Highlights

Description

The Inkey List Omega Water Cream is a cream formulated with salicylic acid. Per the brand, it contains 2% salicylic acid, an oil-soluble exfoliant that works beneath the skin's surface to help unclog pores, target blackheads and reduce excess oil. The formula also includes aloe, vitamin C, ceramides, hyaluronic acid and niacinamide. Hyaluronic acid is a humectant that attracts water to the skin, while ceramides support the skin barrier.

Per the brand, the oil-soluble salicylic acid can penetrate deeper to help reduce pore appearance and fight breakouts. The brand positions this product for oily skin. According to retailer listings, the cream is oil-free, silicone-free, fragrance-free and cruelty-free.

If you have reactive skin, a patch test is wise before full use, as salicylic acid can be drying or irritating for some users. This is an active treatment that combines exfoliation with hydration, so you may be able to streamline your routine. Use sunscreen during the day, as exfoliating actives can increase sun sensitivity.
