Salicylic acid
Salicylic acid According to Dove Body Wash and Beauty Bar's dermatologist, Dr. Mona Gohara, salicylic acid is "one of acne's biggest foes!" She also notes that the popular beta hydroxy acid can "cut through pore-clogging sebum like no other." Olga Lorencin, celebrity esthetician and founder of Olga Lorencin Transformative Skin Care, agrees, adding that it's "also great for reducing inflammation in the skin."
