The Sostar Mornin' Glow Salicylic Acid Face Wash 150ml is a foaming face wash gel for oily skin prone to acne. It combines two well-known ingredients, salicylic acid and panthenol, to make cleansing effective without leaving the skin irritated.
It is the cleansing step of the Mornin' Glow series and leaves the face clean, fresh and radiant.
Salicylic acid belongs to the beta hydroxy acids (BHA). Its uniqueness compared to other acids, such as glycolic, is that it dissolves in fats. This allows it to reach the inside of the pores, where sebum and dead cells accumulate and form black spots.
Its history is linked to the bark of the willow tree, which has been known since ancient times. Today, it is one of the most common ingredients in products for oily skin. In a cleansing gel, the contact with the skin is short, making it a gentle introduction to acids for those who have not tried them.
Panthenol, known as provitamin B5, is one of the most beloved ingredients in dermatology for its moisturizing and soothing properties. We often find it in products for very dry or distressed skin.
The formula is paraben-free and suitable for vegans. According to the manufacturer, it can also be used during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
For oily and combination skin with shine, enlarged pores, black spots and acne-prone. For teenagers and adults who need a daily cleansing gel targeted at oiliness, without the pulling sensation that some harsher cleansers leave. In severe acne, dermatologist guidance remains the best choice.
A common mistake with oily skin is excessive cleansing, with very hot water or multiple washes a day. This can leave the skin distressed and not improve the shine problem. Two cleansings a day, morning and evening, with a gel containing soothing ingredients like panthenol, are usually sufficient. After cleansing, the skin still needs hydration, ideally with a light, non-greasy texture.
Wet the face with lukewarm water. Foam a small amount in the palms and massage in circular motions on the face, avoiding the eye area. Rinse thoroughly and pat dry. Use morning and/or evening and follow up with a light moisturizer. Follow the instructions on the packaging.
