NeoStrata Targeted Clarifying Gel
Ready, aim, clarify! This targeted, triple-action treatment gel is formulated with an Alpha Hydroxy Acid (AHA) blend of Acetyl Mandelic Acid, Citric Acid, and Tartaric Acid, combined with Salicylic Acid to exfoliate the buildup of dead skin cells, reducing the look of shine and helping keep pores clear of impurities. Salicylic Acid clarifies pores, exfoliates, reduces oiliness, and minimizes pore appearance. Mandelic Acid, found naturally in almonds, is an oil-loving AHA, making it ideal for oily skin. It also helps reduce the look of oily shine over time. If you're looking for a spot treatment, you will love Targeted Clarifying Gel. This triple-acid pore treatment directly targets clogged pores with exfoliation to help restore clarity. Apply to affected areas twice daily. It is recommended that prior to exposure to the sun, users cover areas where AHAs have been applied with sunscreen. Pro Tip: Layer your favorite NEOSTRATA® serum or treatment product over the entire face after applying Targeted Clarifying Gel on affected areas. Follow with sunscreen during daytime use. ### Evidence-Based Efficacy For more information on the efficacy of the ingredients, refer to the following studies: Study Title.
