Skingredients Sally Cleanse 2% Salicylic Acid Oil Control Cleanser Skingredients

Here’s to putting Sally on a pedestal – that’s Skingredients Sally Cleanse 2% Salicylic Acid Oil Control Cleanser  (100ml), our multi-award-winning, 2% salicylic acid treatment cleanser that moonlights as a spot-zapper + micro-mask on the side. 

Salicylic acid is an oil-soluble beta-hydroxy acid (BHA) that deep dives into pores to dissolve the sebum (aka oil), + dead skin cells, which helps to tackle spots, blackheads, lumps + bumps. It’ll effectively exfoliate the skin’s surface for instantly smoother results and help to lift away excess oiliness for a matte finish – it’s also an anti-inflammatory ingredient, which will ease redness in the skin.  

Sally Cleanse is part of our Match + Mix® range of skincare. They’re “add-ons” to your Skingredients core recipe – that’s the KeyFour – which work to address your individual skin concerns + help you reach your skin goals. Incorporate our Match + Mix products, like Sally Cleanse, into your AM + PM skincare routine when your skin needs it. 

She’s a powerful ally to oily skinned hoomans, our Sally, but her company is best enjoyed in small doses – that’s every 3rd PM to prevent skin irritation. Her BFF? PreProbiotic Cleanse of course. Use them alongside each other to exfoliate + give back to the skin. Plus, it’s a skin-smoothing hero for bacne, chestne + bumne (be careful around sensitive areas) and keratosis pilaris, aka chicken skin. 

Please note that you need to purchase a primary pack for each product if this is your first purchase as the refill tubes do not come with pumps.

Rock Star Ingredients: 

• Salicylic acid: a beta-hydroxy acid (BHA) that dissolves oil and debris in the pore and exfoliates the skin 

Who It’s For:

• Those with blackheads (open comedones) and whiteheads (closed comedones) – Sally gets to the root of spots and blackheads by clearing pores

Nerdie tip: Use Sally as a wash-off spot-zapper or as a micro-mask. If you’re oily-skinned or prone to any form of congestion anywhere, whether it be blackheads of keratosis pilaris (chicken skin), Sally is your new best friend. 

How To Use: 

1. Use PM every 3rd night after pre-cleansing as your treatment cleanser – avoiding the delicate eye area. 

1. Pump a coin-sized amount of cleanser into wet palms. 

1. Massage into your face using firm, circular, outward motions, focusing the product on areas of congestion. 

1. After 60 seconds, rinse and remove with hands or the Cleanse Off Mitt®. 

To use Sally Cleanse as a spot-zapper: Apply directly to spots, leave for three minutes and remove thoroughly with water. It’ll help to reduce inflammation and bacteria in the affected area. 

To use Sally Cleanse as a micro-mask: massage Sally Cleanse into cleansed skin, leave for 2 minutes and then remove. We recommend that you do this once-a-week maximum to avoid skin irritation. Apply Sally Cleanse to particularly oily areas, like your T-zone, or patches of bumpy skin.
