How should I introduce this salicylic acid cream into my skincare routine?

Introduce IDEE DERM Anti-Acne Cream gradually rather than using it too often from the first day. Salicylic acid has exfoliating action, so skin that is sensitive, dry in places, or new to acids may need time to adapt. A practical approach is to begin on problem zones only, such as the nose, chin or forehead, and observe how the skin feels over several applications before using it on the whole face.

Apply it to clean, dry facial skin and avoid the eye area, lips and any broken or irritated skin. Because the product has a light, non-greasy cream texture, it can fit under sunscreen or makeup once absorbed. If your skin becomes tight, flaky or visibly red, reduce how often you use it or pause until the skin feels comfortable again. Do not try to “push through” irritation, as over-exfoliating blemish-prone skin can make it look and feel worse.

For a balanced routine, pair it with a gentle cleanser and a simple moisturising step if needed. Avoid introducing several strong actives at the same time, especially other exfoliating acids or retinoids, because this increases the chance of dryness, peeling and sensitivity.
