@dr.farzan: A salicylic acid cleanser helps clear clogged pores, blackheads, whiteheads, and excess oil by exfoliating inside the pores and dissolving buildup. With consistent use, it can improve acne and skin texture, but it's less effective for deep acne scars or severe cystic acne. How to use a salicylic acid cleanser: 1. Wet your face with lukewarm water. 2. Apply a small amount of the cleanser to your skin. 3. Gently massage it over your face for about 30-60 seconds so the salicylic acid can work inside the pores. 4. Rinse thoroughly with water. 5. Follow with a moisturizer to prevent dryness. Caution: Salicylic acid cleansers can sometimes cause dryness, irritation, or peeling, especially if used too often. Start slowly and avoid using them together with strong exfoliants or retinoids in the same routine if your skin is sensitive. If irritation occurs, reduce the frequency of use and always follow with a moisturizer and sunscreen. #blackheads #whitehead #texturedskin #congestedskin #salicylicacid @CeraVe
