People need to keep in mind that when you start a skin routine, you need to give it 6 weeks. Your skin will look worse(purge) before it looks better. It's not a fast process but you gotta stick with it and be patient. Alot of people give up after 2 weeks because their skin breaks out but you gotta push past it.
Thank you so much!!! I actually gonna give up of using salicylic acid cuz I experience purging right now so yeah, but thanks god I saw ur comment... thanks!!!
Thx I just started using niacinamide twice last week due to me having bad hyperpigmentation + line marks and uneven skintone and started to experience few break out and using salicylic this week. Im starting slow just to avoid further break out
It depends, I don't believe in skin purging unless it is a skin care given as a prescription by a dermatologist and they already mention purging as a side effect. Especially if the purging is not in a form of acne or white/blackheads. I would prefer to stop using the product.
@@AnnaBrown99this was my experience with Tretinoin when prescribed it and started using it. I was warned it would cause acne under the skin to surface, but that after 4 weeks the acne would start to calm down which it did. But I agree if it red and irritated and lots of peeling you don’t push thru that.
And of course don't be shy with the moisturizer ❤❤
Benzoyl peroxide has actually cleared my cystic acne and prevents bacteria from forming. Salicylic acid isn’t as effective but it works best for me in toners or chemical treatments. I would suggest incorporating both if you have acne but you will also need a good moisturizer and hydrating serum 😊
Benzoyl peroxide is more effective for worse acne salicylic good for little acne
@@Sorvek-y8f I feel like salicylic acid works best for textural irregularities (at least from my experience it along with niacinamide Helps with enlarged pores too),rough bumpy skin and congested pores, while benzoyl peroxide works to kill the active acne itself as well as the acne causing bacterial especially cysts
@@grammar8561which brand wash and cream do you use?
@@Sorvek-y8ftrue. SA is counter for whiteheads
Benzoyl Peroxide is my enemy. It is too harsh on my skin and it has to be used while naked because it bleaches clothing.
I'm using Paula's choice salicylic acid exfoliant for 7 months... It's a holy grail product for my acne treatment & hyperpigmentation. Just love the ingredient 💖
Yes we do too!! 🤍🤍
Which products you got sylicylic acid
Hi can l use it? I have got acne marks and comedones on my forehead. And some acnes on my hairline
@@saida07iof course, make it sure it's at night before sleeping in like an hour so your skin can suck it, and make sure to moisturize with something that has hyaluronic acid.
Couple Salicylic Acid with Benzoyl Peroxide, and you have a winner!! Combining these together has cleared my acne completely. I use Salicylic Acid soap in the morning, and Benzoyl Peroxide paste at night. Now I only get ONE pimple every once in awhile, and it goes away far more quickly. This combo has kept new acne from coming in. I also use Frankincense and myrrh soap (at night with the benzoyl peroxide), and aloe vera moisturizer twice a day, and it's been a game changer. After my acne cleared, I was left with very noticeable acne scarring, but the frankincense/myrrh soap and aloe vera moisturizer are slowly but surely fading away the scars! Using cold water only has made it even better in reducing the inflammation and redness in my face. It's all a slow process, but it's well worth it!
No sunscreen ?
This is my third week on benzoyl peroxide (i use gel at night ) i clean twice a day with cerave foaming gel and apply spf50 sunscreen that contains moisturizer , first week i saw improvment little " then the second and third week i got cysts under the skin on my cheeks ,jaw and near my ear ( i rarely get pimples near my ears ) and now im seeing improvements again and the cysts are going away slowly , i also have really bad scarring over lile 7 years now i realised i have to act fr . Im just not sure how much time i should give to this routine before i take accutane because i dont wanna waste time at all .
@@flyxus8409how is it going
Yeah but about a quarter of the population are mildly allergic to benzac in my case it was so bad it actually chemically burnt my face.
I swear salicylic acid is magic for my skin 😍
I use a SA cleanser everyday. Then 2% SA solution every week. And also 7% glycolic acid toner every week. Don’t over exfoliate because it will damage your skin barrier and makes you super sensitive. I also use Vitamin C to lighten hyperpigmentation from acne scars. Its working great.
How often u use vitamin c?
Salicylic acid is good but it doesn’t prevent new acne from forming. For oily skin, keep your routine simple, respect your skin and don’t be over aggressive with it.
If you can handle the side effects, use Tretinoin and a moisturiser as a buffer like Cerave. And that’s it. Personally, I couldn’t handle the tension headaches from tret, so I’m now using Azelaic acid, which is doing okay. I believe eating lots of fruit and veg and keeping hydrated helps your skin from
within. Don’t just rely on products, they’re just part of a bigger picture.
Is it better than tretinoin
@@abrahamlunchtime5421no. Salicylic acid isn't effective, especiallyfor more severe cases of acne & hyperpigmentation & acne scarring. Trentotin is usually considered to be the better treatment in this case.
I am using salicylic acid in cleanser and serum it has reduced my acne and white heads
Salicylic acid is the holy grail ingredient especially for oily skin
After applying salicylic acid serum when to fash my face
What about niacinamide?
Salicylic acid is really best for oily skin and acne prone skin, tried and tested
Absolutely!
Do it really work or it causes more pimple
Can you suggest any serum or facewash or soap that helped you with salicylic acid
@@saipavan3915 If its me, I use Skintific salicylic acid cleanser. It's effective yet gentle and doesn't burn or itch my skin.
@@nehahanotia5984 At first it might because it will PURGE your skin. But you gotta do it gradually and keep using it. After awhile, your skin will settle. Just don't over use it and always use a gentle one.
I use salicylic soap wash to treat my seborheic dermatitis. Something I can’t live without
Love that for you!
Which brand do you use?
I have been using salicyclic acid for 3 months now, but whenever I use it my acne just gets worse and I get what they call "closed comedones" all over my face. I have researched and I don't think its purging.
I'm experiencing it too
If Salicylic Acid is damaging your skin then the problem is under your skin, you should try only Benzoyl Peroxide at first, it kills all the bacteria that cause acnes at first place
Me too
Salicylic Acid also helps to clear the skin condition called Seborrheic dermatitis very well! I know, I use it!
I feel like Salicylic Acid is too weak for my skin. I did see some improvements when I first used Salicylic Acid the problem is that it eventually became less effective and didn't help prevent acne anymore. Also, almost all Salicylic Acid treatments only contain it in 2% concentration, and we need more products with higher concentration of it.
This DOES work for me, but I have thick Seborrheic dermatitis on my face with underlying Rosacea, so my face is pretty sensitive! I'm also a little older than most RUclipsrs on here.
You should try benzoyl peroxide, it kills all the bacteria under the skin which prevents acnes at first place , Salicylic Acid is not a permanent treatment it just clean your skin and doesn't treat it
@@Jasmine215100my wife have chronic Roscacea for 15 years, had a good skin care routine but the roscacea just wouldn’t go away. She was on tetracycline a few times a year, and cortisone creams when it was very bad.
I researched and found an Ivermectin cream called Soolantra - within 2 weeks it was gone.
Maybe give that a go
The ONLY thing that ever cleared up my adult acne (I'm 57) is switching to keto, face and back cleared up within a couple weeks (I was also taking it easy on cheese which also breaks me out).
I used salicylic to peel for clients with a concentration of 20%. One strange thing is that when I let a client use a fan, one side of the client's cheek has hoarfrost, while the other side is still rosy. When hoarfrost appears, the layer of peel still has no feeling and is still covered with hoarfrost
It actually took me a few months after using BHA continually to get used to it, I was having redness and feeling irritated so badly initially, but eventually my skin now is recovering so well!!
do i need to keep using salicylic acid? my face has just become itchy, will it be okay after this ?😢
Your skin started peeling?
@@iskandar4363 I think you should let your skin get used to it gradually. From the very first start and even until now, I realized that my skin can only handle BHA no more than 3 times a week
@@saniakhan5128 no it didn't actually, just the feeling of mild irritation
@@iskandar4363You don't need to KEEP using it. Once your skin gets better, you can stop it and only use it once or twice a week because you have to exfoliate your skin at least once a week.
I have had the most horrible embarassing scalp acne. Hard pastures that I can't pop and become swollen sore and I pick the skin off. Despite years and years of buying all kinds of shampoos including with salicylic acid they never helped. I got betamine shampoo which helped the itching and pain. I tried an antiseptic cream no luck. I tried tooth paste and was funnily able to pop the damn pimples. But back in no time. Now I got a young solutions spot treatment and I think it will solve the problem. I obviously had plugged dead skin cells😪
Experiencing purging right now
Currently using Dr Sensitive Niacinamide + Salicylic Acid and it works amazing for my skin. Though I have to always avoid or at least have low exposure from the sun even with sunscreen due to the AHA ingredient. It says in the box that it may increase sun sensitivity.
What should i use for bumps i have oily skin? Can you suggest me some good products?
I have had acne prone skin since I was a teen. Recently, I have been using the Burt's Bee's Salicylic Acid cleanser as the only thing I put on my face and it has been clearing my acne and oily prone skin and making my skin brighter, softer, and smoother without having to use any other products with it.
I use the my ingredients salicylic acid serum. How often should i use this product
2 x weekly xx
Personally i used salicylic acid face wash and it was tremendous results i amazed ,even my friends shocked how u reduced that much and i was glowing too. Cuz i also used glycolic acid but when i got satisfied and discontinued as my skin is very sensitive and didn't cared so pimples cam again and scar also. Although these chemicals are very expensive too so I can't use it for long
Have you heard of putting salicylic acid on hair 1-2x a week? It’s promising
How many days it took to get acne free skin ???
@@VikasBhardwaj07 3 weeks if you have several breakout but if you have acne use benzyl peroxide
What SA cleanser did u use ?
A good SA cleanser without other skin irritating ingredients can be left in skin for sometime before washing it off. I keep it on for about 5 mins...same as my BPO cleanser.
I am using salicylic acid form 5 days .... Its 1st reduce my pimples...then increase some tiny bump
Yes you most likely are experiencing skin purging which can last 4-6 weeks. Completely normal and the product is doing it’s job! Your skin will clear up
Update now? I am using Salicylic acid three times a week (micropeeling of rilastil) and i'm getting more pimples on my forehead... i just had some pimples underskin but now they're more evident and a little more.. Today is 11 day im using it(Combined with the cleanser and anti-blemish cream always of the same line) is this skin purging? You had it too?
I am using salicylic acid and made more harm for my skin than my previous routine (clean, exfoliation and hidratation). I don't know what i'am doing wrong
You should use sunscreen first and stay away from sun
you must switch to LACTIC ACID SERUM as it is a gentle exfoliant
@@riyapathak6453can i use both ? Since i have salicylic acid and lactic acid
Same happened with me
Please suggest some serum or acid for after acne and pimple marks ? And forehead tiny painful pimples😢
Is good for milia and closed comedones? Im using salycilic acid and differin
Or i should use glycolic acid instead of salycilic
Thanks
Salicylic acid will be the best for milia and comedones. Just use separately to differin
Salicylic acid cleansers worked for me so well during my teenage years. I never had a single issue or any breakouts I guess I got lucky I found my product but it got discontinued. After that I struggled to find a product that works best then university life added so much stress to me that I started having hormonal acne now at 25 I’m getting my first acne breakouts, I’m graduating next year and I’m so stressed that salicylic acid doesn’t work as much anymore. I did add benzoyl peroxide cleanser to my routine (PM) so hopefully I see results soon 🤞🏼
Remember to be gentle on your skin without using a strong one. Too much exfoliating things can inflame your skin.
I hope you use it gradually and slowly and don't stop until it gets better. Don't forget to moisturised!
Very resourceful, you're amazing. Thank you.
You're so welcome :)
Yeah it's actually good for my skin ❤
Will clean And clear product tat have salicylic acid work on my face
❤ Thank you
I use Niacinimade 10% zinc 1%
And salicylic acid daily gentle cleanser
I have acne and dark spot also pores
Will this help me or i need a lot of things
❤️
That's great, do you use any liquid exfoliant or just a cleanser with salicylic acid in it? You can incorporate a retinoid into your routine too to help regulate your skin
@@SkinZoneTV no, just a cleanser
heyy hii. i am using 2% salicylic cleanser on my oily face. can i use 2% salicylic serum after using that cleanser at night
Also I use vitimin c moisturizer am and pm
yes but you don't need to use salicylic acid serum every day, 2 x a week will be plenty in the evening. Since you are already using a cleanser with SA in it
@@SkinZoneTV i have pimples(which are red and whiteheads also) more on jawline and side beard areas. Can I still use this or any other solution
Please please please suggest something for bumpy skin and patchy skin ...please I'm 29 years and I look aged...
I have oily skin and acne prone skin I used Niacinamide ordinary serum and I got more acne from today I have added salicylic acid in my routine how can I use Niacinamide and salicylic acid in my routine
What works best for fungal acne salicylic acid or niacinamide?
can i use salisilic acid as my skin care?
Can we use the ordinary SA everyday ? I'm only 18 and this my first time trying anything with Sa
It depends on your skin type and concerns as well as the product and what else you are using in your routine.Those who are experiencing acne can use it more often, if you just experiencing mild blackheads etc you can use it 2-3 x weekly. Start off 2-3 x weekly, and see how your skin is.
After using Neutrogena 0.5 salicylic acid moisture for one month i am having acne breakout from last two weaks. It is from this product? Should i use or discontinou?

Does it work on acne scars
Hardly anyone tells us how long these products take to see results.
It depends on the product you have chosen as quality and formulation make a big difference. Generally you’ll start to see a result with salicylic acid 4-6 weeks but again it depends on a number of factors - the state of your skin, what you are using in your routine with it etc x
It is okay to use salicylic acid and hyaluronic acid together ?
Should i use salicylic acid facewash 3-4 days a week at night for dry skin for acne and pimple??

@@debalinabanikchowdhury5108 Hey lovely, sounds like you may be experiencing skin purging which is completely normal when you start using active ingredients like salicylic acid on your skin. This is a good thing and removing build up, it should clear. If it doesn't clear after 3 months I would stop use. Can you let us know what product you are using and how many times per week do you apply the product?
@@SkinZoneTV mam can i use it and how many time i should I use
@@bsvss.manikanta4246 You can use it 1-2 x per week
I need help, idk if i continue. But everytime i apply, it grows many acne and all of them are tiny yellowish in a small area. Idk what to do.
There is 3 % salicylic acid in some shampoos that are for psoriasis of the scalp.
I just started using cerave blemish control cleanser. My skin type is oily acne prone. Can i use it every night or is it better only 2x a week (monday and friday)?
Cleansers should be used daily but if you find it too drying switch to a different cleanser
how long would it take to start seeing some results?
Hey! depends on the product you are using. You may also experience skin purging (breakouts) for 4-6 weeks if you have congestion underneath your skin which is normal.
With consistent use once to twice weekly - you will start to see an improvement. It will also come down to other skincare products you are using in your routine
Hey.. if i use salicylic acid serum at night, then it is mandatory to use sunscreen? or moisturizer is enough for it..?
[At night ]
Sunscreen only during the day :) night time it is not required x
Hi, Mam can i use Vitamin C face serum after Salicylic acid face cleanser?
Yes because you wash off the cleanser
@@SkinZoneTV thank you mam 😀
Salicylic acid did nothing for my level 3-4 cystic acne. It only make my skin drier & flakier. Gycolic acid was more effective, but only to a certain extent. The only thing that helped me was a round of accutane (8 months) & using perscription topical retonal cream for superficial scarring.
I think Accutane is probably the most effective medication for most types of Acne and/or oily skin. I wish they had this when I was in middle school in the 1960s!
very useful information thank you

May you give me from your experience the information and lead me by giving your preferred products and routine to cure acne and skin oil?and should I go to a doctor or what?
I bought salicylic acid from the pharmacy just for 5 euros and it works amazing under any moisturizer, you don't have to pay 150$ for such products that have it, of course, those products might contain good moisturizer and vitamins as well, but you don't have to go so expensive to get it.
How to use salicylic acid?i have cystic acne in my chin and forehead area. What other skincare to use
I’m not an expert, but from experience I’d suggest brands like clean&clear, Garnier and Cera Ve. Hope this helps 🤗
I have oily skin i use dr sheath salicylic acid face wash
Hi! Is a serum that contain niacinamide + salicylic acid 5% effective? I wanna know and how many times a week shoild i use it? Night or day time? Can i purge when using it? Thank you!
Combination of salicyalic acid n niacinamide works like a magic. I used both the serums from the brand called minimalist. It really cleared my acne n blackheads.
Can we use salicylic acid 2% face wash on daily based day and night
It might be a bit much depending on your skin and what you use in your routine? What do you use currently?
I used salicylic acid tomorrow and I got a Whitehead today is it normal
hello i am using salicylic acid 2%, and my skin starts to dry is it okay if I peel it or should i wait how many days until i am able to peel it?
Hey, Do not peel your skin! It Sounds like your skin needs moisture. Are you moisturising? And how often are you exfoliating? Max 2x per week is plenty.
Hey! Even I started using it my flaks are developing and it is getting peeled is that okay....how many days did it take to get normal completely??
Can i use derma co 1% salicylic acid face wash
Yes
Is this acid ok for dry skin with sun damaged scaly little areas ?
Ik this late but it will dry you out worse if you don't moisturize after using (i like vaseline because it doesn't clog pours) but as long as you do that SA is amazing
I use salcylic acid 2 to 3 times per day bcoz of excessive oil on face...is it too much to use??if yes then what to use to control the face oil and also for fresh glowing face
That is why too often and will be stripping your skin’s barrier leaving you with oily skin trying to compensate.
Cut salicylic acid out completely for a month, go back to basics only - cleanser and moisturiser.
Exfoliation should be 2 x per week at the most depending on your skin
is it fine to take sotret ( a vitamin A tablet) everyday once and use salicylic acid cleanser twice a day ?
since its mentioned it could neutrilise the effect.
Yes a vitamin is fine. In this video we talk about not using retinol/vitamin a in serum form on your face with salicylic acid.
Does salicylic acid serum cause white patches on darker skin tone
Hi I used the salicylic acid, 2 days in I stated having more acne worst than it was should I keep using ?
It’s probably a purge. The purging is that hardest thing to go through because it lasts 4-6 weeks. Just make sure you don’t use it more than 3x per week when starting off.
I have normal to dry skin type can i use the ordinary salicylic acid 2%?
Yes you can but generally for dry skin lactic acid or glycolic acid is recommended. Or a serum that contains a mix between aha’s and bha’s
Does it help with pitted acne scars?? I need to know 😭
you can check out this video about acne scarring ruclips.net/video/70vnGspBGvY/видео.html

Can i use 2%salicylic acid one and use 10% niacinamide on alternate days
Can anyone tell me that how to do patch test for moisturizer for my combination skin?

A toner is optional, if you wish to use a toner use a gentle one without any aha’s or bha’s in it x
Hi
First of all thank you for the wonderful vid.
I have been using Neutrogena salicylic acid cleaner for almost 2 years and i think i am going to be fine with only that source of salicylic acid in my routine. My current routine is:
Am:
Salicylic acid cleaner
Hyaluronic acid from the ordinary
Moisturizer
Spf if i get out of the house
Pm:
Salicylic acid cleaner
Lactic acid from the ordinary
Niacinamide
Moisturizer
I have a dry and sensitive skin, however i get pimples (but mostly on my cheeks, rarely in T-Zone)
My question is now, are there any other ingredients that you would add to this routine or is there anything that you would remove/correct in this routine? Should i consider having retinol in my routine? I wasn't sure if i should have retinol in my routine because of my dry sensitive skin
Thank you in advance for the time and effort
I also use neutrogena and i got rid of many little bumps but at the same time so many big pimples on my cheeks comes out
@@againstboredom1047 hey I have just started using neutrogena spot controlling facewash with salicylic acid but I got little bumps or acne on my face how to know if it's purging or I am breaking out
Glycolic acid peel once à week
Can salicylic acid be combined with nacinamide?
If it's serums we recommend to use them seperately.
It depends on the brand formulation. Some brands say you can layer with niacinamide, and some brands say you shouldn't and too use it seperately.
What is your routine? and what brands do you use? xx
I am 16 years old can I use salicylic acid face serum 2%
Just started using neutrogena oil free face wash 2x a day with 2% Salicylic acid if I’m correct. With a neutrogena moisturizer my skin is soft but still bumpy of course it’s gonna be though cause it’s only been 2days. But I was just wondering how long will it take for my skin to get smoother?. Sorry for wasting anybodys time.
You are not wasting anyone's time, we love your questions and are here to help :)
You won't notice the best results unfortunately with a cleanser with 2% salicylic acid, as cleanser's are not on the skin long enough to penetrate as deep into the skin.
You are better off with BHA liquid exfoliant which you leave on the skin. You may experience skin purging and that's when your skin breakouts more than usual due to using active ingredients on the skin. This is a good thing as the product is doing it's job and can last 4-6 weeks.
You will start to notice results between 6-12 weeks. However you will need to look at also adding different ingredients. Salicylic acid is the best exfoliating ingredient for Acne, beside retinol.
I highly recommend you to watch these 2 videos on Acne Skincare Routines. They are both very affordable brands and will give you much better results than Neutrogena.

@@SkinZoneTV thank you!❤️
I’ve been using the pink grapefruit version for the last 5 weeks and it’s completely lifted all of my congestion and blackheads out of my pores. I leave it on the skin for 3-5 minutes and then follow up with a moisturiser of course and that’s all I use.
It has blasted all of my congestion/blackheads and has made my skin smooth with no texture and less acne.
Skinzone is completely wrong in saying that these cleansers are not effective and don’t “penetrate” the skin because they’re not on the skin long enough that’s false.
@@williamk7035 Hi William, sounds great you are having great results with your pink grapefruit exfoliant. You are leaving it on for 3-5minutes which is perfect.
Salicylic acid penetrates deeper into the epidermis as it is oil soluble to work from the inside out but it needs to be on the skin long enough to actually do anything.
Cleansers are to balance the skin's PH, remove excess oil, dirt and sweat from the day.
When you cleanse you are only leaving the product on the skin for 30seconds at the most, unless you are leaving it on for 2-3minutes - which the common person does not.
Compared to a stay on liquid exfoliant, the results from using a cleanser that contains salicylic acid will not be as effective and that is why we recommend a liquid exfoliant that contains salicylic acid over a cleanser.
@@SkinZoneTV I agree that a leave on will provide quicker results but are you saying the BHA in a cleanser isn't effective? Show me.
I got side effects in my face like black wrinkles by using salicylic acid 😪
