The Ordinary Salicylic Acid 0.5% Body Serum

Product Overview:

The Ordinary Salicylic Acid 0.5% Body Serum is a lightweight, fast-absorbing treatment designed to gently exfoliate and smooth the skin on the body. Formulated with 0.5% salicylic acid (BHA), this serum targets rough, bumpy skin and helps clear clogged pores, making it especially effective for concerns like keratosis pilaris, body acne, and uneven texture. Enriched with hydrating and soothing ingredients, it leaves the skin visibly clearer, smoother, and more even-toned without causing irritation.
