Description

A daily treatment for blemishes.

Gently exfoliating the inside walls of the skin, Salicylic Acid 2% Solution clears and clarifies the complexion. To be used directly over blemishes only, this strong acid visibly reduces redness and inflammation by targeting congested pores.

How to conduct an at-home patch test

A gorgeous product

I've been using The Ordinary’s Salicylic Acid 2% for a couple of weeks and it’s honestly a game-changer for breakouts! It clears up pimples, helps unclog pores, and smooths out texture without feeling heavy or greasy. My skin feels cleaner, less congested, and more even.
