Use 3% Salicylic Acid Serum once or twice daily to keep deeply embedded sebum and dirt under control.
Additionally, for those with extremely oily skin, our serum can be used as a first step before using our Glycolic Acid and Lactic Acid peels.
A small amount of the salicylic acid is converted into copper salicylate, a powerful and safe anti-inflammatory. This blends skin exfoliation with skin soothing actions. Salicylate also has ultraviolet absorbing properties.
Prof. John Sorenson has researched and written extensively on beneficial actions of copper salicylate on skin, general health, and the anti-cancer properties of copper salicylates.
A leading dermatologist, Dr. Albert Kligman, believes that BHAs, in particular salicylic acid, at concentrations of about 2-3%, are better than AHAs (Glycolic Acid, Lactic Acid)for anti-aging and for skin exfoliation.
Professor Kligman is well known in dermatology for his research on the anti-aging actions of retinoic acid (Retin-A). Results from Dr. Kligman's laboratory found that the outermost stratum corneum layer is renewed after applications of salicylic acid.
Caution: Salicylic Acid Serum contains 3% salicylic acid. If you have allergies to salicylates (such as you cannot eat fruit), we recommend you use an alpha hydroxy acid such as Glycolic Acid or Lactic Acid instead.
