Salicylic Acid, High Purity, Powder, 99.5min.%, 100 Grams

Product quality is good

Very good pure salicylic acid. However I can’t say I would recommend its use for anything other than chemistry

I use this for making a toenail fungus-killing solution. The product has the proper strength and seems to be pure - no issues at all with that. As a reminder, practice safety when you're working with this product, and buy a proper scale for measuring.

Good

For educational purpose - safety. Great product! An important consideration in your formulation is adjusting the pH, regardless of the solvent. Salycilic acid works best between a pH of 3 - 5. This can be accomplished by either using distilled white vinegar or citric acid. Citric acid not only adjust the pH of your formulation, it also helps prevent salicylic acid powder from precipitating back into crystals, while in solution. Warm both solvent and salicylic acid powder, and then add the citric acid, for a stable and ACTIVE product. NOTE ACTIVE: If you are considered adjusting the pH of your formulation, you may also want to change/lower the concentration of your product. A 2% solution at a pH between 3 - 5 is far more ACTIVE / "stronger" than a solution at a higher pH. If you are new to active ingredients, your skin requires time to build "tolerance." Do NOT risk it! Don't sensitize your skin. Safety first... As always, work in a clean, and well ventilated area, minimize distractions. When appropriate, use goggles, masks, and gloves. What's the point of looking good, when your health is compromised. Cheers!

I ordered this to start making my own daily microexfoliant for my face. It is fantastic. But keep in mind you need to follow the mixing ratios because it is potent. I have been using my own mixture for a facial microexfoliant for two weeks now and my pores are smaller and my skin is smoother.
