Description
Size: 15 mL / 30 mL
Skin Types: Normal, Combination, Oily
Skin Concerns: Blemish-prone and congested skin, blackheads and clogged pores, excess oil and enlarged pores, rough, uneven texture, oily and combination skin, younger skin managing congestion
NeoGenesis Salicylic Acid Gel delivers 2% pure salicylic acid, the maximum over-the-counter strength, in a hydrating gel base. Salicylic acid exfoliates inside the pore, dissolving the excess oil and dead skin cell buildup that leads to blackheads, whiteheads and breakouts, and as a keratolytic it loosens surface buildup to refine rough texture. Unlike salt forms of the acid, this gel is formulated to keep irritation to a minimum.
Where many salicylic acid products aim only to dry out blemishes, NeoGenesis built this one to clear congestion while respecting the skin's moisture balance, so dryness and barrier stress stay low. It is designed to follow an S2RM serum: after cleansing and Recovery or Skin Serum, apply one pump, let it absorb, then moisturize. Use sunscreen daily, since it may increase sun sensitivity. Available in 15 mL and 30 mL.

Very soothing after microneedling. Apply liberally to calm any itching!
Favorite cleanser. I have purchased it 4 times already and I tried to switch to another brand and I always end up going back to this one. I have very sensitive skin and my pores get clogged very easily. This cream cleanser is soothing and does an excellent job cleansing my face. I use it in the morning and as a second cleanse at time. A little bit goes a long way and although it doesn’t have a scent, the experience of washing your face with it is so pleasant and satisfying. I am done trying new cleansers.
Favorite SPF. I have tried so many different SPF and brands. They would be too greasy and/or sting my eyes after a few hours and/or irritate my sensitive skin and/or clog my pores. I finally found the one! Is it lightweight, non greasy, protects very well, sweat resistant, doesn’t irritate my skin or clog my pores. On top of that a little bit goes a long way. This is my third bottle and my quest for the best SPF for my skin is finally over.
Très bien marché bien et j’achèterais surement un autre
I love this product, the Vivier Sheer SPF30 Mineral tinted sunscreen. I love the creamy easy to apply non scented cream that just glides and covers light skin imperfections. I will definitely re-order again.
I love this product!Used 0.3 before and increased to 0.5 with sude effects.
This cleanser polish is a povely
I’ve been using this product for a year and it’s the only thing that’s worked for my face to help it heal and clear up my skin. I’ve been trying a lot of other products and this one works! Highly recommend!
Very nice, i love this product
Beautiful packaging and looks very high end. I've been using for 2 weeks now and its easy to use. I like how it automatically turns off in 10 mins.
The perfect complement to my pigment control routine - with hydroquinone part of the year, and office laser treatments. This product is excellent, and works well layering. No pilling!
Love this formula! 10/10 great for mature skin
Love this brand already but this was my first time trying these products. A great deal getting them in this kit! My fave is the exfoliating polish, it is amazing! Feels so invigorating, and after my skin feels so soft and fresh.
Excellent product.face mask protection. I visited to Cusco where there is a very high altitude so that the sun radiation is extremely intense. The mask protection worked well!!
I’ve been using this for almost a decade! Love it!

Salicylic Acid Gel: maximum-strength pore clearing, minimum dryness
NeoGenesis Salicylic Acid Gel delivers 2% pure salicylic acid, the maximum over-the-counter strength, in a hydrating gel base. Salicylic acid is oil-soluble, so it exfoliates inside the pore, dissolving the excess sebum and dead skin cell buildup that leads to blackheads, whiteheads and breakouts. As a keratolytic exfoliant it also loosens surface buildup, which is how it refines rough, uneven texture and improves the appearance of enlarged pores and overall clarity with regular use.
The difference is in the base. Many salicylic acid products focus on drying out blemishes and stripping oil; NeoGenesis formulates this gel with hydrating support so it clears congestion while respecting the skin's moisture balance, and unlike salt forms of the acid it keeps irritation and barrier stress to a minimum. It is designed to follow an S2RM serum such as Recovery or Skin Serum, then moisturizer. Use sunscreen daily, since it may increase skin sensitivity to the sun.
2% pure salicylic acid
The maximum over-the-counter strength, exfoliating inside the pore where blackheads and breakouts start.
Hydrating gel, not a drying one
Formulated with hydrating support to balance oil and clear buildup without the tightness of typical blemish products.
Refines texture and pores
A keratolytic exfoliant that loosens dead skin cells for smoother skin and a less visible pore.
Built to follow S2RM
Applied after Recovery or Skin Serum and before moisturizer, so exfoliation and support work together.
Key Ingredients & How They Work
The actives that drive 2% pure salicylic acid in a hydrating gel: clears pores and breakouts without stripping. — and what each one does for your skin.
Inside the pore
Salicylic acid is a beta hydroxy acid that penetrates pores to exfoliate, removing the excess sebum and dead skin cell buildup that can lead to blackheads, whiteheads and breakouts.
Keratolytic action
On the surface it loosens and removes dead skin cells, reducing clogged pores and buildup. Over time this is what smooths rough texture and refines the look of enlarged pores.
Pure acid versus salt forms
NeoGenesis uses pure salicylic acid rather than a salt form, in a hydrating gel that minimizes the irritation and dryness commonly associated with blemish-focused products.
Moisture balance
Propanediol hydrates and enhances absorption and performance, so the gel balances oil without over-drying and without sacrificing barrier integrity.

2% pure salicylic acid in a hydrating gel: clears pores and breakouts without stripping.: Frequently Asked Questions
What does 2% salicylic acid do for skin?
Salicylic acid dissolves the excess oil and debris that clog pores and lead to blackheads and blemishes, while improving the appearance of texture, enlarged pores and overall clarity. NeoGenesis Salicylic Acid Gel delivers it at 2%, the maximum over-the-counter strength, in a hydrating gel base.
Is NeoGenesis Salicylic Acid Gel good for breakouts and blackheads?
Yes. The 2% salicylic acid unclogs pores by dissolving the excess oil and dead skin cell buildup that contribute to blackheads, whiteheads and breakouts. With consistent use as part of a complete routine, NeoGenesis says it helps reduce the appearance of blackheads, whiteheads, excess oil and uneven texture.
Will it dry out my skin?
It is designed not to. Unlike many salicylic acid products that focus on drying out blemishes and removing oil, this gel is formulated with hydrating support and uses pure salicylic acid rather than a salt form, so it clears congestion while respecting the skin's moisture balance and barrier integrity.
How do I use Salicylic Acid Gel in my routine?
Cleanse, apply your S2RM serum (Recovery or Skin Serum), then apply one pump of Salicylic Acid Gel to the face and let it absorb fully. Follow with moisturizer, and use sunscreen every day because the product may increase your skin's sensitivity to the sun.
Who is NeoGenesis Salicylic Acid Gel for?
It is ideal for anyone concerned with clogged pores, blackheads, excess oil, rough texture, enlarged pores or blemish-prone skin. NeoGenesis calls it an excellent choice for younger skin managing congestion, and skincare professionals recommend it because it improves these concerns without sacrificing moisture levels or barrier integrity.
Salicylic Acid Gel or Mandelic Acid 8%: which should I choose?
Both follow an S2RM serum. Salicylic Acid Gel is the oil-soluble choice for congestion, blackheads and excess oil, since it works inside the pore. Mandelic Acid 8% is a gentler alpha hydroxy acid for uneven tone, dullness, post-blemish marks and early signs of aging, and NeoGenesis recommends it for dry, mature or sensitive skin.
Are there before and after photos for Salicylic Acid Gel?
Yes. NeoGenesis publishes before and after case photos from its professional partners, and a selection that used Salicylic Acid Gel is shown above with every product in the routine listed in the caption. Individual results vary.
