Does this replace salicylic acid in a skincare routine or is an added step?
 - Asked by Allison
 - Official Answer By The Ordinary - Brand EngageHi there! We don't recommend combining Direct Acids with other Direct Acids as this may disrupt the skin barrier that can lead to signs of irritation. If you wish to combine both products into a regimen, we recommend using them on alternate days and/or nights and waiting until your skin has adjusted to one before introducing another.Was this answer helpful to you

Something has changed
I will not be purchasing this brand again because when the bottle changed this product started causing breaks-outs. When it was in the clear bottle i never had a problem.
Very effective
This product is very effective in controlling my redness. It is also gentle on the skin.
WOW
Love this product, noticed results almost immediately. I have cystic acne/hormonal acne and this product has helped with blemishes and post acne dark spots. I have tried numerous products for acne and this has been the most helpful so far. I also have sensitive skin and havent noticed any irritation in the 2 weeks ive been using this product. My skin has also felt softer/smoother. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!
Recommended by my Derm
When a dermatologist recommends this by name, you know it's a good choice. One of the only products I can use for acne-prone skin while trying to conceive. My skin looks miles better from a couple of years ago. And a great price!
I would buy this product again
Helps with evening skin tone blemishes and pores
