Stridex Sensitive Pad Care Soft Touch

Clear stubborn blackheads, smooth bumpy closed comedones, and prevent breakouts without stripping your skin—Stridex Sensitive Soft Touch Acne Control Pads (55 Pads Green Tub)! Tailored specifically for sunny coastal climate and outdoor lifestyle—where intense UV exposure, sunscreen build-up, hot humid summers, and outdoor sweat clog pores with sticky oxidized sebum—this iconic American dermatologist-recommended treatment provides effective, gentle daily exfoliation. Formulated with 0.5% active Salicylic Acid (BHA), it effortlessly penetrates lipid-rich follicles to dissolve dead skin cells, unclog trapped pores, and loosen stubborn blackheads. Unlike traditional harsh astringents, Stridex is 100% alcohol-free to effectively treat breakouts without dry, stinging irritation, and is infused with natural Aloe Vera leaf juice to soothe redness and restore balance. Paired with dual-textured soft cotton pads (a textured waffle side for physical exfoliating and a smooth side for gentle wiping), it delivers clearer, refined skin across your face, chest, and back!

0.5% Gentle Salicylic Acid (BHA): Optimal beginner-friendly concentration penetrates deep into pore sebum to dissolve keratin plugs, clear blackheads, and prevent new blemishes from forming.

100% Alcohol-Free & Non-Drying: Free from ethyl alcohol, eliminating burning stinging, tightness, and peeling common with traditional astringents.

Infused with Soothing Aloe Vera: Botanical aloe extract calms skin irritation, hydrates parched barrier layers, and soothes redness caused by outdoor heat and sweat.

Dual-Textured Soft-Touch Cotton Pad: Textured side sweeps away trapped oil and surface flakes; smooth side finishes with a soothing layer of clarifying solution.

Triple-Action Formula (Cleans, Treats, Prevents): Thoroughly wipes away residual sunscreen and sweat, treats active pimples, and keeps pores clear with regular use.

Multi-Zone Clarifying Treatment: Highly effective for face, strawberry nose, bumpy chin, as well as body acne on the chest, shoulders, and back.

Recommended For: Gentle daily pore clearing, beginner acid exfoliation, evening double-cleansing prep, and strawberry nose smoothing.

Step 1 (Cleanse First): Cleanse the skin thoroughly with a gentle facial cleanser and pat completely dry.

Step 2 (Textured Side Sweep): Take one pad and use the textured, embossed side to gently wipe across oily areas—forehead, nose wings, chin, and blemish-prone zones. Avoid direct contact with the eyes and lips.

Step 3 (Smooth Side Finish): Flip to the smooth side and gently wipe across the rest of the face to leave a light, even layer of clarifying essence.

Step 4 (No Rinsing Required): Allow the skin to air-dry naturally for 1 to 2 minutes without washing it off. Follow with a hydrating toner, serum, and moisturizer.

Daytime Reminder: BHA increases sun sensitivity. In the Australian climate, always apply a broad-spectrum high-SPF sunscreen each morning.
