Q: Is this for day and night?
submitted by tita - 2 years ago
A: Hey, Great question! The Naturium Salicylic acid face serum can be used for day and night! However, when salicylic acid is being used as a part of the AM skincare routine, it is important to end with sunscreen application as the last step of the process.

I was using a famous BHA toner that made may skin breakout completely. I got a lot of cystic acne and texture. Decided to buy this serum and in the first week of using, I noticed a drastic difference in the 4 pimples that were on my cheek. Is not only helping with preventing but also clearing up marks from older ones.

Been using this for about 2 months consistently now, and I really think it made a difference. My acne scars have improved a lotttt and are fading quickly. It’s also made my acne lessen and overall helped my skin. I have eczema and super sensitive skin, and it didn’t burn or anything! Just don’t use with other actives.
Another gentle product that works

I used the skinceuticals blemish and age defense, switched to this and like it more. I switched from skinceutical to this and another brand and I’ve been seeing better results in two months then I have seen in when using the expensive stuff. My husband even noticed!

I like how light this is. I just started using it so, I can't really tell if it's working great or not. I haven't seen any new pimples, so there is that.
literally the best!!!!

Caused little whiteheads - not purging

Thumbs down graphic, would not recommend
Mackenzie - 1 year ago, Verified purchaser
I started breaking out after using this serum. I thought I was just purging and patiently waited a full 12 weeks but unfortunately I really haven’t had much improvement. I think it did help with some closed comedones on my chin but it also seemed to clog my pores and caused little whiteheads all over. I have kept everything else in my routine the same so I’m sure it must be this serum. I will not be using this anymore!
Breaks up make up

Megs - 1 year ago, Verified purchaser
It seems to work okay, I was looking for a replacement for some other brands I like at a better price point with less plastic in the packaging, but it breaks up my makeup. I tried it with several foundation/tint products and they all wound up patchy and floating like weird lily pads after a couple hours when I used this. A product like this, for me, needs to work as a layer, so I don’t recommend it.
This works for my 40 y/o hormonal skin.

Finally! It's back at Target again! It was either out of stock or no longer sold here for a while, but it's back and I'm glad because I can't find it anywhere else. Even Amazon stopped selling it. This is the one face product I really like because it works for me. I can't find anything else like it so when it doesn't show up in my search on target I freak out a little. I really like this stuff, it keeps acne away. Been using for about a year and a half now.

I have purchased this product last year and I'm glad I did, because my skin loves it and it treats my acne. I recommend it for oily acne prone skin.

I had purchased this product hoping to reduce some dark spots and battle acne. The serum works and feels very nice. Unfortunately, it was extremely drying on my skin. I would be cautious if your skin is sensitive.
Excellent!

Great! I have dry, mature skin that gets flaky during the winter months. This stuff eats up the dry skin flakes and leaves my skin looking flawless. I apply this under my regular moisturizer.
Highly recommend

My acne has been crazy bad since I’ve had my two sons. I needed a new skin care routine and decided to use this as an acne treatment. It’s amazing! My skin cleared up after using it frequently and it makes my skin glow! I only use this serum with sometimes lotion (different lotions until I find the one I like). I use it before bed, after a shower. (: would recommend trying.
Finally!

I deal with hormonal acne. Been on Tret off and on for years. The product has helped decrease my breakouts significantly!! I’ve been using for about a month, while there was some purging in the beginning, it really helps keep my break outs at bay! I use at night and in the morning, haven’t had a lot of dryness either! I’m obsessed with naturium and have started purchasing more products into my skin care regimen.
It my favorite!

I cannot recommend this serum enough. Don't waste your money on expensive SA...this stuff's the bomb. Only complaint: bottle is kind of hard to open
