Classified as a beta hydroxy acid (BHA), it is renowned for its efficacy in combating acne by gently exfoliating the skin and maintaining clear pores. Its unique oil-soluble nature allows it to penetrate deep into the pore lining, effectively unclogging pores from within. This targeted exfoliation makes it particularly adept at reducing breakouts, including blackheads and whiteheads. Salicylic acid also helps to regulate sebum production, offering relief to individuals with oily or combination skin types. For those new to salicylic acid, it’s advisable to start with lower concentrations and perform a patch test, especially if you have sensitive skin, to ensure compatibility and minimise the risk of irritation.
