Salicylic Acid is naturally derived from the bark of the willow tree.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nThe bark of the Willow Tree naturally contains Salicylic Acid. Salicylic acid is a beta-hydroxy acid. Its chemical structure is similar to that of aspirin.<\/p>\n
Salicylic acid<\/strong> works very well for acne. It is much safer than benzoyl peroxide<\/em> when used for long periods of time as it will not damage or irritate the skin.<\/p>\nSalicylic acid fights pimples (including whiteheads and blackheads). It also reduces the skin’s oil production and renews the skin by promoting the shedding of dead skin cells.

Salicylic Acid<\/h3>\n
Salicylic Acid<\/strong> has been used for ages to reduce acne. Salicylic acid helps the skin get rid of dead skin cells (as in a mild scrub). The result is that fewer skin pores are clogging up.<\/p>\nSalicylic acid penetrates deep into the skin pores. It clears out oils that have built up around the hair follicles. This will help to reduce the number of bacteria that like to grow in this mixture of dead skin cells and oil, further blocking the formation of acne.<\/p>\n
Salicylic acid is much better than scrubs and peelings, because it doesn’t irritate or damage skin. Salicylic acid is a unique ingredient, as it is able to both exfoliate the surface of the skin AND remove dead skin cells and oils from within skin pores.<\/p>\n
Salicylic acid also regulates how fast skin cells are being shed from the surface of the skin. Cells around the hair follicles tend to multiply quickly. Mixed with too much oil, dirt and bacteria, this results in inflamed and enlarged skin pores.<\/p>\n
Salicylic acid<\/strong> not only clears out clogged pores, but also reduces the size of those pores.<\/p>\nCucumber Extract<\/h3>\n
