What does salicylic acid do? I heard it helps clear and prevent acne
The Answer by ♫♥OfficeFanatic♥♫ :
Wikipedia":…salicylic acid is a key ingredient in many skin-care products for the treatment of acne, psoriasis, calluses, corns, keratosis pilaris, and warts. It works by causing the cells of the epidermis to slough off more readily, preventing pores from clogging up, and allowing room for new cell growth."

Acne Website:"Acne is formed when skin cells inside hair follicles shed too fast and clump together, plugging up the follicle and causing a pimple. Salicylic acid helps slow down shedding of the cells inside the follicles, preventing clogging. Salicylic acid also helps break down blackheads and whiteheads."

I absolutely recommend Neutrogena Skin Clearing Makeup. It has slicylic acid and it is oil free which helps also. It is always fresh and never looks cakey! I hoped I helped! =]
