Can I use this moisturizer if I have sensitive skin?

Yes, this moisturizer is specifically designed for sensitive skin. It is hypoallergenic and fragrance-free.

Does this product protect against sun damage?

No, this product does not contain SPF. It's important to use a broad-spectrum sunscreen during the day, as Salicylic Acid can increase sun sensitivity.

What should I do if I experience irritation?

If you experience irritation or redness, reduce the frequency of use or discontinue use and consult a dermatologist.

How long will it take to see results?

Results vary, but many users see improvements within a few weeks of consistent use. Continue usage as directed for optimal results.

Is this moisturizer suitable for all skin types?

While it is formulated for acne-prone and sensitive skin, users with extremely dry skin might need to supplement with an additional moisturizer.

Troubleshooting

Skin irritation or redness occurs after application.

Reduce the frequency of use to once a day or every other day. If irritation persists, discontinue use and consult a dermatologist.

Product is not absorbing well or leaving a film.

Ensure you are applying a thin layer. You may also need to adjust the order of application in your skincare routine. Wait a few minutes after cleansing before applying.

Breakouts seem to worsen initially.

This could be a sign of purging. Continue using the product as directed and the skin should improve in a few weeks. If symptoms worsen, consult your dermatologist.

Not seeing desired results after several weeks.

Ensure you are using the product consistently as directed. Consider consulting a dermatologist to evaluate your skincare routine.

Cons

  • Results may vary depending on individual skin types and conditions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To use, apply a thin layer to the face after cleansing. Avoid the eye area. This moisturizer is compatible with most skincare routines, but it's crucial to introduce it gradually, especially if you're new to Salicylic Acid. You can start by using it once a day and increasing to twice a day as tolerated.

Care Instructions: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Ensure the cap is tightly closed to maintain the product's effectiveness. Discontinue use if persistent irritation occurs. Always follow up with a broad-spectrum sunscreen during the day.
