Common Questions
- How is this different from the Red (Maximum) box? The Blue box contains a lower concentration of Salicylic Acid (0.5% vs. 2.0%) and includes skin-soothing ingredients, making it ideal for mild acne or easily irritated skin.
- Can I use this as a daily toner? Yes. Its gentle nature makes it an excellent daily exfoliating step to prevent blackheads and maintain skin clarity.
- Is it safe for dry skin? Yes. Because it is alcohol-free and enriched with Aloe, it cleanses without stripping the skin of its natural moisture.
