New formula!
In our great new treatment pump dispensing system. Allows for contamination-free application.
Great for acne conditions, this aqueous beta hydroxy acid(salicylic acid)and benzoyl peroxide formula, cleans and gently exfoliates skin to allow further penetration and effectiveness of copper peptide solution. Non-irritating. Even if you cannot usually use benzoyl peroxide, this solution will work for you. Helps to remove pitted acne scars and clarifies complexion. Can be used 1-2 times daily.
Salicylic Acid is more effective than Glycolic Acid, but it is less harsh on the skin. A small amount of the salicylic acid is converted into copper salicylate, a powerful and safe anti-inflammatory. So, when you use Salicylic Acid, it has it's own built-in anti-inflammatory effect to keep your skin from being damaged. Salicylic Acid blends powerful skin exfoliation with skin soothing actions. The addition of 2.5% benzoyl peroxide with the salicylic acid serum provides a powerful 1-2 punch to acne skin conditions. Salicylate also has ultraviolet protection properties. This means that it helps to protect the skin from the damaging effects of the sun. Glycolic Acid does not have these properties.
A leading dermatologist, Dr. Albert Kligman, believes that BHAs, in particular Salicylic Acid, at concentrations of about 2% or higher, are better than AHAs for anti-aging and for skin exfoliation.
Professor Kligman is well known in dermatology for his research on the anti-aging actions of retinoic acid (Retin-A). Results from Dr. Kligman's laboratory found that the outermost layer of skin is renewed and rejuvenated after applications of salicylic acid.
Use alone or apply a Copper Peptide product for the triple anti-aging benefits of Copper Peptides, Benzoyl Peroxide and Salicylic Acid.
Caution: For those allergic or sensitive to Salicylic Acid - If you have allergies to salicylates (asprin, etc.), we recommend you use an alpha hydroxy acid such as Glycolic Acid or Lactic Acid instead.
The presence of other medical problems may affect the use of salicylic acid. Make sure you tell your doctor if you have any other medical conditions. Especially:
