La Roche-Posay Effaclar Micro-Peeling Purifying Gel is a step up from the standard Effaclar gel cleanser, specifically developed for those with persistent, stubborn or body-wide blemishes including face, chest and back acne. The higher-strength formula combines three complementary active ingredients for a multi-level approach to clearing congested, oily skin. Salicylic Acid at 2%, the highest concentration in the Effaclar range, is a beta-hydroxy acid that is oil-soluble, allowing it to penetrate deep into the pore lining to dissolve the sebum and dead cell build-up that causes blackheads, whiteheads and breakouts. Capryloyl Salicylic Acid (LHA) at 0.05% is a gentler, micro-exfoliating derivative of salicylic acid that works at the surface of the skin to gradually refine pore appearance, smooth skin texture and improve overall clarity without irritation. Zinc Gluconate at 0.2% purifies the skin, helps to regulate excess sebum production and provides an additional antibacterial action, while a refreshing cooling sensation from Menthol makes each cleanse feel invigorating. La Roche-Posay Thermal Spring Water, rich in selenium and trace elements, soothes and conditions during cleansing, and Glycerin maintains moisture balance to prevent the over-stripping that can cause rebound oiliness. Can be used on the face, chest and back for persistent body blemishes as well as facial acne. Hypoallergenic, alcohol-free and dermatologically tested on sensitive skin.
