PURE ORIGINAL INGREDIENTS Salicylic Acid 5% Solution (30 mL) by Organic Gentle Exfoliating Peel/Mask for Smoother & Clearer Skin, Treats Blackheads, Acne & Clogged Pores

I don’t buy those OTC acne/pimple creams with 2% salicylic acid anymore! This is my go-to for all of my facial issues. Also gets rid of lines, dark spots and whiteheads. Very strong so use sparingly and if starting out- apply only to spots - then use a moisturizer. Each face has its own sensitivity so monitor yours. This brand is high quality and affordable compared to others. Have purchased multiple times over the years. Product works!

Genuine product

GENERAL: I've repurchased this countless times over the years. This is a no-frills, thin/lightweight formula (see my video) to use salicylic acid at a higher % than available in most stores, not from an overpriced brand, and still not too strong - 'goldilocks zone' of acid %, in my opinion. Salicylic acid penetrates pores deeper than other alpha hydroxy acids, to breakdown skin cells and sebum, which is why it's so highly recommended for acne prone skin. I recommend not using it more than once per day consistently, however, as that could be irritating. Keep it off of your sensitive/dryer skin areas, like around your eyes TROUBLESHOOTING: If you notice a breakout of small pustules, you're using it too much, especially if you use any other acids/exfoliants, physical (like a buff puff) or chemical (like glycolic acid or a retinol). This doesn't mean it's no good for you, just that you may need to use it less frequently/in a lower concentration, and alternate days with it. I use a moisturizer on delicate/dry areas first, then apply the acid last, so the lotion acts as a barrier to the acid in addition to not applying it to those areas. If also using Benzoyl Peroxide - that could be harsh, so look for a 2.5% formula to prevent drying/irritation. UNDER MAKEUP: I've used it under both silicone and water-based makeup, and both work well without causing pilling or any other texture issues. PACKAGING: Very nice glass bottle and dropper that I've never experienced leakage with, even during travel. That said, I do put it in a ziplock snack size bag just in case!

A bit oily but after applying on the face it get absorbed easly

It is the best product for my skin that I have ever used. It has reduced my pores on my nose and removed all traces of blackheads. Oh I wish I had found it 70 years ago when I was 14. Yes I am 84 and thrilled to see a much better complexion. I am sorry I did not take a before and after picture to show the incredible improvement.
