has anyone else ever had a reaction to salicylic acid?
Posted: Apr 15, 2011
Just curious. I've been using clinique for years and have had reasonable results. Because I live in a very unpredictable climate, my skin is hardly consistent. I was breaking out a lot and so used another one of their acne products that has a higher concentration of SA. Anyways, now i've had a reaction where my skin is quite irritated, can be red sometimes, and feels like its burning. I've done some research on remedies....does anyone else have suggestions or remedies? i'm sure that it will just take time and in the meantime I've been drinking lots of water, tea, so on.

Clinique's astringent has witch hazel (sm) - Yochana
[ In Reply To ..]in it and when I used it my face turned beet red, burned like fire, and swelled up. So, yes, you easily could be allergic to the SA. I have heard that moistened tea bags can help swelling, irritation. Another thing that would really help would be silvadene. You can get this OTC now. Doctors are just now finding out it is good for many things besides burns. My pharmacist (he has little kids) says he uses it for everything. Hope you're feeling better soon!

[ In Reply To ..]I've never heard of it and have many of the same problems you and the OP have - am definitely interested in trying it!
Silvadene...sm - Mary
[ In Reply To ..]is a cream. My husband had to use it on his foot when he got a blister that wouldn't heal. It's mostly used for burns. The doc had to prescribe it for him. You might get it OTC but I've never seen it. It does work really good.
