I've been sleeping this!

KitkatNovember 13, 2025

This is amazing on my skin. I mostly use around my nose. I apply my other serums, notably the TO 10% Niacinamide + 1% Zinc. That one is a game changer for me. This one too --goes on as my last step and I only apply on areas that might be problematic and specifically on my nose and in the creases of my nose. I use this once daily. I have tried so many salicylic acid products, including the other TO 2% Salicylic Acid serum....and they all kind of sting, making them unenjoyable...and quite irritating. I don't know why, but this product does not do that...maybe the squalane base cushions the effects --who knows. Salicylic acid is attracted to oil...so I think this formula just goes straight to work on my pores. It has cleared all the sebaceous filaments, both wetter and harder plugs…like just melted them away, this is made obvious because I use a “skin spatula” where its job is to remove the gunk from pores….previously there was a lot to remove daily…now, its almost all gone. Previous salicylic acid products has never done this for me. Meanwhile this serum is non stinging and non irritating. Hope it works for you too! Read more

Effective addition to skin care!

Morgan MorrisNovember 27, 2025

Great addition to my skincare routine! I only use it twice a week right now to ease into it. Kind of an oily texture but it dries without a sticky residue feel. Read more

Love it

EboniNovember 18, 2025

I love love love this. When I say I have been skin flooding and ending my entire routine with this! Chefs kiss! My goodness! I have issues with dark marks that I am trying to rid of but my breakouts no longer exist. I have combination skin some parts are dry and some are oily like my t zone. But this neutrally gives me a glow but doesn’t make me look like I’m greasy. Read more
