Salicylic Acid
Appearance: White powder
Application: Can be used for acne essence, cleanser, shampoo, toner, essence, mask, body lotion.
As a professional pore-care agent, salicylic acid’s unique lipophilic nature allows it to penetrate deep into pores to dissolve excess sebum and dead skin cells. It is particularly effective in acne treatments, oil-control cleansers, and scalp care formulations. Its gentle exfoliating action helps unclog pores while inhibiting bacterial growth to prevent breakouts.
