The Ordinary Salicylic Acid 2% Solution is a targeted treatment for acne-prone skin that effectively exfoliates the inside of pores to reduce breakouts and blackheads. Salicylic acid (BHA) is oil-soluble, meaning it can penetrate deep into the skin to dissolve sebum and dead skin cells that clog pores, helping to prevent future blemishes while reducing inflammation.
This lightweight, fast-absorbing formula is designed to be gentle yet effective, making it suitable for daily use. In addition to its exfoliating properties, salicylic acid has antibacterial benefits, further supporting skin health and preventing acne-causing bacteria from thriving.
Suitable for oily, combination, and acne-prone skin, this solution is free from alcohol, fragrance, and silicones. Apply a thin layer to affected areas after cleansing and before moisturizing. Due to its exfoliating nature, always pair it with sunscreen during the day to protect the skin from sun damage.
