Salicylic Acid Acne Serum with Glycolic Acid and LHA for Pores, Texture and Fine Lines - Effaclar
Salicylic Acid Acne Serum with Glycolic Acid and LHA for Pores, Texture and Fine Lines - Effaclar
A salicylic acid acne serum gives oily, blemish-prone skin a leave-on exfoliating step that addresses clogged pores and uneven texture together. Effaclar Serum uses a triple-acid complex of 1.5% salicylic acid, glycolic acid and lipo-hydroxy acid, also known as LHA. The blend targets microcomedones, helps refine the visible look of enlarged pores and smooths the appearance of fine lines.
Apply this serum at night after cleansing and before moisturizer, following the package directions. Acids can increase dryness and sun sensitivity, so begin gradually, avoid the eye area and use suitable daytime sunscreen. Do not combine several strong exfoliants in the same routine until skin tolerance is clear. The formula is positioned for acne-prone skin with aging concerns and has been evaluated over four weeks; individual visible results vary.
