What 2% salicylic acid does

It cleans inside the pore, not just the surface

Salicylic acid dissolves in oil, so it gets into pores where breakouts start. It loosens the oil and dead skin that clog them, and calms redness while it works. 2% is the highest strength sold over the counter for acne.

How to use it

Sixty seconds, morning and night

A pea-sized amount is enough. That's why one tube lasts about three months.

1Wet your face with warm water

Warm, not hot. Hot water dries skin out.

2Work a pea-sized amount into a lather

Massage it in for 30 to 60 seconds, beard included.

3Rinse and moisturize

Follow with step 2 of the routine below.

What to expect: skin feels cleaner and less oily from the first wash. Fewer breakouts take a few weeks of washing twice a day.

Why $12

About $4 a month, without the harsh stuff

A pea-sized amount twice a day makes the 60 ml tube last about three months. Drugstore acne washes can cost less, but many rely on benzoyl peroxide, which can dry skin and bleach towels.

Questions

Before you order

How long does one tube last?

The 60 ml tube lasts about three months with a pea-sized amount twice a day. The 20 ml trial is a smaller tube for trying it first.

Can I use it on my beard?

Yes. Work it through the beard to the skin underneath, where breakouts start.

Will it dry out my skin?

It's made without benzoyl peroxide and sulfates, the usual causes of tightness. Follow with a moisturizer.

Can I skip or cancel a subscription?

Yes, any time. Deliveries come every 3 months to match the 60 ml tube.
