Share information about your product.

Stridex Single-Step Acne Control Pads deliver 1% salicylic acid on textured pads — and crucially, they are completely alcohol-free, which is why they treat acne without the burn most medicated pads deliver. 55 pads, with vitamins C and E.

🎯 What It Does

• Unclogs pores — dissolves deep-down oil and removes what cleansers leave behind
• Clears existing pimples — salicylic acid treats acne and eliminates blackheads
• Prevents new breakouts — regular use stops them before they start
• Contains no alcohol — effectiveness without the sting
• Adds vitamin support — vitamins C and E promote healthy skin
• Applies in one step — textured pads that cleanse and treat together

🔬 Key Ingredients

• Salicylic Acid 1.0% (active) — acne medication that unclogs pores
• Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate (Vitamin C) — supports skin health
• Tocopheryl Acetate (Vitamin E) — antioxidant support

📋 How to Use

1. Cleanse the skin thoroughly first.
2. Wipe the pad over the entire affected area, one to three times daily.
3. Start with one application daily, increasing gradually. Reduce to once a day or every other day if dryness or peeling occurs.
4. Do not leave the pad on the skin for an extended period.

Allergy alert: do not use if you have a known allergy to salicylic acid. Using other topical acne medications at the same time may increase dryness or irritation — use only one unless directed by a doctor. Keep away from eyes, lips and other mucous membranes. For external use only. Contains fragrance and menthol.
