Introduction

Salicylic acid, also known as o-hydroxybenzoic acid, is a component with a structure similar to β-hydroxy acid, which can not only soften the stratum corneum, but also loosen the horn plugs to unclog pores, as well as certain antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects.

Salicylic acid is not easily soluble in water, but is easily soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol, ether, propanol, and turpentine. It exists in willow bark, white pearl leaves, and sweet birch in nature, and is the “anti-inflammatory drug” of plants.

The ancient Greek physician Hippocrates documented the medicinal properties of willow bark in the 5th century BC. This knowledge was repeatedly quoted by famous Greek and Roman physicians such as Galen.
