Dermistry 2% Salicylic Acid 2% Zinc Blackheads Whiteheads All Skin Types 30ml
Salicylic acid is a beta-hydroxy acid. It’s well-known for reducing acne by exfoliating the skin and keeping pores clear. Salicylic acid works best for acne blackheads and whiteheads. It can also help prevent future breakouts.
Salicylic acid and Zinc are both popular ingredients in skincare, each offering distinct benefits:
Benefits of Salicylic Acid:-
Exfoliation: Salicylic acid is a beta-hydroxy acid (BHA) that helps to exfoliate the skin by dissolving dead skin cells and unclogging pores. This can help with acne and improve skin texture.
Anti-Inflammatory: It has anti-inflammatory properties that can reduce redness and swelling, making it beneficial for acne-prone skin.
Oil Control: It helps to regulate oil production, which can be particularly useful for oily and combination skin types.
Zinc also has anti-inflammatory properties. This helps relieve some of the redness and irritation associated with moderate-to-severe acne. It may even help reduce the appearance of acne scars.
Benefits of Zinc
Anti-Inflammatory: Zinc has anti-inflammatory properties that can help reduce redness and irritation, making it useful for acne and other inflammatory skin conditions.
Healing: It promotes wound healing and can help soothe and repair damaged skin.
Oil Regulation: Zinc can help regulate oil production and reduce the appearance of pores.
Antimicrobial: It has antimicrobial properties that can help fight acne-causing bacteria.
Synergy of Salicylic Acid & Zinc
• Deep Cleansing + Oil Control: Salicylic acid exfoliates the skin and clears clogged pores, while zinc helps regulate oil production, reducing the chance of new blockages and acne formation. Together, they help maintain clear, non-congested pores.
• Reducing Acne Inflammation: Both ingredients have anti-inflammatory effects—salicylic acid reduces redness and swelling associated with acne, while zinc soothes irritated skin. This combination helps reduce the appearance of active breakouts.
• Healing and Prevention: Zinc’s healing properties help support the skin’s recovery after acne has cleared up, preventing post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (dark spots) and promoting smoother skin.
• Balancing Oily Skin: While salicylic acid addresses excessive oil production, zinc regulates sebum production, making this combination ideal for oily and combination skin types.
