This 2% Salicylic Acid (BHA) serum is formulated to address acne and blackheads by helping to unclog pores and regulate excess oil production. Salicylic acid, a beta hydroxy acid, penetrates the pores to dissolve accumulated sebum and dead skin cells, which can contribute to breakouts and congestion. The fragrance-free composition reduces the likelihood of irritation, making this product suitable for sensitive skin types. The lightweight, water-based texture absorbs quickly without leaving a greasy or sticky residue, allowing for layering with other skincare products. Each 1 fl.oz bottle provides a routine supply for daily use. The serum can be applied after cleansing and before moisturizing, either in the morning or evening. For those new to chemical exfoliants, starting with two to three applications per week is advisable before increasing to daily use based on individual tolerance. The 2% concentration is within the effective range for over-the-counter use, offering a balanced approach to managing pore visibility and oiliness. Additional soothing ingredients support the exfoliating action while helping to maintain the skin’s natural barrier. The formulation is free from alcohol, parabens, and synthetic dyes, supporting a gentler application experience. Regular use may help minimize the formation of new blemishes and refine overall skin texture. This product is designed as a whole-face serum rather than a spot treatment, intended for ongoing clarity work. A patch test is recommended before first full use. Store the bottle in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Avoid combining with other strong exfoliants or retinoids without professional guidance. Sunscreen should be applied during the day when using any exfoliating product.
