Salicylic Acid COA
"Salicylic acid functions as an exfoliant, an analgesic, and an anti-inflammatory. It is useful in the treatment of acne, superficial inflammatory disorders, and photoaging, and works well as a superficial, in-office peel."
Baumann SL., Salicylic Acid, Skin & Allergy News- 2001 09 (Vol. 32, Issue 9)
"Also known as 2-hydroxybenzoic acid (one of several beta hydroxy acids (compare to AHA), salicylic acid is the key additive in many skin-care products for the treatment of acne, psoriasis, calluses, corns, keratosis pilaris and warts. It treats acne by causing skin cells to slough off more readily, preventing pores from clogging up. This effect on skin cells also makes salicylic acid an active ingredient in several shampoos meant to treat dandruff. Use of straight salicylic solution may cause hyperpigmentation on unpretreated skin for those with darker skin types (Fitzpatrick phototypes IV, V, VI), as well as with the lack of use of a broad spectrum sunblock."
