Viktairy Salicylic Acid Powder 130 g — Ultra-Pure Cosmetic-Grade BHA, No Additives, DIY Exfoliant

Viktairy Salicylic Acid Powder (130 g) is an ultra-pure, cosmetic-grade BHA powder designed for DIY cleansers, toners, lotions, masks and haircare formulations.

This ingredient is 2-hydroxybenzoic acid at greater than 99.5% purity and arrives free of fillers or additives, sealed to preserve potency. Salicylic acid is oil-soluble and commonly used by formulators to help exfoliate surface skin, clear debris from pores and refine texture when incorporated at recommended concentrations. Viktairy supplies clear handling guidance, solvent suggestions and storage directions so you can blend it into custom products with confidence.

How should I dissolve Viktairy salicylic acid for safe use?

Because salicylic acid is oil soluble, dissolve it in a compatible solvent before adding to water-based formulas. Popular solvents include ethyl alcohol, propylene glycol, glycerin, castor oil and sodium lactate; warming and grinding speeds dissolution and reduces residue.

• Grind crystals to a fine powder before mixing.
• Heat the solvent-salicylic mix gently to 48–54°C (120–130°F) to aid solubility.
• Consider adding sodium citrate to prevent recrystallization after cooling.

What concentration and pH work best for formulations?

Viktairy recommends using salicylic acid between 0.2% and 2% depending on product type and skin tolerance. The molecule performs optimally in mildly acidic conditions, so pH adjustment can improve activity and stability.

• Typical range: 0.2%–2% for cleansers, toners and leave-on products.
• Target pH: about 3.5–4.0 for best performance in many formulations.
• Use citric acid to lower pH or baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) to raise pH carefully, testing final product pH after adjustment.

What safety steps and storage practices should I follow?

Salicylic acid is a concentrated active ingredient; handle it with protective gear and keep it away from eyes and mucous membranes. Viktairy packages the powder in a double-sealed jar to limit exposure and moisture ingress, and the powder is non-toxic, vegan, gluten-free and non‑GMO when used as directed.

• Use gloves and a mask when measuring and mixing to avoid inhalation or skin contact.
• Perform a patch test on a small skin area prior to broad application and discontinue if irritation occurs.
• Store in an airtight container away from heat and direct sunlight, in a cool, dry place and out of reach of children.

Which product types can I make with this salicylic acid powder?

Viktairy’s cosmetic-grade powder is formulated for versatile use in both rinse-off and leave-on products when correctly dissolved and neutralized. It is suitable for cleansers, toners, spot treatments, masks, shampoos and other personal-care formulations, provided concentrations and pH are appropriate.

• DIY face washes, chemical peels and toners (observe recommended percent and pH).
• Body washes, serums and lotions—ensure full dissolution in the chosen solvent first.
• Shampoos or scalp treatments where oil solubility aids penetration into sebum-rich areas.

This powder is ideal for home formulators, small-batch cosmetic makers or educators who need a high‑purity BHA raw material without additives. If you are new to active ingredient handling, follow Viktairy’s included instructions and consult formulation resources or experienced practitioners to fine-tune concentration, solvent choice and pH. Always prioritize safety: wear protective gear, run a patch test and keep products labeled and out of reach of children.
