Product Information

Full details

The QRxLabs Glycolic/Salicylic Acid 10/2 Acne Control Pads are designed for individuals struggling with persistent acne, excess oil, or clogged pores who seek a professional-grade exfoliation treatment at home. By combining 10% Glycolic Acid with 2% Salicylic Acid, these pads effectively unclog pores and improve skin texture; however, users with highly sensitive skin should exercise caution, as the high concentration of active acids may cause initial irritation or dryness if overused.

FAQs

Can I use these pads every day?

Yes, once your skin has built up a tolerance, you can use them daily. However, start with a few times a week to assess how your skin reacts.

Should I wash my face after using the pad?

No, the solution is designed to be left on the skin to allow the active ingredients to penetrate. Do not rinse the product off.

Can I use this on my body?

Yes, these pads are effective for treating acne on the back, shoulders, or chest.

Is this product vegan?

QRxLabs focuses on cruelty-free practices, but please check the specific product packaging for the most current ingredient sourcing information.

Will this help with dark spots?

The glycolic acid content helps with cell turnover, which can gradually improve the appearance of post-acne marks and minor discoloration.

Can I use this if I am pregnant?

It is generally recommended to consult with your physician before using any products containing salicylic acid during pregnancy.

Troubleshooting

Severe stinging or redness upon application

Immediately rinse with cool water. Reduce usage frequency to once or twice a week, or use on alternating nights.

Excessive skin dryness or flaking

Apply a gentle, non-comedogenic moisturizer immediately after the skin is dry from the treatment to lock in hydration.

Pads are dry upon opening

Ensure the lid is pressed firmly shut after each use. If the pads are dry, they have likely been exposed to air for too long and should be replaced.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-potency acid combination effectively targets both surface texture and deep-pore congestion
  • Pre-soaked pad format allows for easy, mess-free application
  • Contains antioxidants like Vitamin C and E to protect and brighten skin
  • Includes soothing botanical extracts to counteract potential irritation
  • Convenient 50-count container suitable for consistent treatment cycles

Cons

  • High acid concentrations can cause significant irritation for sensitive skin types
  • May lead to increased sun sensitivity requiring strict daily SPF usage
  • Not suitable for individuals with an allergy to salicylates or aspirin
  • May cause purging or initial breakouts as deep congestion is brought to the surface

Setup, Compatibility & Care

  • Introduction Period: If you are new to glycolic or salicylic acid products, start by using the pads only three times a week to allow your skin barrier to acclimate.
  • Sun Protection: Because alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs) increase sun sensitivity, you must apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher every morning.
  • Storage: Keep the container tightly sealed after every use to prevent the pads from drying out. Store in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight.
  • Avoid Combinations: Do not use these pads in the same routine as other potent actives like retinol or physical scrubs, as this may lead to excessive irritation or compromised skin health.
