Salicylic acid and linoleic acid: work well together

Work well together

Use salicylic acid first, then linoleic acid, because linoleic acid helps soothe dryness caused by the exfoliant. Salicylic acid clears out pores while linoleic acid puts back lost moisture to keep skin calm and soft. If skin feels dry, try using them less often or on alternate nights.
