Description
If breakouts, blackheads, or oily skin are frustrating you, this serum is made for you.
This lightweight BHA serum works deep inside your pores to dissolve excess oil and impurities that cause congestion, helping keep skin clear and balanced without harshness.
With regular use, skin looks clearer, feels smoother, and stays calmer.
How it helps
• Clears clogged pores
• Reduces breakouts & blemishes
• Controls excess oil & shine
• Calms redness & inflammation
• Smooths skin texture
Why it works
Formulated with 2% Salicylic Acid (BHA) derived from willow bark to exfoliate inside pores and remove built-up debris.
Soothing botanical extracts help calm irritation and reduce redness, making it effective yet gentle.
Clearer, smoother, more balanced skin, without harshness.
How to use
How to Use:
Apply in the morning and evening (AM and PM).
For visible improvement, apply a small amount directly to spots.
Avoid the eye area and contact with your eyes.
It's a good idea to do a patch test before using the product.
Keep it out of the reach of children.
Sun Protection Advisory:
This product contains a beta-hydroxy acid (BHA), which can make your skin more sensitive to the sun, increasing the risk of sunburn.
Use sunscreen, wear protective clothing, and limit sun exposure while using this product and for one week after.

A: Salicylic Acid is like a gentle skin superhero. It exfoliates, reveals fresh skin, and fights pore blockages. Perfect for bumpy or acne-prone skin.

This serum makes your skin nice and smooth and does not cause any irritation at all. (I have very sensitive skin). Ive been using this 3 times a week for months now and have noticed my skin is 10 times smoother and softer. I would recommend this to literally anyone no matter how broken their skin is as its meant for acne. I will be buying more!

As the title says! I actually use this as a spot treatment, and my pimple significantly reduces after using it 1-2 nights. It has no fragrance or essential oils, which I am sensitive to, so that's even better.

Tanita 5/5 Verified
It works, love how the pimple diffuses the next morning, only thing I found is it gives quiet a pigmentation on my skin. Not sure if it’s normal or its just my skin. I would recommend it to others. As It seemed to work for me.
Lnoel 4/5 Verified
This is amazing!! have been using this serum for 6 weeks and my skin is clearing up so well! No new breakouts either.
Nadia L. 5/5 Verified
Nearly used a whole bottle and not sure it's doing as much as I had hoped. My skin texture is really smooth but still getting the same amount of acne as before. Will continue to use second bottle to see if there are results after longer use.
