Salicylic acid is present in many cosmetic products. Intended for the face and body, it comes in various forms such as lotions, serums, night creams, cleansers, masks, and even toners. In hair care, it can be found in certain shampoos, masks, and lotions. It is even present in some makeup products like foundation powders, to which it provides a purifying and radiance-enhancing action.
According to the regulation (EC) No 1223/2009 pertaining to cosmetic products, its incorporation rate should not exceed 2% in a facial care product.
Typology has developed two salicylic acid treatments, to be used either as a treatment course or during one's beauty routine.
This serum contains 2% salicylic acid and 1% zinc, providing a comprehensive purifying and anti-bacterial effect. It is applied in the evening, in small amounts, only to the affected areas. A single drop of salicylic acid is sufficient for each individual pimple. Initial results can be observed after three days.
This toner, concentrated with antibacterial agents, effectively combats blemishes and imperfections. It should be applied to the entire face, previously cleansed, avoiding the eye contour, preferably in the evening, before the daily serum or night cream.It helps to limit the growth of bacteria and refines the skin's texture.
