Clobetasol propionate is a potent corticosteroid used to treat inflammatory skin conditions such as eczema and psoriasis by reducing inflammation and itching. It should be applied sparingly and under medical supervision to minimize the risk of side effects like skin thinning and discoloration. Various formulations are available, including creams, ointments, and foams, tailored to the specific needs of the condition being treated.
Salicylic acid is a beta hydroxy acid (BHA) commonly used in skincare products for its ability to exfoliate the skin and treat various skin conditions such as acne, psoriasis, and dandruff. It works by breaking down the outer layer of the skin, helping to unclog pores, reduce inflammation, and promote skin cell turnover. When using salicylic acid, it’s important to follow product instructions carefully to avoid overuse, which can lead to skin irritation and dryness.
