Salicylic acid / BHA: ACOG says over-the-counter salicylic acid products may be used if needed, but absorption rises with frequent use or large areas; avoid high-strength peels (MotherToBaby/ACOG, Bozzo et al. 2011).

Is it OK for kids and teens?
Kids (ages 3–11)
Use with care
- Acne treatment (Capryloyl Salicylic Acid, Salicylic Acid): Benzoyl peroxide, salicylic acid, and adapalene treat acne well, but for children under 12 it's best to check with a doctor first, and to start gently.
- Exfoliating acid (AHA) (Lactic Acid, Glycolic Acid): Glycolic, lactic, and mandelic acids can irritate young skin, and children rarely need them. We can't see the strength, so low amounts are flagged too.
- Vitamin C active (Ascorbic Acid): Dermatologists say children don't need vitamin C serums and that they can cause redness, burning, or peeling on young skin (American Academy of Dermatology, American Academy of Pediatrics). We can't see the strength, so low amounts are flagged too.
Teens (ages 12–17)
Use with care
- Exfoliating acid (AHA) (Lactic Acid, Glycolic Acid): Glycolic, lactic, and mandelic acids can irritate, especially alongside acne treatments. Fine for some teens, used a few times a week.
Helps with acne: Capryloyl Salicylic Acid, Salicylic Acid, Niacinamide.
