Salicylic acid is widely used in skincare products for acne-prone and oily skin. It works by helping remove excess oil, dirt, and dead skin cells from clogged pores, which may help reduce pimples, acne, and blackheads.
However, excessive use may lead to dryness, redness, peeling, irritation, or burning sensation. Some individuals may also have sensitivity or allergic reactions to salicylic acid.
Always use skincare products according to your skin type and consult a qualified dermatologist before starting active ingredients, especially if you have sensitive skin or persistent acne issues.
