If you have sensitive skin and light acne, over applying can dry out and exacerbate the problems you already have. Salicylic  Acid Salicylic Acid is an organic compound naturally found in plants. Salicylic Acid is primarily known as an ingredient in acne treatments, but is also effective in reducing and eliminating calluses, eczema, psoriasis and warts. Salicylic Acid works by promoting the shedding of damaged skin cells and promoting the growth of new ones.  Salicylic Acid is so successful at as an acne treatment because it breaks down acne while increasing skin exfoliation.
