Scopri questo ingrediente

Salicylic acid is an oil-soluble beta hydroxy acid, commonly known as a BHA. It can travel through surface oil and exfoliate inside the pores, where dead skin cells and sebum can accumulate.

This makes it especially effective for oily, congested and blemish-prone skin with blackheads or visible pores.

Perché TOTOKA lo seleziona

Unlike water-soluble exfoliating acids that primarily work on the skin’s surface, salicylic acid can reach inside oil-filled pores.

It offers a focused solution for congestion, blackheads and excess sebum while helping the skin appear smoother and clearer over time.

INGREDIENT SNAPSHOT

What it brings to your skin

The essential information, without the ingredient overload.

Salicylic acid loosens the bonds between dead skin cells and helps clear the mixture of oil and debris that can block pores. Its exfoliating action improves the appearance of blackheads, blemishes and uneven texture.

By keeping pores clearer, it can also make enlarged pores appear less noticeable.
