Saslic DS is a medicated foaming face wash containing salicylic acid, designed specifically for oily and acne-prone skin. It works as a daily cleanser that not only removes dirt, oil, and makeup but also actively treats and prevents acne by dissolving the dead cell buildup inside pores that causes blackheads, whiteheads, and breakouts. Unlike standard face washes that simply cleanse the surface, Saslic DS delivers active treatment with every wash.
Salicylic acid is a beta-hydroxy acid (BHA) that is oil-soluble, meaning it can penetrate into oily pores to dissolve buildup from the inside out. This makes it a well-suited cleansing active for people with oily, acne-prone, or combination skin.
| Medicated Acne Cleanser | Treats acne while you wash. Salicylic acid dissolves pore-clogging debris with every use. |
| Oil Control | Foaming formula removes excess oil without stripping the skin completely dry. |
| Gentle Daily Use | Mild enough for twice-daily cleansing. Does not over-dry when used as directed. |
| Blackhead Prevention | Penetrates into pores to dissolve the buildup that creates blackheads and whiteheads. |
| Prepares Skin for Treatments | Clean, residue-free skin allows your evening treatments (like tretinoin or azelaic acid) to absorb and work more effectively. |
| Active Ingredient | Salicylic Acid |
| Form | Foaming face wash |
| Skin Types | Oily, combination, acne-prone |
| Suitable For | Daily cleansing, acne-prone skin, blackheads, oily skin, pre-treatment prep |
Wet your face. Apply a small amount of Saslic DS and work into a gentle lather. Massage over the face for 30–60 seconds, avoiding the eyes. Rinse thoroughly with water. Pat dry. Use once or twice daily (morning and/or evening).
For a complete acne routine, use Saslic DS as your cleanser, then apply Adapalene Gel or Tretinoin 0.05% in the evening after your skin is completely dry.
Q: Can I use this with tretinoin?
A: Yes. Use Saslic DS as your evening cleanser, wait 20–30 minutes for skin to dry, then apply your tretinoin. The salicylic acid in the wash preps pores for better tretinoin penetration.
Q: Is this too harsh for sensitive skin?
A: If you have sensitive skin, start with once-daily use. If well tolerated, you can increase to twice daily. If you experience excessive dryness, alternate with a gentle non-medicated cleanser.
Q: Does this replace my acne treatment?
A: Saslic DS is a cleanser, not a leave-on treatment. It supports your acne routine but does not replace dedicated treatments like tretinoin, adapalene, or azelaic acid.
Avoid contact with eyes. If irritation occurs, reduce to once daily or discontinue. For external use only.
