How It Works

The 2% Salicylic Acid works by breaking down keratin, the protein that forms dead skin, allowing exfoliation of flaky skin. This clears away scales and allows other beneficial ingredients to penetrate deeper into the skin, providing relief from itching and irritation. The soap-free formulation prevents stripping natural oils, helping to restore and maintain the skin's natural moisture barrier.
