This product also contains Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid). It can be an effective active for anti-aging and evening out the skin tone, but in "Clinique - Fresh pressed 7-Day System with Pure Vitamin C All Skin Types 8" it is used for stabilizing other ingredients in the formulation. In this concentration (1.80% - 2.70%) it cannot have a noticeable benefit for the skin.
Salicylic acid (0.40% - 1.00%). This is an oil-soluble exfoliating acid. Because of this property, it can work inside pores and help reduce the congestion. It has an anti-inflammatory effect and is used to treat acne. Because it is a quite strong exfoliator, be careful with using this product too often: it could result in over-exfoliation.
