Replenix Gly-Sal Clarifying Acne Pads, 60 Count — 10% Glycolic & 2% Salicylic Exfoliating Pads

Replenix Gly-Sal Clarifying Acne Pads are pre-soaked exfoliating pads that pair 10% glycolic acid with 2% salicylic acid to help remove surface dead skin, reduce excess oil and support a clearer-looking complexion.

These single-use pads combine two complementary chemical exfoliants in a convenient, no-rinse format to streamline acne-prone skin care. Each pad is infused with a clarifying solution that exfoliates, helps sweep away pore-clogging debris and includes witch hazel to help calm and tone the skin. Designed for straightforward daily use, the pads make it easy to add professional-strength ingredients into your routine without mixing or measuring.

How do these pads work in a daily skincare routine?

Use Gly-Sal pads after cleansing and before any moisturizers or serums. The glycolic acid encourages surface exfoliation while salicylic acid penetrates pores to help loosen trapped oil and debris. Because the pads are pre-soaked, application is quick and consistent, reducing the chance of over- or under-dosing active ingredients.

• Apply to clean, dry skin morning or night.
• Gently sweep over face and affected areas using both sides of the pad.
• Allow to absorb before layering moisturizer or SPF.

Will the formula irritate sensitive or reactive skin?

The combination is potent, so those with sensitive or easily reactive skin should introduce use gradually. Start with every other night or short contact times to assess tolerance. Witch hazel is included to provide soothing and toning benefits, but patch-testing is recommended for new users.

• Begin with limited frequency (e.g., every 2–3 nights).
• Perform a patch test behind the ear or inner arm first.
• Discontinue if persistent redness or severe irritation occurs.

What skin concerns can these pads help address?

Replenix Gly-Sal pads target multiple surface-level issues commonly associated with acne-prone skin: excess oil, visible blemishes, and uneven texture. The dual acids work together to refine rough patches and support a clearer appearance when used consistently as part of a regimen. They are formulated to be non-oily and leave skin feeling refreshed.

• Helps reduce surface oil and help clear blemishes.
• Aids in smoothing uneven or rough skin texture.
• Assists in minimizing the appearance of enlarged pores over time.

How do I use the pads safely with other active treatments?

When combining with other actives—retinoids, vitamin C, or other acids—take a conservative approach to avoid over-exfoliation. Alternate nights or layer products that are known to be compatible, and always follow with a hydrating moisturizer. Use daily sunscreen during daytime use of chemical exfoliants to protect newly revealed skin.

• Avoid layering multiple strong acids on the same night.
• Introduce retinoids slowly when pairing with Gly-Sal pads.
• Wear SPF every morning after using acid-containing products.

Who is this for: Replenix Gly-Sal Clarifying Acne Pads suit people with oily or acne-prone skin who want a convenient, ready-to-use exfoliation step that combines glycolic and salicylic acids. They are ideal for users seeking to refine skin texture, reduce surface oil and manage breakouts without adding heavy or oily products. If you have very sensitive skin or are unsure how strong a 10% glycolic formulation will be for you, start slowly and consult a skincare professional if needed.
