Clear acne and unclog pores with PanOxyl Clarifying Exfoliant 2% Salicylic Acid. Skin can become dry and lackluster when dead skin cells build up on the surface. Salicylic Acid, a Beta Hydroxy Acid (BHA), helps to dissolve dead skin and minimize the production of certain skin oils. Regular exfoliation removes the oil buildup, leading to a smoother, clearer and breakout-free complexion. This gentle leave-on exfoliating treatment contains the highest concentration of Salicylic Acid available over the counter. The super lightweight, clear formula also includes Blue Algae and Antioxidants that help to calm irritation and redness, often associated with acne.
