Overview

Salicylic acid and walnut shell powder work together here, one clearing pores while the other buffs away residue. Alba Botanica Acnedote Maximum Strength is an oil free face and body scrub for acne prone skin.

Acne treatment and exfoliation in a single wash suits breakout prone face, chest and back skin. The vegetarian, oil free formula leaves out parabens and synthetic fragrance. Walnut grains can feel harsh on sensitive or inflamed skin.

Who it's for

Teens and adults with oily, acne prone skin get treatment and exfoliation in one step. People with very dry or reactive skin should choose a gentler cleanser.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Medicated acne treatment
  • Face and body use
  • Oil free formula
  • No synthetic fragrance
Cons
  • Walnut grains can irritate
  • Can dry sensitive skin
  • Not for daily use on dry skin

Performance notes

Salicylic acid dissolves oil inside pores, and contact time matters more than scrubbing force. Walnut shell powder lifts surface buildup. Using it too often can strip moisture, so a light moisturizer helps.
