Ingredients Explained
These ingredients are found in both products.
Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.
Water. It's the most common cosmetic ingredient of all. You'll usually see it at the top of ingredient lists, meaning that it makes up the largest part of the product.
So why is it so popular? Water most often acts as a solvent - this means that it helps dissolve other ingredients into the formulation.
You'll also recognize water as that liquid we all need to stay alive. If you see this, drink a glass of water. Stay hydrated!
Learn more about WaterMentha Piperita Oil is the volatile oil obtained from the whole plant of the Peppermint plant.
It can be used to add a fresh scent to products.
Peppermint oil may cause skin sensitivity and redness due to its menthol content. Menthol also has a cooling effect (like your toothpaste).
Learn more about Mentha Piperita OilSalicylic Acid (also known as beta hydroxy acid or BHA) is one of the most well-known ingredients for treating skin that struggles with blackheads and acne. It helps to exfoliate both the skin's surface and pores, and also acts as an anti-inflammatory agent.
This multitasking property makes it a great ingredient for cleaning out pores, controlling oil production, and reducing inflammation.
Unlike AHAs which are water soluble, Salicylic Acid is oil soluble. This means that it's able to exfoliate the inside of pores and reduce blackheads.
Concentrations of 0.5-2% are recognized by the U.S. FDA as an over-the-counter topical acne product.
It can cause irritation and/or dryness if one's skin already has a compromised moisture barrier, so it's best to focus on repairing that before introducing a Salicylic Acid into your routine.
In general, Salicylic Acid is a great ingredient for oily acne-prone skin.
While salicylic acid does not increase sun-sensitivity, we still recommend wearing SPF.

-cooling sensation during cleansing because peppermint is one of the ingredient
-expensive, can find other cheaper dupes in more affordable range
Caudalie Vinopure Pore Purifying Gel Cleanser 25 ingredients
I really like this product as many other from the "Vinopure" line. It's specially formulated for oily/acne-prone skin including Salicylic Acid, among other ingredients that have helped me control some of my blackheads and milder acne (it obviously won't help with deep cysts, you'll need more than a cleanser for that). In my opinion, is gentle enough to be used every day (not more than once), but Show more
Je l'utilise depuis quelques mois. Ma peau semble un peu plus nette mais je ne vois pas de réelle amélioration sur les imperfections en tant que telle. J'aime beaucoup l'odeur mais elle peut être sûrement dérangeante pour certains .
