Product overview
Dot & Key Cica Calming Blemish Clearing Gel Face Wash 100ml is a gel face wash formulated with Centella Asiatica (Cica), Salicylic Acid, Zinc PCA, and Tea Tree, intended to help with blemish-prone skin.
Naming note: the brand has since renamed this product line to "Cica + Salicylic" on its official site; this catalog listing uses the original/legacy product name, which refers to the same formula. Percentage note: some retailer listings title this product with a "2% Salicylic Acid" claim; this specific percentage is not confirmed on the official ingredient panel, so it is treated here as a retailer claim rather than a verified fact.
