UNCLOG – CALM – CLARIFY – 100% VEGAN

Gentle exfoliant with salicylic acid for acne-prone skin. Combat breakouts and reveal clearer skin with Unclogging Water, a clarifying toner formulated to address the root causes of acne: clogged pores, excess oil, and breakout-causing bacteria. This gentle exfoliant with 2% salicylic acid, niacinamide, and zinc sulfate works to visibly reduce blemishes, refine skin texture, and fade post-acne marks — without irritation or dryness.

How it works:

Deep pore exfoliation
Salicylic acid (BHA) dissolves oil and impurities inside the pores, helping to unclog congestion and prevent future breakouts.

Clarifying + oil-regulating care
Niacinamide minimizes the look of pores and spots, balances sebum production, and strengthens the skin barrier — ideal for oily or blemish-prone skin.

Redness and blemish control
Zinc sulfate helps reduce inflammation, calm pimples, and support the skin’s natural defenses against acne-causing bacteria.

With consistent use, skin appears clearer, more even-toned, and less prone to acne scars or visible irritation.

WHAT MAKES IT SO EFFECTIVE?

Salicylic acid 2% is a gold-standard topical exfoliant that penetrates deep into the pores to dissolve oil, dead skin cells, and debris — effectively clearing clogged pores, blackheads, and whiteheads. Unlike AHAs, salicylic acid works inside the pore lining, making it one of the most effective ingredients for acne-prone and oily skin.

Recognized by the U.S. FDA as an over-the-counter acne treatment, 2% salicylic acid is the highest non-prescription strength available. This gentle exfoliant not only helps prevent and treat pimples, but also calms red, irritated skin — delivering visible results without causing excessive dryness or peeling.

A multi-tasking ingredient ideal for sensitive and acne-prone skin, topical niacinamide helps refine uneven skin tone, minimize the appearance of enlarged pores, and strengthen the skin barrier. It supports balanced oil production, making it especially beneficial for oily or combination skin, without the risk of dryness or irritation.

With consistent use, niacinamide visibly fades post-acne marks, reduces spots and redness, and promotes a clearer, more even complexion.

Known for its antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties, zinc sulfate plays a crucial role in controlling acne-related bacteria, calming active breakouts, and reducing visible redness and irritation. It supports skin healing and helps alleviate the discomfort associated with seborrheic dermatitis, flare-ups, and inflammatory acne lesions.

Combined with salicylic acid, it offers a gentle yet effective solution to persistent breakouts.

HOW TO USE

Apply only in the evening, over the face and neck, with a cotton pad or simply with the palm of the hand, after the usual cleansing and before Smart Cream Mat. Do not rinse after application.

For best tolerance, begin applying every other night, working up to a nightly frequency after one or two weeks. 

Should you feel too much sensitivity on a nightly basis, you can scale back and simply use it every other night or less, according to tolerance.
