Overview
A salicylic acid astringent from Clean and Clear's Essentials line, sold as a two-bottle value pack (8 oz each, 16 oz total) aimed at acne-prone skin.
This is a drugstore staple rather than a new formula, made by Johnson and Johnson under the Clean and Clear brand, leaning on salicylic acid to exfoliate rather than the botanical or peptide actives common elsewhere in this batch.
- Salicylic acid active ingredient
- Two 8 oz bottles, 16 oz total
- Unscented
- Made by Johnson and Johnson
Who it's for
Suits acne-prone or oily skin wanting a straightforward salicylic acid astringent at drugstore pricing. Not for dry or sensitive skin, where astringents of this type tend to be drying.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Salicylic acid targets acne and clogged pores
- Two 8 oz bottles for value
- Astringent formulas can be drying for some skin types
- Not suited to dry or sensitive skin
Performance notes
Salicylic acid is a beta hydroxy acid that exfoliates inside pores, which is why this astringent is positioned for acne rather than general toning. Being labeled unscented keeps added fragrance out of a formula already working on breakout-prone skin.
