hi. i am not sure about the safety of salicylic acid, but we are TTC and I am using Neutrogena Anti-blemish/Anti-wrinkle products. They are the FIRST OTC products to work for me, and I have tried everything, every brand. Proactive, skintactix, clinique...etc. Anyway, I use biore exfoliating make up removing wipes to get my make-up off. I use the Neut. cleanser, scrub, & moisturizer 2 times a day. I wash my face in the shower b/c the steam/heat seems to make the products work better than they do at the sink. I also have switched to mineral makeup and can tell a difference. I know how bad the fertility meds can mess with your face. It's depressing. I hope some of this helps.
Good luck
also--I highly recommend microdermabrasion. it's costly but great!
