About this product
Description
CLENZIderm MD Pore Therapy is a liquid exfoliant built around 2% salicylic acid, a beta hydroxy acid that works within the pore lining. Swept over freshly cleansed skin, it helps loosen congestion and clear away dead surface cells so the complexion looks fresher and more even.
Obagi recommends it for normal to oily skin that is prone to blemishes. Salicylic acid helps reduce the look of surface oil, while regular use leaves pores looking more refined and texture feeling smoother. It is designed to stay on the skin rather than be rinsed away.

How to use
Shake well.

If skin becomes too dry or flaky, cut back to once a day or every other day. Follow with a broad-spectrum SPF in the morning.
FAQs
Which skin types is it suited to?
Obagi positions it for normal to oily skin that tends towards blemishes and visible pores. Drier or more sensitive skin may find it too drying, so a patch test is sensible.
How often should I use it?
Start with one application a day and increase gradually only if your skin is comfortable. Reduce frequency if you notice dryness or peeling.
Does it contain alcohol?
Yes. The ingredient list includes SD alcohol 40-B along with menthol, which gives a cooling feel on application.
