FAQ

I noticed that Astringent is available in two strengths, how do I decide which is best for me?

Even the 2% can be very strong for some individuals. We recommend you start with 2% and if necessary, progress to 10% for areas with thicker skin like the back.

Is it always necessary to use an astringent daily?

Astringents are incorporated in a daily regimen for oily and acneic skin. Salicylic acid is an effective ingredient in controlling oil. Since it is the oil that feeds the bacteria present in acne, controlling oil will have an effect on controlling acne.

I love using Astringent No. 2 on my skin as it controls the oil. However, my skin gets very red afterwards. What can I do?

Follow the application of Astringent with Daily Skin Clarifier to reduce redness and calm irritation. Because of the anti-inflammatory benefits of Bearberry Extract, Mulberry Extract and Licorice Extract, Daily Skin Clarifier is the fastest way to calm the skin after any active product.

Is this product safe for pregnant or breastfeeding moms?

No, salicylic acid is not recommended for pregnant or breastfeeding mothers unless prescribed by a Physician. Any age/health restrictions on usage (ie: safe for babies and children, frail skin, etc.).
