Panthenol and salicylic acid: work well together

Work well together

Use salicylic acid first to clear pores, then apply panthenol to restore moisture, because hydrating ingredients balance out the drying effects of exfoliants. Salicylic acid sweeps away dead skin and excess oil, while panthenol soothes the skin and puts moisture back. If your skin feels too dry or irritated, you can switch to a gentler strength or leave more time between applying the two products.
