by Shahwaz . 19 Mar 2025

Ever Wondered Why Your Acne Keeps Coming Back?

Hey bestie, let’s be real—acne is the absolute worst. One day your skin is behaving, and the next, boom! A breakout appears right before an important event. And if you have oily skin, it feels like a constant battle. But what if I told you there’s one ingredient that could help control acne, prevent breakouts, and keep your skin fresh? Enter Salicylic Acid!

If you've been searching for the best skincare routine for acne-prone skin, or wondering how skincare works when it comes to breakouts, then this is for you. Let’s break it down!

What is Salicylic Acid and How Does It Work?

Salicylic Acid is a beta-hydroxy acid (BHA), which is basically a fancy way of saying it exfoliates your skin and dives deep into your pores. Unlike other acids that work on the surface, Salicylic Acid penetrates inside the pores, breaking down all the oil, dirt, and dead skin cells clogging them up. And guess what? That’s exactly what makes it so powerful for oily and acne-prone skin.

SALICYLIC ACID SERUM


Why Skincare is Not Working for You? Most people with acne try to dry out their skin, thinking that will stop the breakouts. Big mistake! When your skin feels dry, it overproduces oil to compensate—leading to even more pimples. Salicylic Acid balances this process, keeping excess oil in check while preventing your pores from getting clogged.

SALICYLIC ACID SERUM

Top Benefits of Salicylic Acid for Oily & Acne-Prone Skin

✅ Clears Acne & Blackheads – It dissolves oil and debris trapped inside your pores, preventing acne from forming.
✅ Reduces Inflammation & Redness – If your pimples look angry and swollen, Salicylic Acid helps calm them down.
✅ Prevents Future Breakouts – By keeping your pores clean, it stops acne before it even starts.
✅ Exfoliates Dead Skin – It gently removes dead skin cells, making your skin brighter and smoother.
✅ Controls Oil Production – No more greasy forehead by lunchtime! It helps keep excess oil in check.


Best Skincare Routine for Acne-Prone Skin Using Salicylic Acid

Now that you know why skincare is important, let’s build a routine that actually works. If you’ve been wondering which skincare products are best for oily skin, we got you!

Morning Routine:

🌞 Step 1: Salicylic Acid Face Wash – Start your day with a gentle face wash that contains Salicylic Acid. It clears excess oil and preps your skin for the day. (Psst… Barclay Italy’s Salicylic Acid Face Wash is a must-try!)
🌞 Step 2: Chamomile Hyaluronic Toner – Keeps your skin hydrated without making it greasy.
🌞 Step 3: Lightweight Moisturizer – Even oily skin needs hydration!
🌞 Step 4: Sunscreen (SPF 60++++) – Salicylic Acid makes your skin more sensitive to the sun, so never skip SPF!


Night Routine:

🌙 Step 1: Salicylic Acid Face Wash – Wash away the dirt and oil buildup from the day.
🌙 Step 2: Salicylic Acid Serum – Apply a thin layer of Salicylic Acid Serum before bed to keep acne at bay.
🌙 Step 3: Moisturizer – Hydration is key, even at night!

💡 Pro Tip: If you have dry or sensitive skin, use Salicylic Acid only once a day or every other day to avoid irritation.
