Salicylic acid face wash: Do's and Don'ts


Here's a simple guide on the do's and don'ts of using salicylic acid face wash.

Do's

  • Start Slowly: Begin by using a salicylic acid face wash once a day to see how your skin reacts. Gradually increase usage if your skin tolerates it well.

  • Moisturize Afterwards: Apply a gentle, hydrating moisturizer after washing to prevent dryness and maintain skin balance.

  • Use Sunscreen: Salicylic acid can make your skin more sensitive to the sun. Always apply sunscreen during the day to protect your skin.

  • Choose the Right Concentration: Opt for a product with 0.5% to 2% salicylic acid, depending on your skin type and concerns.

Don'ts

  • Don't Overuse: Using the foaming face wash too frequently can lead to dryness and irritation. Stick to recommended usage.

  • Avoid Mixing with Harsh Products: Don't combine with other strong acids or exfoliants, as this can damage your skin barrier.

Skip if Allergic: If you have known allergies to salicylic acid or aspirin, avoid using these products.
