Where does it come from?
Salicylic acid is derived from salicin, a compound found in the bark of willow trees (Salix species) and other plants. The acid is refined and purified to ensure its efficacy and safety in skincare formulations.
Exfoliating: It can penetrate deep into the pores to exfoliate dead skin cells, minimizing clogged pores and promoting a clearer complexion.
Purifying:Can clear pores by dissolving excess sebum oil production and debris.
