Salicylic Acid Powder (120 g / 4.23 oz) - Cosmetic Grade Beta-Hydroxy Ingredient for DIY Skincare Formulations

I added some of this to the Amazon Basics liquid soap to make an anti-acne cleanser for myself. It works nicely. I can adjust the amount between what helps with the acne vs what dries my skin out. I use it every day and it manages my pimples well over time.

There were two ways I could have gone to make a 30% solution for cosmetic purposes. One way uses isopropyl alcohol, the other ethanol (grain alcohol/Everclear). I was only able to find 70% rubbing alcohol in the local stores, and I found a solution I made using it did not work very well--there are higher grades of rubbing alcohol made, but they don't sell them around here. I subsequently obtained some ethanol from a friend who makes herbal products, and I found I could make a solution that seems equally as effective as the commercially produced 30% solution I first tried several years ago (I tried three different 30% formulas, and only the first kind worked really well; I was pleased to duplicate its effects with my own solution). One can make a solution by calculating the volume of the salicylic acid, or with a lab scale. I used the lab scale, which took a little messing around with to make sure I was doing it right, but my guess is that the result is more precise. It has now been over a week since I applied the 30% salicylic acid solution I made to areas of my face that needed a little help, and the chemical peel action came out just right, not too strong, but promoting an even peel where applied. This product seems to work as intended--30% peels are generally not cheap, and this bag of salicylic acid powder is an economical investment.

Works really well if used wisely....i use mine with alovera gel for 10 mins maybe ..it works....adding a small scooper would have been a plus.

This product does what it is recommended for. As a Trichologist I use it with other powders to clean my clients scalp and I see the difference.

Lo que buscaba

I was hoping this would be the perfect solution as I have terrible flaky skin and KP but it’s not as effective as other treatments with salicylic . Maybe I’m using it wrong- I was told it would be better as a toner by itself instead of adding to products. Overall- it’s ok.

My husband got a bottle of salicyclic acid, and asked me to reorder, and I stumbled on this. This is 100 percent pure, and it works great. I used this in many ways, so much, I had to reorder more. So this works for wounds, exfoliating and topical pain relief. I used this originally on my Jack Russell Terrier dog, Bandit. He had gotten attacked by some type of bugs in the soil by my house. I tried EVERYTHING in the pet department. This was recommended to me by my husband (scientist). I cleaned his wounds with mild soap and water, loaded up the "injuries" with this powder, and wrapped with medical waterproof tape. Within 24 hours, I noticed a HUGE difference in Bandits wounds. I also used this on my face to buff it ( be careful and hold your breath when applying, because I inhaled it a few times. Not that its dangerous, its like being caught in a chalky cloud, and made me cough, that is it) I noticed my wrinkles started to disappear, and my skin looked better also. After you put it on your face, you will probably want to use a little moisturizer. It is like having a mild chemical peel. I used it more than once.... I need ALOT of peeling after 52 years of being a sun bum. :) This is now a staple in my house.

This's ok

Llegó a tiempo, el producto es lo que yo esperaba. Muy contento. Lo seguiré comprando.

Good

If you wear a mask for the powder drift, it is safe and easy to use.

I used to buy expensive Paula's Choice exfolainty, but with this I can make it even better exfoliant for a fraction of the price! I use a 70% mix of isopropanol-water and mix in 1g per 250ml (i.e. 4g per litre or 4%) of salicylic acid powder. For the Paula's Choice 118ml bottle, I use 0.5g powder (one hefty 1/4 tsp aka 1.25ml scoop) and top up with isoprop mixture. 5% mix is maximum strength, most lotions are 2%

娘の二の腕ポツポツにワセリンと混ぜて使ってます。1日１回お風呂上がりに使い、1週間程で良い感じに目立たなくなってきました。個人差はあると思いますが、大量に使用せず薄く塗って気長に使用してみようかと本人は話していました。
