Beta-hydroxy acid (BHA) which is found in some plants.
Salicylic acid is used as an exfoliant in peelings, especially in combination with AHA acids (eg glycolic acid), in anti-dandruff, anti-acne products and as a preservative due to its antiseptic properties. Also for sebum balancing products for oily skin. It is effective in getting rid of blackheads or open comedones because it has the ability to penetrate deep into the pores. In cosmetics, it is one of the most popular ingredients in anti-acne products.
