Salicylic acid is an exfoliating agent that is oil soluble and able to penetrate pores which makes it ideal for unclogging pores to alleviate the blockage that leads to breakouts. Along with its antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties, salicylic acid is ideal for acne prone skin. Salicylic acid is referred to as a BHA or beta hydroxy acid and increases sun sensitivity so it is important to wear sunscreen when using salicylic acid.
