Inside the formula
Kadar's Salicylic Acid 2% Clay Masque is a mask: clay built around Salicylic Acid 2%. It is dosed to work, printed on the front, and made without added fragrance or filler. A rinse-off clay mask with salicylic acid to draw out congestion.
An oil-soluble beta hydroxy acid that gets inside the pore. Oily and congestion-prone skin. Avoid high strengths in pregnancy.
Salicylic Acid: Clears congestion, blackheads and breakouts, and reduces shine.
What’s in it, and why
Salicylic Acid: BHA; clears inside the pore
Kaolin: Clay; absorbs oil and decongests
Charcoal: Draws out impurities
How it works
Salicylic acid is an oil-soluble beta hydroxy acid, so it travels into the pore to dissolve the debris behind congestion and blackheads. It also gently exfoliates the surface and helps control shine.

How to use & layer
Evening only
Apply an even layer to clean skin once or twice a week. Leave 10 minutes, then rinse. Evening.
Where it fits: Best in the evening. If you also use a retinoid, alternate them on separate nights rather than layering, then follow with a moisturiser.
