No, apply this on before you wash your hair (either on wet or dry scalp), leave on for 10 minutes, and then wash off and wash hair afterwards. The ingredient is also known to have anti-inflammatory and antibacterial benefits, making it a great all-rounder for skin that’s reactive. Because of this set of benefits, Salicylic Acid is excellent at targeting acne. How to use Salicylic Acid CAN I VITAMIN C AFTER USING SALICYLIC ACID CLEANSER IN MY MORNING SKINCARE ROUTINE?Yes! You can layer your usual AM skincare routine, including Vitamin C, after washing your face with Salicylic Acid Cleanser. We always recommending using a broad spectrum SPFdaily but when paired withVitamin Cthis boosts yourmorning skincare routineto get all the benefits of protection from sun damage and free radicals.AT WHICH POINT IN THE ROUTINE DO I USE BHA SERUM?This BHA Serum is part of the ‘Treat’ step and would be applied after Because of this, your humble salicylic acid exfoliant might actually be your new best friend if you’re looking for an oil and blemish-busting formula. We recommend that it’s best to alternate versus using both at the same time. In addition, it’s always important to consider the percentage of the acid and doing a patch test first before fully committing to a new product to avoid any potential irritations or sensitivities. You can learn more about how to do a patch test and why they are important in our blog here . WHAT'S THE % OF SALICYLIC ACID IN BHA SERUM?BHA Serum contains 2% Salicylic Acid which helps to unclog pores and gently exfoliate the skin. You've probably heard of salicylic acid already, as it's a popular choice for anyone struggling with breakouts and can be found in plenty of skincare products. Here’s a breakdown of exactly what it does:

The first time I tried it, I used it as a spot treatment and my pimples took forever to disappear. So, I found myself using it multiple times in between my routines. Eventually I had to use it all over my face hoping to wake up the next day with less pimples. If you have troublesome, persistent acne or irritated spots, we recommend trying our Acne Solution with 5% Benzoyl Peroxide. Although AHAs and BHAs are similar in that they both work to exfoliate via active ingredients, it’s worth noting the differences. AHAs are water-soluble so tend to work on the surface of the skin, whereas BHA is oil-soluble, meaning it can get deeper into the skin to dissolve dead skin cells. Known for its exfoliating properties, Salicylic Acid helps to slough off dead skin cells, reduce oil levels and remove impurities from the surface of the scalp. The addition of FLUIDIPURE™ 8G and PANTHENOL delivers extra hydration and moisturization benefits to help soothe and calm while visibly reducing the appearance of redness on the scalp. ​ So, if you’re a BHA newbie, or struggle with sensitivity, it’s best to start off around the 2% mark, which is enough for you to see a difference without leaving skin irritated. If your skin is more resilient and you want the stronger stuff, you can find formulas with up to 10% BHA, but we'd recommend building up to this slowly. Don't say we didn't warn you.Each product in The Inkey List family is based around a single ingredient, making it easier to ascertain exactly what you’re putting on your skin. Gentle enough for daily use, the non-drying, exfoliating gel cleanser helps to unclog pores and remove dirt, impurities, and excess oil leaving skin feeling deeply clean and clarified. ​
