Exposed Skin Care Clear Pore Serum 1% Salicylic Acid for Sensitive & Oily Skin — Gentle, Non-Irritating Pore Refining Gel

Exposed Skin Care Clear Pore Serum is a lightweight, non-irritating 1% salicylic acid gel that helps unclog pores, reduce excess oil, and visibly minimize blackheads for sensitive and oily skin.

This gentle, fragrance-free formula blends salicylic acid with botanicals like green tea and licorice root to target pore-clogging oil and impurities without harsh irritation. Designed as a daily pore-refining step, the serum absorbs quickly, leaving a silky finish rather than a greasy residue. It’s cruelty-free, paraben-free, and crafted to work with skin that tends toward sensitivity or acne-prone oiliness.

How quickly will I see fewer blackheads and smaller pores?

Results depend on individual skin and consistency, but many users notice clearer-looking pores and reduced blackhead appearance within a few weeks of nightly use. The 1% salicylic acid works over time to dissolve oil and clear follicular buildup while soothing botanicals support skin barrier balance.

• Use nightly after cleansing for best cumulative results
• Visible reduction in surface congestion typically within 2–6 weeks
• Regular use helps prevent recurrence of new blackheads

Is this serum safe for sensitive or combination skin types?

Yes — the formula is fragrance-free, non-comedogenic, and formulated to limit irritation while still offering exfoliating action. The lower 1% salicylic acid concentration helps reduce the chance of dryness or redness commonly seen with stronger treatments.

• Gentle 1% BHA concentration suited for sensitivity
• Soothing green tea and licorice root extracts help calm skin
• Non-irritating gel texture that layers well under moisturizers

How should I incorporate this serum into my skincare routine?

Apply the Clear Pore Serum after cleansing and toning, before heavier creams or oils. Start with every-other-night applications if you’re new to salicylic acid, then progress to nightly use as tolerated. Always follow with SPF in the morning if using acids overnight.

• Cleanse thoroughly, pat skin dry, then dispense a pea-sized amount
• Gently smooth across T-zone and areas with congestion
• Layer moisturizer after absorption; use sunscreen during daytime

What visible benefits can I expect besides fewer blackheads?

Beyond clearing pore congestion, the serum helps control shine, refines skin texture, and supports a more even-looking complexion. Because it targets oil at the follicle level, it also helps reduce the formation of future whiteheads and blackheads without aggressive peeling.

• Reduced excess oil and shininess throughout the day
• Smoother skin texture and a more refined pore appearance
• Minimized risk of post-inflammatory marks from harsh exfoliation

Who is this for: Exposed Skin Care Clear Pore Serum is ideal for people with oily, combination, or acne-prone skin who want a gentle, everyday BHA treatment. It’s especially suited for those with sensitive skin who need a lower-strength salicylic acid option that still targets blackheads, minimizes pores, and reduces excess oil without fragrance, parabens, or animal testing.
