Pure Original Ingredients Salicylic Acid 2% Solution (30 mL), Pure & Simple Serum

Not at all original Not to buy. Waste of money. Highly disappointing

Okay, a couple things to note, after having read through tons of the reviews for this product. Some of these reviewers are killing me... First and foremost, salicylic acid IS ACID. If you buy salicylic acid and don't know that acid can burn skin, you need to rethink your life choices. Salicylic acid is intended to be used as a CHEMICAL PEEL. Do not buy and use this acid then complain that it burns or peels. That's literally it's job. And it does it's job very well. Second, it does not come with detailed instructions on the bottle. There are clear instructions on the ad page, but if you're buying a chemical peel acid, don't just slap it on your face if you haven't already educated yourself on its proper use first. Who puts acid on their face without knowing what they're doing?? Okay, now that I've gotten that rant over, this is great stuff. Good quality, good quantity, good price. Do your research first so you know how to use it, how long and how often, how to neutralize it and how to do proper after care. Then enjoy the benefits of a good acid peel treatment in the convenience of your own home. Love this stuff!

I purchased this about a month ago as a last ditch effort. I stopped taking birth control over a year ago and my face acne came back with a vengeance. My body felt incredible but my skins was a mess. I spent months trying creams and probiotics, but nothing worked until this. Within just a month my skin is nearly clear. Finally!!! I do have a few recommendations if you plan to try this for the first time. I apply a light layer over my problem areas morning and night. It mildly stings for about 5 minutes after applying but it goes away quickly. It does dry out skin, so I use an exfoliating face brush daily and an exfoliating cream every other day. I use a lightweight moisturizer morning and night as well. I did this for about a month and my acne is nearly erased. So, now I will start to use it as a spot treatment as needed. For me, blemishes dry up in 1-2 days with this. It’s incredible stuff. This is officially a staple in my house and I highly recommend this to anyone struggling with breakouts. I couldn’t be happier with the results!!

Now let me first start off by saying- this stuff is a gift from the heavens. Better than tea tree oil or whatever else I’ve used to help with blemishes. But let’s go more into detail: Before purchasing this, you really wanna make sure you have some type of witch hazel or something like that , to help with the burn and redness. Because this stuff does BURN- a lot. Fortunately though: your skin will get used to the burning sensation after a few times of using this. Secondly- the first time you use this on the problem area, leave it on for like 20 seconds. Yes it’s gonna burn. Yes, the initial reaction will scare you- but the redness, irritation, and puffiness will subside after a few hours. Not gonna lie when I first used this stuff on this stupid bug bite I had, the way it made my skin look- terrified me lol. But the results were something out of a book of sorcery or something because… just trust the process. Now the effects- For the first few hours, the problem area, bite, acne, etc- will look super inflamed and red. But I would say after maybe 6-8, whatever bump, bug bite or pimple you had, will literally shrivel up. I’d recommend applying this a few times throughout the day, if you really want it your bump to wilt away- and die. Also, PLEASE get some type of neutralizer like witch hazel or whatever, to help with the redness. Also, after about 20-30 seconds- wash with COLD water. You’ll thank me later. If you do this, When you wake up in the morning, it’ll pretty much be either- gone, or close to it. I’ve never seen anything like it in my life. Now the after effects- You may have some “scarring”. This scared me at first, as the bump was gone, but the area around it- darkened. Good news is- it literally peels away after like a day, and pretty brand new skin appears, feeling nice and smooth. This stuff is magical, revolutionary, brilliant! Please buy this- now

It's a potent serum that gets straight to the point. Pros: -Gave me smooth skin -Cleared out many of my blackheads -Popped pimples for me -Gave me smaller pores -Affordable -Made in the USA Cons: -Burns like crazy -Can dry out your skin and make it peel -Did not magically erase all the bumps on my face Tips: -Use several times throughout the week depending on your skincare needs. I used it twice back to back at night. -Have a moisturizer ready for your face after treatment -Protect your hands; it caused peeling on mine -Prepare for the burning sensation with a fan or have water nearby Note: I did not wash this treatment off my face. I left it on all night and did not mix it with other products.

I have had medical grade peels in the past. Although peels performed by a licensed Dermatologist are of higher grade, this is a great at home and/or alternative product that delivers results. Things to consider: Consider having a professional medical grade peel first. Wait the time needed to heal. Follow up with this salicylic acid by Pure at home and as prescribed. This product will then better be able to penetrate the skins layers, significantly prolonging and maintaining the results. You may feel a burning, tingling sensation. Your face may turn red. To help mitigate these effects, leave on skin for 30 seconds and only use it a couple of times a week. Once your skin becomes acclimated, you are able to leave it on longer and use it more often. You may experience flaking. This is more true for people who already have dry skin. If you have problematic skin (acne), your skin may purge. It’s important to know that when using any AHA/BHA’s, purging of the skin is a completely normal process. To yield the best results, consistency is key. It may get worse before it gets better. Stick with it. It can take 4-6 weeks to yield full results. You do not need a neutralizer. Cool water applied to the face will neutralize this product. In fact, if you read the ingredients in a neutralizer, you will see it’s just (distilled) water. Save your money here. Moisturize. Any acids can be extremely drying to the skin, so it’s important that you have a good moisturizer. Applying a face oil after your moisturizer as the last step of your skin care routine can hugely beneficial your skin’s moisture content. Acids will make your skin hyper sensitive to the sun’s rays, so it is imperative that you use at least a SPF 30 in the morning on daily basis. Over time, this product will render visible results, reducing pore size, blackheads, acne and fine lines. This will lead to your skin’s texture looking and feeling smooth and radiant. Worth incorporating into your skin care routine.
