Alba Botanica Acnedote Deep Pore Wash, 177ml

My skin has started getting rashes after using it for 2 days. I cannot return the product now. Probably these products don't work with the weather conditions we have in India. Pls. make a note.

2% salicylic acid is a very high concentration. Use it just once a week and increase it to 3 times a week but not more than that. Do a patch test before using it and build up the amount gradually. Follow it up with a toner and a ceramide moisturizer as BHA is supposed to dry your sebum. Do not use any other actives like vitamin C or retinol for 24 hours after using this.

So far I haven’t seen much improvement with my acne using this product.

I've been using this face wash for years and keep coming back to it. It works incredibly well at keeping my skin clear without leaving it feeling overly dry or stripped. A little goes a long way, and one bottle lasts quite a while.I love that it contains salicylic acid but still feels gentler than many other acne cleansers I've tried. It leaves my skin feeling clean and refreshed, and I've noticed fewer breakouts when I use it consistently. The scent is light and pleasant, and it rinses off easily without leaving any residue behind.This has become a staple in my skincare routine, and I buy it over and over again. Effective, affordable, and reliable—exactly what I want in a face wash. Highly recommend!

At 63 years old I thought my acne would go away but that wasn't the case for me...most products out there are forteenagers with oily skin so for me they were to harsh and dried out my skin causing even more wrinkles. This product does a great job and doesn't irritate the skin. It works for me.

I bought this after deciding that I wanted to start a new skin care regime. I've always washed my face, and used toners and makeup, but recently decided I needed to start moisturizing and discontinue to the use of very strong hydrogen peroxide cleansers in order to let my face be at it's best. I've suffered from acne for years. I am now 29 yrs old and believe a lot of it was caused by my poor knowledge of how to cleanse. I started out double cleansing with the Boscia oil cleanser and bought this as my second cleanse. I've used the alba acnedote peel mask before and liked that the ingredients in the alba line are botanical and natural. This has a very light scent that's hard to define, it's definitely not strong and maybe can be described as a bright, citrus scent. It's a thin, runny cleanser and did arrive from Amazon with some of it leaking and coating the outside but I just rinsed it and that was that. This does foam up, which I love, and does an effective job at removing makeup and oil without being harsh. It's NOT supposed to be eaten, but while washing if a bit gets on your lips which tends to happen, it tastes like citrus. Which tells me it does have a high content of botanical plant based ingredients. Of course I didn't mean to taste it but there ya go. I have it on auto delivery once per month now because it takes me about a month to use up and I'm using this as my regular cleanser now. You must needn't use a lot and sometimes too much comes out of the bottle but if you're aware before using it that can be avoided. My new go to! My face has cleared up considerably using the ordinary squalane cleanser as the first cleanse, the alba as the second, followed by the ordinary glycolic acid toner, and topped off with a bit of the ordinary moisturizing factors. I do not use a sunscreen and i know that will horrify most skincare junkies but there is a sunscreen in my foundation and I wear it everyday. I still have a long way to go with my skincare routine and perfecting it but the alba is here to stay. My face literally feels squeaky clean but not taut and dried out from harsh ingredients. Love this. Thanks alba

I am 60 years of age and have had late onset adult acne since I was 30 years old. This product Really, Really deep cleans !!! Will initially sting on open lesions and sores. Will not do so on closed acne lesions. Also useful clearing sweat and grime after strenuous, aerobic exercise or working hard in the garden.I will definitely buy again
