Ingredients and why they matter
- Active Ingredient: 0.5% Salicylic Acid — a beta-hydroxy acid that helps exfoliate the skin surface and unclog pores, supporting clearer skin.
- Butylene Glycol — acts as a humectant and solvent to maintain moisture without heaviness.
- Hydroxyphenyl Propamidobenzoic Acid — helps soothe the skin and supports a gentle feel after use.
- Isoceteth-20 and PEG-8/SMDI Copolymer — help deliver active ingredients and stabilize the formula.
- Pentylene Glycol — humectant that helps retain moisture on the skin’s surface.
- SD Alcohol 40B — lightweight solvent that helps the pad dry quickly after application.
- Triethanolamine and Trisodium EDTA — pH adjusters and chelating agents to maintain product stability.
- Non-medicinal ingredients support texture and usability: aqua (water), and other components chosen for gentle daily use.
