What Else You Need to Know

When I created U.F.O., I wanted to make a dry oil that essentially vanishes into the skin, leaving oily skin smooth (but never greasy) and successfully treating blackheads and imperfections.” Salicylic acid is infamously very drying. By adding salicylic acid to clarifying oils, the drying effects are prevented while all the therapeutic benefits are fully realized. Riley, Sunday.

This fast-drying oil absorbs in seconds, making it ideal for daytime or nighttime use without any heavy or sticky feel.
