How Does Salicylic Acid Work?
Salicylic acid is suitable for oily skin with complaints such as acne, breakouts, whiteheads, blackheads, blocked pores and redness/inflammation. Salicylic acid is oil soluble, which means that when applied it works within the pore, with regular use the dirt, dead skin, bacteria and oil causing the blockage will reduce, the pore will reduce in size and the oil that was once blocked will be able to flow through the pore, this is important as our skin's natural oil (sebum) keeps our skin nourished, healthy and supple.

Like many others, we have found ourselves under the perilous predominance of SAD over the past winter months. But what is SAD? According to http://www.mentalhealth.org.uk Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) is a form of depression that the NHS estimates to affect approximately one in fifteen people in the UK. “It can be particularly severe during December, January and February.
