A gel cleanser formulated with salicylic acid and zinc to target blemishes and excess oil. It uses witch hazel and willow bark extract to provide astringent and soothing benefits during the cleansing process.

The inclusion of Zinc PCA helps manage midday shine, making it a practical morning step for oily or combination types.
