Botanic Tree Glycolic Acid Face Wash - 10% Glycolic & Salicylic Acid, 6 fl oz (2-Pack) for Exfoliating, Balancing Skin

Botanic Tree Glycolic Acid Face Wash is a dual-action facial cleanser with 10% glycolic acid and salicylic acid formulated to exfoliate, help unclog pores, and improve skin texture without over-drying.

Designed as both a daily cleanser and a treatment-style exfoliant, this face wash pairs glycolic acid (an AHA) with salicylic acid (a BHA) to remove dead skin cells, address excess oil, and support a smoother-looking complexion. The formula also includes bamboo, shea butter, and tea tree extract for conditioning and balancing. Packaged in a convenient 6 fl. oz bottle and sold as a two-pack, it’s intended for use within a broader skin-care routine multiple times per week.

How quickly will I see changes in my skin’s texture?

Expect to notice improved smoothness and fewer visible dead skin flakes within about one week with consistent use, though results vary by skin type and condition. Gentle daily cleansing combined with 2–5 weekly treatment washes speeds visible texture improvement while avoiding overt irritation.

• 10% glycolic acid promotes surface exfoliation for smoother skin.
• Salicylic acid penetrates pores to help reduce buildup and shine.
• Use 2–5 times weekly depending on tolerance and sensitivity.
• Pair with sunscreen during daytime to protect newly exposed skin layers.

Is this face wash suitable for acne-prone or oily skin?

This cleanser is formulated to address excess oil and breakouts by combining an AHA and a BHA, which work together to clear pore-clogging debris and refine surface texture. It’s gentle enough for many who experience acne or oiliness, but patch testing is recommended for sensitive complexions.

• Salicylic acid helps exfoliate inside pores to reduce blackheads and whiteheads.
• Glycolic acid smooths the skin surface and can minimize the appearance of pores.
• Tea tree extract offers balancing, naturally-derived support for blemish-prone skin.
• Sulfate-free formula reduces the risk of stripping natural oils.

How should I use this cleanser safely in my routine?

Use as a replacement for your regular face wash or as a targeted exfoliating cleanse 2–5 times per week depending on tolerance. Apply to damp skin, massage gently to create lather, then rinse thoroughly; follow with moisturizer and daytime SPF to protect freshly exfoliated skin.

• Apply to damp face, massage briefly, then rinse with lukewarm water.
• Start with 2 times per week, increasing frequency if skin tolerates it.
• Avoid combining with other strong exfoliants or retinoids without clinician guidance.
• Always use broad-spectrum sunscreen after daytime exfoliation.

What extras are in the formula and what do they do?

Botanic Tree’s formula adds bamboo, shea butter, and tea tree extract to support conditioning, comfort, and a clearer appearance. These additional ingredients help the cleanser feel nourishing while the acids perform resurfacing and pore-clearing actions.

• Bamboo delivers gentle polishing and mineral-rich support for texture.
• Shea butter adds moisturizing, non-greasy slip to reduce tightness.
• Tea tree extract provides plant-derived balancing benefits for blemish-prone skin.
• Free of sulfates and cruelty-free—made in the USA.

Who is this for: Botanic Tree Glycolic Acid Face Wash is aimed at adults and older teens seeking a stronger over-the-counter exfoliating cleanser to improve skin texture, manage oiliness, and reduce the appearance of pores and breakouts. It’s suitable for those comfortable using acids in their routine and who can commit to sun protection after exfoliation. If you have very sensitive or compromised skin, consult a dermatologist or patch-test before regular use.
