Paula’s Choice Salycylic Acid percentage

Does anyone know what percentage of Salycylic acid is in either of these? The website doesn’t say. I’m trying to figure out when best to use them, but the site doesn’t say. Thank you so much for your help!

My thought process is that anything containing salicylic acid that is not specifically disclosed the concentration is going to be quite low generally. Especially when it comes to products that have other actives as the main/primary active (for example the azelaic Acid Booster clearly states its 10% as its the star ingredient in this, salicylic is more of a "bonus") in Canada salicylic acid can not be sold otc any higher than 2% and thats usually what the max concentration is in anything unlisted or as an ingredient further down the idnc list (from what Ive noticed anyways). Thats another way to judge. Ingredients are listed in order of highest amount to lowest amount, the further towards the end of the list, the lower the amount. Id be very surprised if the Paula's Choice website didn't explain the exact concentrations of each active, especially chem exfoliants. Take a look there maybe?

I did check the website, it doesn’t have it, and when I used the chat feature it said they can’t disclose due to it being a proprietary blend. I had assumed it would be anywhere from 0.5 to 1% , but this was just a last ditch effort in case anyone had any info. Thank you!

Which country's site did you visit? The uk one has some major differences to the US, and even the US to Can one are different! Let me see if I can scrounge it up

The azelaic Acid Booster has.5% and im guessing the Antioxidant is under.5% I fell asleep while looking for it lol The Antioxidant had 36 ingredients (according to the Paula's Choice india site- some countries may use slight ingredient variations based on legality, sourcing, and demographic/cultural values in their respective markets) salicylic acid is ingredient #30 out of 36, there's probably next to no salicylic in it as 29 other ingredients are above it

Thank you so much!!! I truly appreciate you taking the time to search this for me. I don’t know how I missed this during my previous search cause I had used the American website
