It aids in the natural exfoliation process of the skin, revealing a brighter and more even skin tone.
• Soothes Inflammation: Known for its anti-inflammatory properties, salicylic acid can reduce redness and swelling associated with acne.

Incorporating a salicylic acid cleanser into your skincare routine can lead to visibly clearer skin and a reduction in blemishes over time. Most people can expect to experience visibly clearer, healthier skin with fewer blemishes and improved skin tone and texture after just 4-6 weeks of consistent use.

Using a salicylic acid cleanser every day can be beneficial for your skin, but it's important to start slowly, especially if you're new to it. Salicylic acid is a powerful ingredient known for its ability to deeply cleanse pores and reduce acne. Initially, you might want to use the cleanser a few times a week to see how your skin responds. If your skin tolerates it well, you can gradually increase the usage to daily. This approach helps your skin adjust without causing irritation or dryness. Remember, everyone's skin is unique, so listen to your skin and adjust your routine accordingly.

When you begin incorporating a skin cleanser with salicylic acid into your routine, there are a few things you might notice:

• Initial Purging: Some people experience a purging phase, where the skin breaks out more at first. This is temporary and occurs as the salicylic acid clears out the pores.
• Dryness or Irritation: You might find your skin feeling dry or slightly irritated in the beginning, but any irritation tends to subside with continued use, as your skin adjusts to the product. Using a moisturizer can help counteract this.
• Clearer Skin Over Time: With consistent use, you should start seeing a reduction in acne and an overall improvement in your skin's texture and appearance.

Adjusting the frequency of use based on how your skin responds is key to enjoying the benefits of a salicylic acid cleanser without the drawbacks. Remember, achieving clearer skin is a gradual process that requires patience and consistency.

Massage a pea-sized amount of our Salicylic Acid Cleanser into wet skin for 30 seconds to a minute and rinse off. Avoid the eye area. If you’re new to chemical exfoliants, start out slowly by using this product around 3 times per week and slowly build up to daily use if your skin can tolerate it. On days that you don’t use this, use our Hydrating Gentle Daily Cleanser to wash your face instead. Continue use even once your skin has cleared up. Follow up with a suitable moisturizer. We highly recommend either our Crème B3-B5-E with 4% niacinamide or the AccuHydra Hydrating Gel Crème for acne prone skin types.

Salicylic acid exfoliates the skin, unclogs pores, and combats acne. It also possesses anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, and anti-inflammatory properties, and regulates oil production
• Glycolic Acid: Glycolic acid, an alpha hydroxy acid (AHA), exfoliates the skin's surface, promoting cell turnover and revealing a brighter, more even complexion. It also aids in improving skin texture, reducing the appearance of fine lines, and unclogging pores.
• Grapeseed Oil: A lightweight, non-comedogenic oil that moisturises the skin and offers antioxidant protection. It also contains a high level of linoleic acid, which research indicates is deficient in the sebum of individuals with acne. Linoleic acid also helps strengthen cell membranes and has anti-inflammatory properties that further benefit the skin.
