How to use salicylic acid in your skincare routine
If you have problems with oily or acne, then salicylic acid is your go-to ingredient right next to benzoyl peroxide. As a beginner who hasn't used salicylic acid before, you should start slowly with the lowest concentration of salicylic acid because it can be irritating to the skin. The lowest concentration ranges in products on the market range from 0.5% to 2% and doing a patch test is highly recommended.
