Description
2% Salicylic Acid – Advanced Serum 4
Our 2% Salicylic Acid Advanced Serum 4 is a water-free oil serum: the salicylic acid is dissolved directly into a light emollient base rather than carried in water or alcohol, for a gentler feel than a typical acid serum. Sunflower and safflower seed oils, squalane and coco-caprylate keep it lightweight and fast-absorbing, while Roman chamomile and bergamot give it a soft, natural scent. Formulated to help refine the look of pores and support smoother, clearer-looking skin. Cruelty-free, no animal testing, ever.
Ideal for:
Skin that looks textured, dull or prone to visible pores, wanting a gentle, non-drying approach to a smoother, more refined-looking complexion. Especially suited to anyone who finds water or alcohol-based acid serums drying or harsh.
How to use:
Apply a small amount to cleansed skin in the evening and massage in gently until absorbed. Patch test before first use. Follow with sunscreen the next morning; salicylic acid increases sun sensitivity. This is an oil-based serum: if it gets into eyes, gently wipe away with a soft dry cloth or tissue, do not rinse with water.
What to expect:
A lightweight, fast-absorbing oil finish with no greasy after-feel. With consistent use, pores look more refined and skin looks smoother and clearer.
Key Ingredients:
- Salicylic Acid (2%): an oil-soluble BHA long associated with a clearer, smoother-looking complexion and more refined-looking pores. Delivered here in a water-free oil base rather than a stripping water or alcohol-based one.
- Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil & Carthamus Tinctorius (Safflower) Seed Oil: light, fast-absorbing plant oils that carry the formula without feeling greasy.
- Octyldodecanol & Coco-Caprylate: silky, quick-absorbing emollients; Octyldodecanol also carries and helps dissolve the Salicylic Acid.
- Squalane: a lightweight, plant-derived emollient that helps skin feel smooth and comfortable.
- Anthemis Nobilis (Roman Chamomile) Flower Oil & Bergamot Fruit Oil: the serum’s natural botanical scent, gentle chamomile lifted with a touch of fresh bergamot.

Helianthus Annuus Seed Oil, Carthamus Tinctorius Seed Oil, Octyldodecanol, Coco-Caprylate, Squalane, Salicylic Acid, Anthemis Nobilis Flower Oil, Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Fruit Oil, Limonene, Linalool
