Ingredient

Salicylic Acid

An oil-soluble exfoliating acid that helps support clearer-looking pores and visibly improve the look of congestion.

What it does

Penetrates into pores to help dissolve oil-based buildup, supporting cleaner-looking skin and a reduction in the visible appearance of blackheads and blemishes. Also has soothing properties.

Glow notes

Salicylic acid is an oil-soluble beta hydroxy acid, or BHA, commonly used in clarifying skincare. Its oil-soluble nature makes it especially useful in formulas designed for the look of clogged pores, blackheads + excess oil.

Salicylic acid also exfoliates at the skin's surface, helping improve the look of buildup + uneven texture.

Think of it as a clarifying ingredient for routines focused on congestion, oil + spot-prone skin — with frequency + formula strength chosen based on your skin's needs.

Routine note

Best used in the evening, especially when first introducing exfoliation. Start 2–3x per week and increase based on skin response.
