About this product

This targeted pore serum combines 0.5% salicylic acid (BHA) with 73% heartleaf extract to exfoliate inside pores, dissolve sebum plugs, and tighten enlarged pores over time. Unlike many BHA products, the heartleaf counteracts the potential dryness and irritation of salicylic acid, making this suitable even for sensitive-combination skin. Use morning or evening after toner.

In a nutshell

Best for oily, combination, sensitive skin looking to address enlarged pores, blackheads, excess oil โ€” with a focus on pore control.

Dermatologist Note

The combination of salicylic acid (BHA) with heartleaf creates a dual exfoliating and soothing approach โ€” the BHA dissolves pore-clogging sebum while the heartleaf calms any resulting inflammation. The pH of ~4.0 ensures the BHA remains in its active form.

Based on published clinical literature and dermatological research.
