Cica + 2% Salicylic Serum

Q. Can I use the 2% Salicylic Serum if I have normal skin? How will it be beneficial?
A. Yes. You can use our 2% Salicylic+Cica Serum for normal skin as well. Even though the serum has been curated to treat acne, excess oil & skin inflammation, for normal skin like yours, it will only further refine your skin texture & make it healthier.
Q. How does 2% Salicylic treat active acne?
A. Salicylic acid is a well-known BHA that helps exfoliate dead skin cells, unclogs pores of dirt & oil & eventually works to reduce active acne along with associated skin concerns. Our 2% Salicylic Face Serum has been designed to penetrate skin deep to provide gentle exfoliation action. It will unclog pores of excess oil & minimise the pores to treat active acne & redness.
Q. Is 10% Salicylic+Cica serum suitable for sensitive skin?
A. We do not recommend this serum for sensitive skin as infused with the exfoliating property. You can try our 10% Niacinamide+Cica Face serum which as it soothes irritation, redness & skin inflammation, making it great for sensitive skin as well.
Q. What's the benefit of Cactus Water in the serum?
A. Cactus water clears toxins & improves overall skin texture.
Q. Suggest me a routine with this serum & other Dot & Key Products?
A. For PM: Cica Calming Face Wash->Cica Toner->2% Salicylic+Cica Serum->Cica Night Gel For AM: Cica Calming Face Wash->Cica Toner->2% Salicylic+Cica Serum->72Hrs Probiotic Face Cream->Sunscreen
Q. Can I use this serum with vitamin C moisturiser?
A. No! Any type of BHA & Vitamin C does not work well together. In fact, when used together, it causes severe breakout leading to redness, irritation & inflammation.
Q. Can Salicylic cause sensitivity, redness or irritation?
A. It highly depends on your skin type. If you have sensitive skin, chances are high that you may suffer sensitivity, redness or irritation. Also, make sure to mix it with the right skincare active to avoid the above-mentioned skincare concerns.
Q. Can I use this every day?
A. Yes, you can safely use this serum every day. Our serum is free of harmful chemicals and irritants as we aim to provide you best results backed by clean ingredients & cleaner formulations. Applying this serum every day twice (AM & PM) will provide the most consistent results.
Q. Is 2% Salicylic too strong?
A. While 2% Salicylic is potent, it is a concentration that's safe to use every day. However, it may react differently on different skin types. Therefore, we recommend patch testing first, and incorporating it slowly into your routine, watching how your skin responds.
Q. Can I use this serum around the eyes?
A. No! We recommend leaving the eye area and using the serum on your face & neck.
