Skin Care Review: Olay Total Effects Salicylic Acid 1.5%

by Holly

Rating
Excellent

Benefits
All day acne busting power. Less breakouts and healthier looking skin.

Drawbacks
Skin could have sensitivity to salicylic acid.

Details
I have suffered severe painful acne for over 15 years. A doctor finally got me on a helpful regime of oral and topical products, but i still had annoying breakouts on my jaw line. i started researching and learned beta hydroxy acids like salicylic acid are especially useful for penetrating into the clogged acne pore. many people use benzoyl peroxide for unclogging pores, but i am allergic. i experimented with salicylic acid products and found this one to have the least side effects and most benefits.

Conclusions
a good product to try before spending hundreds at the Doctor for pills and creams

Price (paid by reviewer)
$18

Where to find it
Drugstore
