You wash your face twice a day, yet by afternoon your forehead is shiny, your nose is full of blackheads and a new pimple is on its way. Sound familiar?

In Pakistan’s heat and humidity, oily skin and clogged pores are two of the most common skin worries. A salicylic acid face wash is one of the simplest ways to deal with both, because it cleans the surface and works inside the pore at the same time. And the best part: Rossia’s is gentle enough to be your everyday cleanser, whatever your skin type.

Quick answer: Rossia 2% Salicylic Acid Face Wash is a gentle daily cleanser for all skin types, including dry and sensitive skin. It helps remove excess oil and dead skin from inside your pores, which is why it is a go-to for acne-prone and oily skin. If your skin is sensitive, do a patch test first.

What is a salicylic acid face wash?

Salicylic acid is a BHA (beta hydroxy acid). Unlike water-based ingredients, it is oil-soluble, so it can travel into the pore lining and help clear out the oil and dead cells that cause blackheads, whiteheads and breakouts.

In a face wash, it works while you cleanse, and you rinse it off. That makes it a comfortable first step for anyone starting with acne-fighting ingredients.

Because it solves a problem most people have, at a price that is easy to try. It is one of our best-selling products, with 114 customer reviews on our website. It works as a daily cleanser for all skin types, from oily and acne-prone to dry and sensitive, and fits easily into a morning or night routine.
