    Expert Advice

    Expert Advice

    “Acne cleansers can dry out the skin by stripping its barrier while clearing blemishes. Since they only briefly contact the skin, they often fail to deposit Salicylic Acid effectively. However, the paste texture of Acne-Treating Cleansing Paste, enriched with hydrating Glycerin and soothing Centella, adheres well to the skin, allowing salicylic acid to penetrate the pores, enhancing treatment efficacy while minimizing irritation.”
