T-Beauty Breakthrough: Not All Salicylic Acids Are Created Equal

T-Beauty has become the gold standard in skincare innovation, and DermaAngel is at the forefront of this movement in Australia. Thanks to the DermaAngel Pore Clear Pads, the brand is setting new benchmarks in how active ingredients like salicylic acid are formulated and delivered to skin. While many products boast salicylic acid as their hero ingredient, few harness its full potential as effectively as DermaAngel.

Formulating Chemist and Scientist Rita Sellars from PH Factor explains that the type, purity, and delivery method of salicylic acid are critical to whether it works effectively on skin. Rita explains, "Salicylic acid is one of the most powerful ingredients for treating congestion, refining pores, and preventing breakouts. But not all salicylic acids are the same. The source, concentration, and formulation determine how well the ingredient penetrates the skin, how gentle it is, and how consistently it performs."

According to Sellars, many mass-market products use lower-quality or less stable forms of salicylic acid, which can cause irritation, dryness, or simply fail to deliver results. DermaAngel's formulation is different:

• Superior Grade Salicylic Acid - Carefully sourced to ensure purity and efficacy.
• Optimised Concentration - Gentle enough for daily use yet powerful enough to deliver visible results.
• Smart Delivery System - Designed to penetrate deep into pores, where congestion and breakouts begin.

"As a formulating chemist, I look beyond the label to how ingredients are sourced, stabilised, and delivered and DermaAngel gets it right. Their Pore Clear Pads use a refined grade of salicylic acid, optimised for skin penetration and daily tolerability, which is crucial when targeting congestion and preventing breakouts. What sets this formulation apart is not just the inclusion of salicylic acid, but the delivery system and the thoughtful pairing with barrier-supportive ingredients like ceramides and hyaluronic acid. It's a smart, well-balanced solution that respects the skin's integrity while delivering visible results, something I really appreciate seeing in this category," said Rita.

The DermaAngel Pore Clear Pads embody this science-driven approach. Each pre-soaked pad delivers a controlled dose of salicylic acid, combined with Niacinamide and Hyaluronic Acid that calm and care for the skin. The result is a product that not only clears pores and prevents future breakouts but also supports overall skin balance - a hallmark of T-Beauty philosophy.
