Neutrogena Body Acne Spray 2% Salicylic Acid Fragrance-Free — Back & Chest Treatment, Easy Inverted Nozzle (5.5 fl oz)

Neutrogena Stubborn Body Acne Spray is a fragrance-free, 2% salicylic acid body treatment designed to clear and help prevent breakouts on hard-to-reach areas like the back and chest.

This spray delivers a concentrated beta-hydroxy acid (salicylic acid) formula in an easy-to-use aerosol so you can treat blemishes where they appear most—on shoulders, upper back and chest—without the mess of creams or the difficulty of reaching problem spots. Dermatologist-tested and suitable for daily use, the product is formulated to penetrate pores, calm visible redness, and help reduce future breakouts when used consistently. The nozzle is designed to apply evenly, even when inverted, making it practical for routine use during your skincare regimen.

How does this spray treat stubborn body acne?

The active ingredient is 2% salicylic acid, a BHA that helps exfoliate inside pores and loosen debris that can contribute to pimples and blemishes. Regular application helps address existing spots while reducing the conditions that lead to new breakouts. The spray format allows coverage of larger areas quickly and precisely.

• Contains 2% salicylic acid (BHA) to penetrate pores and exfoliate
• Fragrance-free formula to minimize potential irritation
• Aerosol sprayer lets you apply a thin, even layer over back and chest

How quickly will I see improvement and what results are realistic?

Many users observe calmer-looking skin and reduced redness within about one week of consistent use, though individual responses can vary. The spray targets surface blemishes and helps reduce factors that trigger new breakouts, so visible improvement typically increases with continued use. Avoid expecting immediate clearing of deep cystic acne—longer treatment and complementary care routines may be needed.

• Visible reduction in redness and inflamed spots often within one week
• Best results with regular, up-to-three-times-daily application
• Works on surface blemishes and helps reduce recurrence when used consistently

How do I use the spray safely and effectively?

Start with clean, dry skin and apply a thin layer of spray to the affected area; the nozzle can be used upside down to reach the middle of the back. Use up to three times daily if tolerated, and avoid applying to broken or severely irritated skin. If you use other topical treatments or exfoliants, introduce this product gradually to monitor tolerance.

• Cleanse and dry skin before application for best absorption
• Spray a thin layer; the canister works inverted for hard-to-reach spots
• If irritation occurs, reduce frequency or pause use and consult a professional
