SM Peel – Dual-Action Exfoliating and Strong keratolytic Acid Peel

SM peel contains salicylic acid and mandelic acid. It is a professional-strength chemical exfoliation solution available to order online across Pakistan. It has a strong keratolytic effect and mainly targets active acne.

This dual-acid peel combines the pore-penetrating power of salicylic acid with the gentle, surface-level exfoliation of mandelic acid, making it suitable for oily, acne-prone, and combination skin types.

Manufactured under global cosmetic quality frameworks to ensure reliable and safe use, the formulation is supported with soothing agents to allow effective exfoliation.

Available Form and Pack Size
SM Peel is available in liquid form as a chemical peel in 15 ml (0.50 fl oz ℮).

Composition

This peel is formulated with a synergistic blend of beta hydroxy acid and alpha hydroxy acid, supported by functional excipients for balanced performance.

Salicylic Acid 20%

Salicylic acid 20% penetrates deep into pores to dissolve excess sebum, unclog blackheads and whiteheads, and reduce acne-causing congestion. It is used to target active acne, oily skin, comedones, and inflammatory breakouts while supporting clear pores and reduced blemish recurrence.

Mandelic Acid 22%

Mandelic acid 22% provides controlled surface exfoliation with slower skin penetration. At this strength, mandelic acid helps improve uneven tone, refine texture, support post-acne mark reduction, and enhance skin clarity with a lower irritation profile compared to stronger AHAs.

Glycerine – acts as a humectant to help retain moisture and reduce excessive dryness during exfoliation.

PEG – functions as a solubilizing and penetration-balancing agent to ensure uniform acid distribution on the skin.

Tea Tree Oil – provides antimicrobial and soothing properties, supporting acne control and helping calm acne-prone skin during treatment.

pH Range
pH 1.0 – 2.5
