Executive Summary
ALMAY STAY CLEAN PORE STRIPS WITH .7% SALICYLIC ACID coat black heads and prevent them from returning, the Revlon division said. By including a small but "effective" amount of salicylic acid in the formula, Almay is positioning its pore strip version as a blackhead preventer, as well as a treatment product. According to labeling, Almay pore strips contain a "medicated clean pore complex" that not only removes blackheads but also "helps [keep] them from coming back." The curved pore strips can be applied to any part of the face, giving Stay Clean strips a more universal appeal than competing products, according to Almay.
