Q: I also use a face wash with 1% salicylic acid. Is it safe to combine these 2 products or will it dry out my skin?
submitted by Amy - 1 year ago
A: Hey Amy, It is safe to combine the Clean & Clear Essentials Dual Action Facial Moisturizer with a 1% Salicylic acid. Depending on your skin type, you may experience drier skin. If you do, I recommend not using more than one salicylic acid product in your skincare routine.

I feel like this product started drying my skin after using it for one week. That doesn’t mean other people shouldn’t buy it as there are different reactions for different skin types.

I used this product when I was first struggling with combination skin in my teens. I'm so thankful I found it again in my late 20s! It is the perfect moisturizer for dealing with clogged pores and oil balance. It's not too heavy and still gives my skin the moisture it needs. Lightweight and buildable with other products. I use it everyday.
You can feel the salisylic acid but it works well

My face feels really soft and moisturized after putting it on! I put it on in the AM & PM, and so far have enjoyed it. However, my eyes water (not dramatically) after putting it on? I’m wondering if it’s the acne treatment chemicals.

I have normal to dry skin that gets a tad oily in the T-zone on work days. I’ve tried countless moisturizers trying to get used to the new normal of not having to wear an N-95 for 12 hours at work. My face has been through the ringer these last couple years so while it’s still dry, the minor oiliness it now produces in the T-zone causes tiny breakouts between my eyebrows and on my chin. I have never had any issues with breakouts in my life pre-Covid and mask-wearing, so this has been incredibly annoying to deal with. Enter clean and clear. I tried this based on reviews and it was way too light alone for moisturizing because my skin is back to being very dry for the most part. I expected this though. I had the idea of mixing a couple pumps of this with my slightly heavier daily moisturizer in hopes that the small amount of salicylic acid in this lotion would prevent those annoying little breakouts and control the oil while at work…. IT WORKS! I will never look back. My face is COMPLETELY CLEAR. I have never in my life thought of using salicylic acid because I have dry skin and that is a dry-skinned persons worst enemy, but mixing it with my day and night creams has been nothing short of miraculous! No more breakouts, no uneven skin tone, nada. It has kept my skin completely clear and smooth. Total game changer! I will never be without this.
cheap but works!

This product is pretty good, I just wish it was fragrance free and it seems like it has more fragrance than I remember. Please consider changing this for sensitive skin. I don’t need the heavy perfume on my face.

I read the reviews but decided to try it still but it burned my face and I only put a tiny dab on my cheeks. I tried it a second time and mixed it in with another lotion to see if it helps but it still burned and it also felt itchy later and my eyes started to get watery from this moisturizer. Left my skin with really dry and I have oily combo skin. The clean and clear advantage acne salicylic acid spot treatment don't burn like this moisturizer, so I'll use the spot treatment under another moisturizer. Everybody have different skin type so try it if you want but do a test spot first to see if you get an allergic reaction. It might work for others and even you but for some this might not work for their skin.
