  • @SleeKi you could probably use something more powerful there since leg skin is thicker than facial skin! like exfoliate really well then apply a mask to it then apply salicylic acid! :)

  • Does anyone know what salicylic acid product I can use??

  • hey thnx great vid. plz advice wht kind of form i need to buy like a gel, cream or liquid for both of dem.

  • i think benzolye peroxide is ma acne cure.

  • Oily skin is my enemy! Runs in the family. However, oily skin is good at keeping me look younger as my skin isn't all dry and wrinkly. It's a blessing and a curse.

  • @dummynator854 lol i know right!

  • Yeah. I'm also using both and really really helpful to get rid of acne! Salicylic acid for morning since i have oily skin.Salicylic helps my face stay in NOT oily skin if i use in the morning.I also use benzoyl peroxide for night before i go to bed.

  • Salicylic acid is also good for acne marks.

  • I've just started using salicylic acid on my black heads on my nose, it seems to be helping! :) my nose has lightened up..

  • @03lyss It's best to apply a thin layer, let it sink into the skin for 15 minutes, after that you should apply moisturizer to the skin. This is the most efficient routine, see acne(dot)org. I use extra virgin olive oil as a moisturizer and apply benzoyl peroxide (5%) before going to bed. If you use BP in a cream or gel form, you will not find any residual on the skin in the morning so it's not necessary to wash. Thanks to BP I'm 100% pimple free since about 5 weeks ago. Good luck! :)
