The Minimalist 2% Salicylic Acid Serum is one of the best-selling skincare products in India for a reason. Salicylic acid (BHA) is a gold-standard ingredient for acne-prone skin. It penetrates deep into pores to dissolve excess sebum, dead skin cells, and debris that cause blackheads, whiteheads, and breakouts.

This serum from Minimalist pairs salicylic acid with LHA (capryloyl salicylic acid) for enhanced penetration without irritation. It also contains zinc PCA to control oil production throughout the day.
