Botanic Tree 10% Glycolic Acid Face Wash 6 oz

Overview

A 6 fl oz glycolic acid facial cleanser and scrub from Botanic Tree, combining 10% glycolic acid with salicylic acid to exfoliate and target breakouts, aimed at adults and teens who want clearer skin without excessive dryness.

This wash doubles as a light physical scrub, using fine bamboo grit alongside its acid blend rather than relying on chemical exfoliation alone. Shea butter and tea tree extract are folded in to offset the drying effect glycolic and salicylic acid can have with frequent use, and the brand suggests limiting use to two to five times a week rather than daily.

• 10% glycolic acid plus salicylic acid
• Bamboo grit for physical exfoliation
• Shea butter and tea tree extract added
• Brand-recommended 2 to 5 uses per week

Who it's for

Suits people managing hormonal or occasional breakouts who also want mild resurfacing for texture and dark spots. Less suited to anyone with very reactive or broken skin, since it combines two acids plus a physical scrub in one step.

Pros and cons

Performance notes

The 10% glycolic acid loosens the bond between dead skin cells while salicylic acid works inside the pore, and the bamboo-based grit adds mechanical exfoliation on top of that chemical action. Because three exfoliating mechanisms stack in one wash, the brand's own guidance to use it two to five times a week rather than every day is the more realistic routine.
