Salicylic 2
2% salicylic acid liquid for congested skin
Load 3 of 5 · Measured
Up to 3 nights a week
Two to four nights a week for most people, built up from one. Leave an unloaded night on either side while you are finding your pace.
A week has a budget of 12. At 3 a use, this is 4 uses a week if you run nothing else loaded. How the scale works.

Salicylic acid at 2% in a low-alcohol aqueous base with betaine and zinc PCA. Because it is oil-soluble it works inside the pore rather than only on the surface, which is why it suits congested and blackhead-prone skin better than an AHA does.
Load 3. It can be used on the areas that need it rather than the whole face, and a targeted application on the nose and chin is a fair way to spend less of the week on it.
