- Q
Can I use this with a cleanser that already has Salicylic Acid in it? Will both overdo?
 - Asked by Sweetsam
 - Official Answer By La Roche-Posay - BEHello there! Using our Effaclar Clarifying Solution, which contains salicylic acid, with a cleanser that also contains salicylic acid could potentially be too much for some skin types. Overdoing it with salicylic acid can lead to dryness, irritation, and redness. It's generally recommended to incorporate one salicylic acid product into your routine at a time, especially when starting. You could alternate between the two products, using the salicylic acid cleanser in the morning and the Effaclar solution in the evening, or vice-versa. This way, you can benefit from the ingredient without over-exfoliating your skin. Observe how your skin reacts and adjust your routine accordingly. If you experience any dryness or irritation, reduce the frequency of use or switch to a gentler cleanser without salicylic acid. A dermatologist can provide personalized advice based on your skin type and concerns.Was this answer helpful to you

Will this fight breakouts and fade the look of post-acne marks? I've been looking for an alternative to Neutrogena's Rapid Clear 2-in-1 Fight and Fade Toner.

When you almost give up.
I developed horrendous menopausal acne and had tried a 100 and one options. I recently cleaned out my bathroom cabinets and got rid of at least 30 useless products. Why were they useless? Mostly because I am very sensitive - and they contained harsh products - so I tried charcoal and banana skin and...

Might be breaking me out
As far as chemical exfoliants go, this stuff is very well tolerated by my sensitive skin (no burning, tingling, or redness.) Because of this I was sooo happy and thought I'd *finally* found a toner I can tolerate. However, I was using this on my chest, neck, and face maybe 2-3 times a week and I not...

My skin care routine is quite simple (cleanser, toner, a serum occasionally, moisturizer, and sunscreen) so I don't use anything to exfoliate my face. I just started using this clarifying toner and it's cleared up so much texture already. I love it!
Noticeable improvement.

I love using this new product in my facial routine. Helps clear my pores and keeps them clean. Will use it for a long time.
Wasn't good for me
Let me start off by saying I don't even have sensitive skin. I used it for 4 weeks, no change. This product dried my face out so bad. I now have dry patches on my face and my face is now flaky. Also have tiny bumps all over my forehead and cheeks. The last week that I used it I started getting a buring sensation. Im not saying its a bad product but it sure wasn't for me.
It works but…
I've always struggled with acne and i bought this toner along with the face wash and spot treatment, it definitley cleared my acne but it's NOT for sensitive skin. I used it for half a year and once my acne cleared up I stopped using it. I used it again and I felt my face BURNING while i went to sleep. It messed with my skin barrier baddd. I thought it was the face wash or spot treatment from the effaclar line but it turned out to be the toner.
Yay

I literally used this product for only like 3 days and I noticed that my acne reduced a bit. I'm so happy! But different people have different skin. I just wanna say that it worked great for me.
