Key Actives

Salicylic Acid, Essential Oils,
and Soothing Botanicals — What Each Does.

2% BHA · Key Active

Salicylic Acid

A beta hydroxy acid that is oil-soluble — unlike AHAs, it can penetrate directly into the pore lining where sebum, bacteria, and dead cell debris accumulate. At 2%, it dries up existing acne, kills acne-causing bacteria within the pore, reduces redness, and prevents new breakouts by keeping pores clear.

Antimicrobial

Essential Oils

Essential oils provide natural antimicrobial and antiseptic activity that complements Salicylic Acid's bacteria-killing action. They contribute to the refreshed, clarified feeling of the formula while targeting the microbial causes of acne and congestion at the skin surface.

Calming

Soothing Botanicals

Botanical extracts counterbalance the astringent and acid activity to prevent over-drying and irritation. They reduce redness and calm the inflammatory response associated with active breakouts — delivering the clearing benefits of a clinical astringent without the harsh, stripped feel of older-generation formulas.

Oil Control

Sebum Regulation

The astringent formula tightens pores and controls excess sebum production — visibly reducing shine and preventing the excess oil that feeds acne-causing bacteria. Appropriate for oily and combination skin types where overactive sebaceous glands contribute to persistent breakouts and congestion.

Clarifying

Pore Penetration

Salicylic Acid's oil solubility gives this astringent access to the interior of the pore — the origin point of most breakouts and congestion. By exfoliating within the pore lining and dissolving the plug of dead cells and sebum, it clears existing blockages and prevents new ones from forming.

Daily Use

AM + PM Application

Lightweight formulation designed for twice-daily use — providing continuous oil control, bacteria management, and pore clarification as part of a morning and evening professional acne or clarity protocol. Apply with a cotton pad after cleansing and before serums and moisturizer.

What You'll Notice

What It Does

Clearer

Acne dried up, bacteria eliminated, pores cleared — fewer breakouts with consistent daily use.

Balanced

Excess oil controlled and shine reduced — skin feels refreshed rather than tight or stripped.

Calmed

Redness reduced and inflammation soothed — botanicals calm while Salicylic Acid clears.

How to Use

Directions for Application

Apply to clean, dry skin morning and evening using a cotton pad. Avoid the eye area.

1

Cleanse Thoroughly

Begin with a clean face. The Astringent works most effectively on skin that is free of makeup, sunscreen, and surface debris — allowing the Salicylic Acid direct access to the pore opening and skin surface.

2

Apply with a Cotton Pad

Saturate a cotton pad with the Astringent and sweep across the face and neck using gentle upward strokes. Avoid the eye area. Morning and evening application provides continuous oil control and bacteria management throughout the day and overnight.

3

Allow to Fully Absorb

Allow the Astringent to dry and fully absorb into the skin before applying the next product. The Salicylic Acid continues to work within the pore lining during this time — do not rinse off.

4

Follow with Serums + Moisturizer

Follow with appropriate GlyMed Plus serums and a lightweight moisturizer. Apply broad-spectrum SPF every morning — Salicylic Acid increases photosensitivity with regular use. Use as part of a professional acne protocol or daily home clarity regimen.
