Overview

Not a moisturizer or a basic toner, this Minimalist formula is a BHA serum with salicylic acid at its core, plus EGCG and oligopeptide 10. The listing shows the serum as the only item included.

A focused acne serum with a clear strength and a short, fragrance-free ingredient story is easy to understand. The limitation is acid load, since the active list adds glycolic and lactic acids alongside the main BHA.

Who it's for

A person with clogged pores, blackheads or oily patches who wants a plain, scent-free treatment fits the stated benefits. Those with dry or irritated skin, or who already use other acids, should add it slowly or choose a gentler product.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Fragrance free and non-comedogenic
  • Blackhead and oil control benefits
  • Free of parabens, silicone, sulfates
  • Listed for sensitive skin too
Cons
  • Acid strength may suit oily skin best
  • Directions for use not listed
  • Mixed acids in the active list

Performance notes

Salicylic acid is the lead active, and the serum is aimed at blackheads, breakouts and shine. The listing names exfoliating as a benefit and adds glycolic and lactic acids, so the cumulative acid effect is higher than a single-acid serum would suggest.
