Skin Cafe My Therapist Serum Pore Perfect 30ml30ml

Key Ingredients

Skin Cafe My Therapist Serum – Pore Perfect's ingredient list is corroborated across two independent sources (a retailer and the independent ingredient-analysis database SkinSort): Aqua, Disodium EDTA, Salicylic Acid, Niacinamide, Sodium Hyaluronate, Butylene Glycol, 1,3-Propanediol, Glycerin, Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer, Xanthan Gum, Potassium Hydroxide, Camellia Sinensis (Green Tea) Leaf Extract, and Phenoxyethanol. The retailer explicitly discloses active concentrations of 5% Niacinamide and 0.5% Salicylic Acid, with the independent ingredient database confirming that 0.5% falls within the commonly recognized concentration range for a Salicylic Acid (BHA) product. This is one of the more transparently and consistently documented ingredient panels in this batch.

Key Features

Skin Cafe is a registered Bangladeshi limited company based in Dhaka. This serum is positioned around pore appearance and sebum control, built on a combination of 0.5% Salicylic Acid (a beta-hydroxy acid, or BHA) and 5% Niacinamide, supported by Sodium Hyaluronate for hydration and Green Tea Leaf Extract for additional antioxidant support. We note that the official Skin Cafe website's direct product page did not load successfully when we checked it, so this ingredient information rests on the retailer and independent-database sources described above rather than a live citation from the brand's own site, though the two sources agree exactly with each other.

Benefits

This is one of the better-substantiated products in our current research: Salicylic Acid (BHA) at 0.5% is a legitimate, evidence-supported ingredient for helping clear pores and reduce the appearance of enlarged pores, Niacinamide at 5% supports sebum regulation and the skin's barrier function, Sodium Hyaluronate provides hydration, and Green Tea Extract offers antioxidant support with some evidence for sebum-related benefits. Marketing claims of reduced pore appearance, sebum control, and hydration are reasonably well aligned with the disclosed active ingredients and their typical mechanisms of action as described in dermatological literature, though individual results can still vary.

Who Can Use This Product

Because this serum contains Salicylic Acid, an exfoliating acid, the retailer recommends introducing it gradually and using it in the evening, along with an 18+ age guidance. We recommend following this guidance. As with any exfoliating-acid product, individuals with sensitive or reactive skin should patch-test before regular use and consider starting with less frequent application. The brand did not make a specific statement about use during pregnancy or breastfeeding; as a general precaution, we recommend consulting a doctor before use in these circumstances, since Salicylic Acid products are sometimes advised against during pregnancy by healthcare providers.

How to Use

Apply a few drops to clean, dry skin, ideally in the evening as part of a nighttime skincare routine, gently patting or massaging until absorbed. Given the Salicylic Acid content, we recommend introducing this serum gradually (for example, every other night at first) and monitoring for irritation or dryness before increasing to nightly use. Follow with a moisturizer as needed. Always follow the specific instructions printed on the product packaging.

Storage & Safety

Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Keep out of reach of children. Discontinue use and consult a doctor if irritation, redness, or excessive dryness develops. Avoid contact with the eyes. This product contains Phenoxyethanol, a preservative with some mild allergen potential for sensitive users; individuals with known sensitivities to Phenoxyethanol or Salicylic Acid should patch-test before regular use. As noted above, the retailer recommends this product for evening use and ages 18 and older; please follow the guidance printed on your specific product packaging.
